Nope. They don't seem to update the logos very often. They still have the TechTV logo for G4TV (which swallowed TechTV about a year ago).Atomike said:My Tivo shows the NBC logo and the PBS logo (which display for those shows), but not ABC, or CBS, TBS, etc.
If the Tivo doesn't have them now, I'm guessing there's no way to add these myself, right?
Logos are hackable.. but you need to be able to edit the headend (as delivered to your TIVO.. ) That pretty much means you have to be able to do ethernet captures on the traffic heading to your TIVO so you can capture the file etc.davezatz said:I don't know of any way to make the modification. Wonder if it's hackable? By the way, how do those logos get there - Do the networks pay to have them included? Like the OP said, they're not on every channel.
Slightly off-topic, I flipped my HD tuner from OTA to QAM and just about every channel has an ABC logo on it. I guess Comcast is sending the wrong information down the pipe.

TTT... because it's been a while and still nothing has been done about this (that I know of).morac said:They don't seem to update the logos very often. They still have the TechTV logo for G4TV (which swallowed TechTV about a year ago).

I think the issue is TiVo wants to have a deal in place to show a logo. I wish they would just turn logos off instead of doing it half-way. Even cable company dvrs show logos for almost every single channel. Its ridiculous that they don't do something about it. People have been posting these threads for years and the response is always "It's not really a big deal and TiVo shouldn't waste time on it." However, no development time is even needed to fix it. Its purely an administrative issue. It's a shame that no one at TiVo even cares about this.gonzotek said:I don't know how the logos are chosen for inclusion or exclusion: As Dave asked above, do networks pay for the privilege, or is it more like TiVo has to get copyright clearance from many different entities before they can use a logo, or...
While I agree with the bulk and main message of your post, I wouldn't say no one at TiVo cares. I'm sure there are at least a few of their employees who feel the same way about the logos as you and many others when they go home and hit up their NPLs. It's probably more correct to say it's a shame that the right people at TiVo don't care or haven't done more to make the set more complete.rainwater said:It's a shame that no one at TiVo even cares about this.
You may be having other issues. The logos are not slowing down my navigation for me.killme said:I guess my TiVo just got updated, too. For a few minutes the TiVo would not respond when I used the remote. It was not frozen since I could still access it through the network and the background video was still playing. After a few minutes it restarted and I got a bunch of logos that are HUGE, especially the FX logo. It also appears to slow my TiVo down when I browse the menus. I wish I could turn it off.
