    Please no jokes about OC and MSNBC :) So I have a super basic package now, but I still have tuning adapters on my two Bolts. MSNBC was working fine yesterday, this morning it won't tune at all on either Bolt. It either shows static or some shadow of the previously tuned channel. It does work...

    I am selling these dirt cheap! I have 1200 of them. They are selling on eBay for 150 each prior to my posting. 59.95 each and I am offering a 60 day return period on them. Feel free to ask any questions! I am willing to discount a bulk offer! Western Digital WD30NPRZ-00YRMT0 WX21 3TB SATA 2.5"...

    I have a pair of 3TB Bolt+ units (long story). One is in normal use and one is emergency spare. The main unit failed and I will be ordering an external 3TB Tivo-formatted drive from Weakknees. I want that unit to return to being the primary unit so that the stupid 2.5" HDD in the backup unit...

    I'm hoping someone has some ideas for how I can fix what started slowly (in two rooms) but is now a whole house issue. I have two main Tivos, a Romio Pro (downstairs) and a Bolt (upstairs). I also have several minis upstairs for other rooms. The units were all connected using Moca using the...

    Hi All, So my TiVo Bold+ got the flashing lights for the 2nd time in 4 years. 2 years after purchasing the Bolt+, I got the flashing lights which TiVo did a swap on it. Fast forward 2 years later, and I am back at it again. I called TiVo and was told they don't have any to swap, but was able to...

    I have read here that four flashing lights means the hard drive has died. Original hard drive WD Blue 3TB model WD30NPRZ. I was unable to find a 2.5" 3TB internal drive so I picked up a Toshiba MQ03ABB200 2TB drive. I installed it and now I have a green light, but no signal. Bolt also has a...

    Anyone know how long it normally takes a Bolt to run the "Clear Program Information and To Do List" function? It claims it is "up to an hour", but its over 90 minutes so far and no idea if it is actually doing anything since there is no progress bar, etc. I know sometimes these things take a lot...

    I have a Bolt+ with a failed drive. TiVo support stated they were no longer replacing drives or units for the Bolt. They offered to replace my Bolt+ with an Edge (cable version.) This seemed like a downgrade to me for the following reasons: the Bolt+ does both cable and OTA recording (the Edge...

    I have a Bolt+ with a 3TB. Pretty sure its dying. The Bolt tried to reboot, ended up with all the lights flashing. Pulled the drive, it seems to be "fine" Grabbed a 4TB as 3TBs are stupid expense and I saw people say they work in them. Got WINMFS, running it on an XP machine. Basically...

    Soooo is anyone else having problems with the 30-second skip button? I've had TiVos for as long as I can remember -- at least 10 years. The first thing I do when I get a new one is to program the instant skip button (during playback, pressing Select – Play – Select – 3 – 0 – Select). Well...

    This thread is to discuss the problem of why certain HDDs do not work with the Bolt. So far with my limited data points, my current hypothesis is that drives that do not support the streaming command set are the problems. As more data points are collected, we can evaluate this hypothesis further.

    I have a 2 yea old Bolt + that got the 4 LED Flash last week. I'm attempting to install a new drive without copying anything from the old drive (since it's dead). Although I was unable to find a thread about this use case (there are many about migrating data from driveOld to driveNew) I got the...
  14. TiVo Bolt DVR/Streamer
    Hi all, Our two years old Bolt+ 1GB just died with four front LEDS flashing constantly and searching around it seems that this is a hard driver failure (?). Any recommendation for a replacement hard drive? 1GB is more than sufficient for us but I am looking for a reliable drive, preferably...
  15. TiVo Help Center
    Any help here would be great. I've not had three Spectrum Techs, and two TiVo Customer Support calls, all to no avail. As much as I love turning off, unplugging, resetting, replugging and testing network connections, what I like even more is when something works. So far, nada. I won't show you...

    This happened twice so far this morning. Charter inserts Emergency Alert System tests at random times. Their weekly tests happen nearly every day. Both times today my Bolt+ went into restart mode at the end of the test. Anyone have an idea what’s going on?
  17. TiVo Bolt DVR/Streamer
    I looked (a lot) before posting. Can anyone please provide me the HEX codes for ADVANCE and REPLAY for a Bolt+ and Tivo Mini ? I bought a Harmony One remote, and every button works.. except 30-second ADVANCE (SKIP) and 10 Second REPLAY. Logitech says when I can provide these to them, they will...
  18. TiVo Coffee House - TiVo Discussion
    So I called TiVo on Sept 5 with a Bolt+ that had 4 flashing lights on it and would no longer boot. The box was about 11 months old. They agreed to replace it with a new one (for a $50 fee), and gave me option to pay a deposit on the new box to have to have it shipped right away and then refund...
  19. TiVo Help Center
    My Bolt+ died & TiVo sent me a new one. Any way to get the old recordings to the new drive? Old drive went dark, can hear drive spinning, but no lights, no output, or broadcast to WAN. Have to send back old unit in a couple of weeks. TIA
  20. TiVo Bolt DVR/Streamer
    What is the current best way to be able to stream my TiVo bolt to a TV at the other end? I routinely go back and forth to another country and want to be able to watch live TV while I'm there. My understanding is that you used to be able to do this via a Fire TV app, but that's been discontinued...
