I have had a Tivo series 2 DVR for 7 years with no problems. My less-than-3-year old Tivo HD DVR quit working last night. I called Tivo tech support, and after the incredibly helpful instructions of "unplug it, plug it back in" (which I had already done) was told I was out of luck. My options were to (in this order) 1) Upgrade to Tivo Premier = buy new box, buy new service plan, lose all my saved shows, or 2) Pay $150 to send my box in for an exchange, keep my service plan, and lose my shows. This was logged under case **. I'm a mechanical engineer, not electrical, but it seems to me like the only problem is the power supply, and the hard drive is fine.
Since we watch all our TV through the Cable Cards in the Tivo, we cannot watch TV without Tivo, or at least we cannot watch anything but our few local stations. I decided to go the upgrade route, but didn't want to wait on shipping delays. I had recently received an email upgrade offer: buy a new Tivo Premier box and get 50% off lifetime service, $199 instead of $399.
I called Tivo customer support to ask if I could purchase a box from our Local Best Buy and still get the lifetime service discount. I talked to **, who told me I could; all I needed to do was ask for it when I called to activate the new box. I did not get a Case # for my conversation with **, because I didn't think I would need one.
So I purchased the Tivo Premier XL box from Best Buy, came home to set it up, and called Tivo to activate my lifetime service. I was told I couldn't have the discount (at 199) because it was only available for equipment purchased directly from Tivo, I would have to pay 299. What ** had told me was wrong. I spoke at length with supervisor **, who informed me there was absolutely no way "the system" would let them give me this discount.
In addition there was no way they could give me any kind of 100 credit to reduce my out of pocket costs. Very disappointing to be told one thing and then find out it was incorrect. My conversation with ** was logged under Case # **. ** did offer to knock 100 off the exchange price, so I could exchange my box for $50. Strange that he could do that, but not reduce the lifetime service by 100.
So now I'm going to pursue options with WeaKnees to spend 100 and get a new power supply. Hopefully that will work, and if so I won't lose all my saved shows. =If it doesn't I am so disgruntled with Tivo right now that I'll go back to Comcast. Tivo just lost around 700 from me that they'll never get now. Or at least, not until my current box breaks again and I'm faced with the same situation.
CALIFORNIA -- TIVO is probably the absolute worst company or business in a service related industry that I have ever dealt with. And considering what I do for a living that is saying something! I am an American Service Member serving in the United States Army. I work with fortune 500 companies all the time. In this case, please understand that I was a faithful follower for about six years. The very first year my DVR failed but Tivo was very quick to fix the problem and send me a replacement DVR at a minimal expense. Five years pass by and the DVR I came to depend on failed as well. That is when my problems started and why I wanted to post this complaint!
Here are some of the things they don't tell you: 1) DVR's no matter what the expense will not last more than 2-4 years in length. 2) While the cost for the analog machine (which is what I owned) has come down (the HD is at the same cost that I paid for the old machine, nearly $300) if you want a lifetime membership, that is an additional $199. 3) If the DVR you buy goes out and is considered unfixable (meaning over the phone) you incur another lifetime membership charge of $199. 4) If you experience an issue past your initial 30 days purchase, no matter how much you document a so called case file, Tivo will NOT refund your money.
In my case, in May '09 when my older DVR failed, I called Tivo after my wife and I discussed paying the expenses I mentioned above. These are tough times. We worry over every expense. Regardless, we were convinced that Tivo was a good company. Little did we know what was about to happen. They told me to dispose of the old DVR. After paying around $80 - $90 for a newer rebuilt DVR (it seems that this is all that America can produce these days) it finally arrived. I diligently hooked it up. It started up. We had it for less than a week and started noticing that the DVR was 'freezing'. There were other problems.
But we immediately called Tivo and my first hint that something was wrong was when they tried to tell me that my Tivo wireless network device was bad. If you don't know, those cost anywhere from $50-75. I knew that the device was fine - the system reported it so. But it didn't stop the clown technician from trying to gouge me for additional accessories. So continuing with their troubleshooting techniques - it was discovered that the DVR was bad.
TIVO charged me again another round of fees for the replacement which they said they would refund when they received the damage DVR back.
I sent the damaged DVR back using their shipping instructions. And sure enough, they did refund the money. The replacement DVR seemed OK. It worked initially. But then I started noticing that it didn't perform like the other that I had for years. I called and started another case number on the new DVR. My complaint was that it wasn't deleting items like it should. Nor was the season pass manager working at all. Instead the TIVO suggestion was working on overtime. It recorded everything the TV wanted but nothing of what I wanted. Again, I worked with TIVO. We talked and worked on the problems I outlined to them for nearly a month.
The tips that their customer service department gave me basically never fixed anything. I tried to be patient and understanding, each time I told the technician that I was trying to be a good customer and go the extra mile and allow them to fix the problem. Well, that was until tonight. Last week, the TV special technician - my problem got bumped to a 'higher level technician'. Last week he interviewed me and reviewed the case file. He mentioned that he was going to send a special request to a different, more responsive customer service tech that supposedly would know how to fix the problems.
He told me he would call me back in a day or so to see if the fixes would work, even boasted that he knew this would be the 'ultimate fix'. Well, after having the DVR little over a month now and being unappreciated by the tech forgetting about my problem, I called up Tivo and told them that I was through. Shoddy support and poor performance were the reasons I wanted to discontinue our relationship. I asked for my $DVR costs and lifetime membership fee to be refunded.
The TV accounts representative that I was sent to basically told me there was nothing to refund. When I complained and told him to review the case file to see how long I had been working with Tivo he finally admitted that there was a lot of material in the file. I told him "damn right there is" and he went to talk to TIVO's accounting department. When he came back on the line, he said there was nothing he could do, he had exhausted every resource available. I asked to speak to a manager he told me that it would do no good. Then I demanded to speak to a manager. He again told me He was the final authority on the matter.
He said the only course of action available was to continue working with his tech department. So my warning to you is that no matter if you are an existing customer or a new one, understand you are dealing with a company with no scruples when it comes to poor service, shoddy products and not bashful in committing plain old highway robbery. This refund was delayed by TIVO's inability to handle a problem and failing to follow through to ensure customer satisfaction. In my case, they took longer than their refund policy to address the problem with my machine and then refused to do the right thing.
As the customer, you must understand that you have lost before you even start with a company like this. My simple advice: don't do business with them. Use your cable companies DVR or find a cheap VCR that is easy to program! Save your hard earned money and yourself from unneeded frustration and hardship. For those that say America can produce quality products, PROVE IT! For the welfare of my family, I am now disillusioned by shoddy claims and promises by corporate bullies!
I'd had a TIVO for 6 years when it quit. I called and ordered a new one and cancelled the old one. Like some of you I didn't check my credit card statement for several months and then last month I saw that I was being billed for both TIVOs. I really didn't think it was any big deal... just an oversight on their part, so I called customer service expecting to have the charges removed.
I was told that the representative I talked to when I bought the new TIVO did not make a note to cancel the service on the old one so I would not get credit. I told the guy that was unfair and he put me on hold, then came back and said he would give me 2 months credit but that was the best he could do. I have contacted customer service via e-mail and this was their reply:
Hello, Thank you for contacting TiVo Customer Support. I can help you with your service questions. Per section 11 of the TiVo Service Agreement, which you agreed to when you signed up for service, "You are responsible for reviewing your credit card statement for billing accuracy. You have 90 days to dispute any billing that you feel is inaccurate. If you do not contact TiVo within 90 days of the disputed billing date, TiVo will not be responsible for any billing errors."
However, we were not notified within 90 days as our policy requires so technically no credit was appropriate for this billing error. However, it seems our agent was nice enough to offer 2-month credit for customer satisfaction. This concession was more than was appropriate for the situation. I apologize but offering more is out of the question. The amount we have offered is already more than policy allows. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you. Thank you for choosing TiVo and have a great day!
According to them not only am I the one in the wrong but their customer service representative is a great guy for offering me 2 months credit. Let's face it, this is a scam they have going to screw their customers out of their money. They are apparently too stupid to realize they are in a highly competitive market (And not doing too well I hear) and these tactics will help drive them out. It can't be too soon for me. I am dumping them and going with my cable company DVR for less money per month.
I owned an original Philips TiVO back when they first came out, and really loved it. When the HD units came out, I waited to get one forever, and finally when they had a special on refurbished units I couldn't wait any longer and took the plunge. That was a mistake. TiVo, the company and product I'd loved way back when, now apparently exists primarily to milk subscribers for subscription fees.
The box they gave me crashed constantly. Press the TiVO button, and the machine would die and reboot. When I tried to get support, I went through a whole online chat with the support people only to be told at the end of it that golly, we really can't help you out via online chat, you have to call us (and I'd go through the whole support dance again, after waiting on hold for a half hour). Disgusted, I gave up on the TiVO and switched to a Windows Media Center PC (which has been really great).
When I finally got around to trying to cancel the monthly subscription with TiVo, I got a serious lesson in what kind of company this has become. There was little concern about the customer's level of satisfaction (and they didn't sound too surprised that the refurbished machine they sold me was a lemon, either). Apparently this company now exists primarily to milk people for cash flow via monthly subscription fees (which, btw, if you use a DVR like Windows Media Center or Beyond TV or MythTV, you get for free) and their retention script reads "we're going to charge you whatever we can, too bad".
Now that I'm looking at their recent stock performance, including wider-than-expected losses and hopes that a lawsuits against Echostar and DISH might provide a cash infusion, I have to say I'm not that surprised at the way they treat their customers (especially when the company's business plan seems to be largely based on litigation). I wish I'd done better research before I jumped back into the TiVO fold. Don't make the mistake I did.
We purchased a Series 2 TV a few years ago with a lifetime service contract. Then last year, we upgraded, for some hundreds of dollars to a new TV HD box with yet another lifetime service agreement. When we did this, they said that the old Series 2 would continue to work for a year. Since we have only one TV in the house, the Series 2 went unused.
Now, going over my credit card statements, I noticed that they've been billing me $12.95 per month, starting a few months ago. It turns out that there was a provision in the upgrade agreement (or at least they're telling me this) that said they would start monthly billing after the year had elapsed. I canceled the service, and am out something like $26 or $39 dollars for not noticing this.
My problems with this are: 1. The one-year continuation of service on the old TV box was positioned to me at the time as a way to ensure that I could watch/transfer/delete the programs already recorded, since the new TV HD box would arrive with no content (obviously). Made sense. Charging $12.95 per month is inconsistent with that principle;
I hope TV is really whooping it up with the $26 (or whatever) that they squeezed out, because this is the absolute last dime they will ever get from us.
TiVo is supposed to be a personal DVR to work with antenna as well as cable TV. We purchased it to work with antenna and have had trouble with it since we plugged it in initially. I called TiVo customer service immediately and was told it would download and get everything but it took a little while. The next day we still had channel guide with no listings saying "to be announced". I have called at least 7-8 times to get this fixed and every time they say "give me a week or 5-7 business days and it should be fixed." For 3 full months we have had channel listings in the guide with no shows listed.. Not one or two but 8 channels.
So when you want to set up something to record, it will not find the shows you are wanting from CBS or ABC because the machine has no idea what is coming on those channels. It is so ridiculous that in the computer age a company can not get a channel listing for three months strait..
To top it all off we got so frustrated we were just ready to cancel and they said we would owe for the remainder of the year. Even though the service has not worked and has been incorrect the entire time! This is a rip off!!! Do not ever ever purchase a TiVo to use for your antennae.
TiVo undertakes deliberately deceptive business practices. If you can avoid it, DO NOT SIGN UP FOR TiVo! They continue to bill you for old TiVo units, even when you had to buy a new box because of an incompatibility issue that is their fault. Unless you specifically say the words "Please cancel the old service," they'll just double bill you. When you call customer service, you get a different answer to your questions every time.
Sometimes you can't use a TiVo-issued gift card (for no reason), other times you can. Sometimes they'll tell you that you'll get credit for the double billing, and a supervisor will call to confirm. But the supervisor won't call. And when you call back, they'll deny the refund promised. THESE PEOPLE ARE EVIL AND NEED TO BE STOPPED!
I recently upgraded from TiVo dual tuner to an HD dual tuner. Suddenly I cannot get On Demand movies from Comcast. TiVo tried to say "you can NEVER get that from Comcast if you have TiVo", but I told them it only started once they put their card into my cable box. They just said, "oh." Like, no biggie. It is a big deal. They've robbed me of a big part of my cable TV service.
