Today our Series 2 (540040) started showing snow on virtually all channels. Plug the cable directly into the TV, picture is fine; move the cable to the TiVo and put the TV on Video In and there's snow. The lower channels (2-30 or so) are OK, but by 45 it's awful.
We don't have digital cable, so I don't know how that works. Apparantly in your case the TiVo tunes channels 2-13, and the set-top-box is controlled by the TiVo to tune the higher channels -- correct? If so, aren't those lower channels duplicated in the digital mix? They are for Comcast Digital around here (Puget Sound). If so, you're lucky -- you'll just have to change your tuning habits.
Apparantly my TiVo is toast. And our service contract doesn't expire until next March! Is the tuner module the problem? Is that replaceable? Does anyone sell refurbished TiVos besides Tivo? If so, can I transfer what's left of this contract to the refurbished TiVo?
I think I'm hosed.
