Yes I quickly started three programs recording this morning and then tried to change channel and the cancel recording warning came up so it all seems to be working. It will be interesting if the recordings already set up will still clip as if there are only two tuners available

It should have rescheduled everything. When I checked this morning it had set a recording for a film on Sunday that wouldn't record due to a clash when I set it via the website yesterday.

Ooh, so it actually allows three programs to be recorded at once then? Rather than just record two and watch a third live?

Hi all
Just a quick note to say that we upgraded your boxes overnight with enhanced software including activation of the Third Tuner.
This means you'll be able to record 2 programmes and watch live TV on another channel, or record 3 live programmes, or record 3 live programmes while also watching something you've pre-recorded!
There are also various other small fixes going in.
You don't need to do anything - you should find that your box has been automatically upgraded.
I hope you continue to enjoy using your service.

A slightly more comprehensive change list might have been nice.

In the software update thread it was mentioned that someone from Virgin had posted in their forum that Alex Green would provide more details in a later post... I'm guessing this is the 'more details'....
Where did you get notice of a better change list on the way?

In one of the posts in the "Bugs and wishes sticky/stickies" thread.

http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb...71#post8433571
Still can't find any mention in the bugs/features stickies.....
I don't think we're getting any more detail from VM tbh.

Sorry. Mis-read the link and I thought there was more than that on the VM Forums.

We seem to have more useable hard drive space too - my % used has dropped a good few points without anything being deleted. Over on the Virgin newsgroup people have reported HD recordings now up to 121 hours (from 99)

Yep. As mentioned elsewhere, recording time has increased to 121 HD and 477 SD. I think it's just more accurate rather than an actual increase
