    I currently own the Series 3 Tivo. I recently read that Tivo introduced a new opening animimation in HD for the Series HD Tivo box. Does anyone know how I can get this new opening HD animiation on my Series 3 box? When I go to few my boxes opening animiation its still the standarad, boring short Serieis 3 opening.

    You're probably thinking of the animation included on the TiVo HD boxes. The Series3's animation has not been updated.

    The shorter the better as far as I'm concerned - I'm glad I discovered hitting the "Tivo" button skips the intro completely.

    The opening animation, TMK, cannot be replaced with the software upgrade. The one always get is the one it came with.

    Actually hitting any button once the animation starts will skip it entirely. The only time I watch it is when my 3 year old runs in the room and says "I wanna watch the Tivo Man!!". She just loves that thing.

    The OP must be saving a lot on cable fees by just watching the opening animation.

    Somewhere, someone posted about rebooting the TiVo HD so that his child could enjoy the animation. That's too painful! Just hit TiVo-0 whenever the urge strikes. :up:
