A note to ‘Navy NCIS’ viewers

I picked this up on alt.video.ptv.tivo:

If you have a Season Pass for Navy NCIS, you will have to create a new one or select the Season Premiere manually from the program guide. The program name has changed to NCIS for the first episode of the new season scheduled on Tue. 9/28.

I’m keeping the Navy NCIS Season Pass in the event the program name change was in error.

I don’t watch this myself, but I thought I’d pass it on.

Once again ReplayTV follows TiVo on pricing

After the disastrous switch back to bundled pricing last fall, ReplayTV switched back to separate HW and service fees, and adopted the same pricing as TiVo – $299 lifetime or $12.95 monthly.

They’ve done it again – RTV just rolled out a $6.95 monthly price for additional units on the same account, matching TiVo’s pricing.

That’s pretty much all that has changed with RTV in a long time. No new features or HW from them in ages – well, no new HW since the 5000 first hit in 2003.

NBC messing with their schedule on Thursday 9/16

NBC is at it again, running shows at odd times and possibly messing up TiVo recordings on Thursday (tomorrow) – See this thread.

Heads up – if you record Joey, Will and Grace, and/or The Apprentice you’ll need to use manual recordings or you will miss some of the shows.

I encourage you to spread the word on this. And remember, if you’re reading this away from home and won’t make it back in time to fix it – if you have a Series2 unit you can try fixing it via online scheduling.
