My TiVo has got confused. It thinks I'm in the west country (BBC1WEST and ITV1MER) but the postcode I entered should have resulted in BBC1NE and ITV1TYN. Is there a way I can change it? I'd rather not go through a guided setup again (a) because I'd enter the same data anyway and (2) because it's a pain.

I guess I could just live with it, knowing that it *thinks* it's getting those channels but Sky is giving me the correct channels. One day though there'll be a listing that's only in my correct region and I won't be able to record it.

When I entered the postcode (where A = a letter and n = a number) it came up with AAn pre-entered. Did I do the wrong thing to put in the FULL postcode in the form AAn nAA ?

Can you tell me the post code you entered?

Trying guided setup again, this time without my FULL postcode and instead just the prefix (first half of it) as per this doc:

http://www.tivo.co.uk/3.1.asp#12 ( "Select your postcode prefix" it says)...

As long as the space was in there - it should matter.

If you tell me your postcode I can check it is correctly set.

Sent postcode via PM

edit: repeated guided setup with only prefix part of postcode, made no difference.

Which platform have you selected?

Are both the aerial channels and you selected platform wrong?

The options I got for the provided postcode are:
NTL Teeside
Freeview - Yorkshire/Tyne Tees
Freeview - Tyne Tees

As you are using Sky - you have to go into 'Channels I Receive' and deselect/select the correct regions.

On Sky - all the regions are there and you have to select the correct ones.

Thanks ozsat, but I'd already done that. I've attached a short video. It shows the channel preferences (channels I receive), note the AER channels are correct so I've entered the right postcode during guided setup. Note the deselected sky regions. I then went into the browse by channel and entered the channel number 103, note how it came up with ITV1MER. I then pressed the Chan Down button and it changed to ITV1TYN. I did the same with 101, it came up BBC1WEST, I pressed chan down and it flipped to BBC1NE.

Here's the video, it's a 3MB .wmv file.

That is a known bug - if you scroll it works.

If you type in a channel number - it takes the first in your channels list - even if you have not selected it.

Fair enough
