Hello...

I have a TiVo XL4 box and everything was working normally this morning. I just turned the TV on after a day of work and instantly felt like I was in 2008. It’s like I all of a sudden have an older version. The format is old and different. I don’t have the video window in the top right corner in TiVo Central. Why would my TiVo automatically downgrade itself? Yes it still works but it is too weird...I will continue to troubleshoot and research but was wondering if anyone has had this happen before and if there is a quick fix!! Thanks in advance!!!

I don't seem to have that menu setting...

I should add that I already reset the box. Current software version says 20.7.4b.RC3-758-2-758

Ok!!!! So I found this on Reddit and believe it's the problem!! Apparently my dad changed this setting over the weekend. We had no idea it would make my TiVo look so old school! Waiting for it to reset and re-connect to the TiVo network now. Will report back if this didn't work but if not then problem solved

"I had my personal preferences set to opt-out on the tivo.com website for targeted advertising/etc... apparently that disables our use of HD menus and apps (lame). Fixed that back to default and was able to turn the HD menus back on."
