My tivoHD just got an update, 8.1.7b.

Anyone know what this fixes?

 

[megazone]

Perhaps it addresses the macroblocking?

Hopefully it fixes the pixelization issues associated with Scientific Atlanta CableCards in the second slot...

Update: Looks like that is exactly what it does.

A user in another thread indicated that it fixed the Scientific Atlanta 2nd cable card slot issue.

At least Tivo responded fairly quickly.

Just forced a call. Afterword it was "pending restart" with the new software. Hopefully this will fix my pixelation issue. Good for Tivo to respond so quickly.

Firmware update fixed my slot 2 pixelation issue with Cox Cable SA single stream cards. Glad my install was today and only had one day to deal with this.

^ ah nice.. ignore my previous question then in the other thread.

Wow nice job TiVo software guys. :up:

My thoughts exactly. I've yet to get home, upgrade to a 750gb drive <crosses fingers for WinMFS coming out>, and get it running. Here I was worried about it. I hope this -stays- fixed.

I received the update as well-- I noticed this morning that both the 480i and 720p format lights were shown on the front of the box- (I have it set to fixed 720p) I changed the display to 480i, then back to 720p, and it fixed the problem.... I also noticed that it deleted the name of my Tivo-- no big deal, but I found that a bit odd....

Anyone else have a similar experience?

I have been using OTA antenna, and analog cable-- so far I've been thrilled with it!
Cable card(s) install scheduled for tomorrow.....

Deleted the name of my Tivo Here also...

This is excellent news. Kudos to Tivo for getting this fix out so quickly!

 

[frostrambler]

Wow, nice going Tivo!

 

[jsmiley125]

But, is the update actually working and fixing the issue? Can anyone who has the CC #2 pixelation issue and the TiVo update verify it works now?

See post #6.

This fix also fixed the LED issue with the "all off" setting. My Tivo is now completely blank unless a button is pressed.

I was getting ready to return my unit, but now she's staying.

My faith is restored!

Anyone else's reboot twice after the update? I think this is the second time mine has rebooted twice in a row like that. Only got a chance to check it out for a minute this morning but everything looked good, no pixellation. Also, I have Motorola Cable Cards and pixellation, I wouldn't rush to judgement that this is a SA issue completely...

Wow, it usually takes TiVo months to fix bugs. :up: :up: :up:

 

[msgreenf]
