Hi there,
I've had a series 1 Tivo for a few years. It's worked well.
I took advantage of a Circuit City special a couple of months ago and have upgraded to a Series 2 box. Hooking it up was easy because I basically removed the old Tivo and put the new one in it's place. Same cables and all.
But, the picture quality on the new box stinks. It's got some snow and the picture is not sharp. The quality is definitely worse than the old box.
I should say that the picture quality for the Tivo menus and startup video is fine. The problem I see is with live TV and recorded video.
I am using RF in, and I tried toggling the option for RF video in the settings and this did not help the situation. I've also tightened all cables.
Any ideas? Could the tuner in the box just be "bad"?
(TV is watchable, but the picture quality is just not as good as I'd expect.)
Thanks.