Also, TiVo consistently cuts off shows before they're over. I mean up to a minute. Not shows that run long, like Idol - regular shows. And they are RUDE when you call to ask about why or to get information. If there was a comparable DVR service out there I'd switch. For now, I'm stuck living with TiVo's limits. But can't they at least get nicer phone reps?
ALVISO, CALIFORNIA -- My TV HD and Comcast do Not work reliably. The TV HD unit with a Comcast Motorola cable card loses signal about once a week requiring a hard reset of the unit to regain signal. I have called TV several times over the last several months and they have told me they are aware of this issue and their engineers are working on it. Well their company should definitely not release a product that doesn't work reliably with the largest cable company in the USA without full disclosure. Their company is not able to provide the service it promises and I am considering look into further action, possibly legal (class action).
I have had TV service since 2002. I am now on my 4th TiVo. I received the TV in November of 2008 but did not use it or set it until April 2009. I had a serious problem that required a replacement of the unit in June 2009. After being informed by their agent that my warranty did not start until April when it made its first call in, I had 90 days from then for free replacement if the problem occurred again. It did, and when I called the next day I was informed that the info he gave me was wrong, and that I would have to pay 50 dollars plus ship the unit back at my own expense and wait 7 to 10 days after that to get a refurbished unit with only a 90 day warranty.
Remember, this is a 600 dollar unit and my fourth one at that. My original warranty would have expired in November even at their revised start date, now it expires in September. I have been very pleased with TV for seven years but I will change as soon as there is an alternative.

Crash (UK - BD RB)
Our Marcus is hoping he'll never have to crash back into this movie ever again...
'It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something.'
I'm not going to beat around the bush here. Since its 2004 release, I've disliked Crash. I never really understood why it became the Best Picture Oscar winner (among many other awards) and I certainly never met another film lover who has much good to say about the flick either. Watching it again now (despite all but promising myself I never would), I've got to say nothing's changed. It's hard to think of a heavier handed piece of popular filmmaking in recent memory and with more god awful dialogue than you can throw a stick at, it's just a movie I find impossible to like.
Sadly, for me, this places a storm cloud over all of the movie's good intentions—moments that, if not placed within this mishmash of clunkiness would be genuinely uncomfortable and have a comment to make about elements of the world we live in. I just feel that Crash bombards us with its message from the outset and just doesn't know when to let up when it needs to, resulting in any sort of impact getting washed away in a flash flood.
Another sour point is that the cast, the majority of whom I've really enjoyed in other movies, do absolutely nothing to draw me in here. Sandra Bullock's venomous side works for about two scenes, I don't know what the usually great Don Cheadle is trying to achieve here, and the less said about Jennifer Esposito, Brendan Fraser and the 'oh, please stop talking' performance from Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges the better. Matt Dillion sort of comes off as memorable, but his role isn't exactly pushing his range and Larenz Tate is always great (what's happened to that guy anyway?), but neither are roles that can save the whole. As I said before, in amongst the clunkiness, there are glimmers of greatness trickling through the cracks, it's just a shame any chance of it shining is ruined by the cast launching into a series of statistics about minorities, just to show where all of this prejudice is coming from. It makes everyone come across as characters as opposed to real people.
As if you hadn't guessed so far, Crash just doesn't work at all for me and with six years distance from it, this return viewing probably fared worse with me than the movie did the first time around.
Released in a 1080/50i transfer (yes, people that's an i, not a p) Crash initially shows obvious signs of the interlacing, but they soon disappear. Artistically, this is a pretty dark movie anyway and the deep blacks work very well in places, despite having moments of looking a little hazy.
The golden orange lighting mixed with the greens and reds glow nicely off of the screen but the impressive nature of the HD upgrade is lost somewhat with the gritty, intentional level of grain on show and the low lighting in many of the scenes.
There is an obvious step up from the standard definition release (what I can remember of it anyway), but it certainly doesn't come with bells and whistles and the slight softness to the transfer really seems to affect the small details.
Generally Crash is made up of a tonal score floating around forced, heavy handed dialogue and for that much the track does okay. There's a nice level of bass, the score builds a presence using all of the speakers and the dialogue sits solidly in the front speakers. Beyond that there's very little to write about, beyond the odd police siren (going to the scene of a race related crime no doubt) and the ambience of people moving around the city (trying to crash into one another). All in all this is a pretty standard sounding mix.
The commentary by Paul Haggis, Bobby Moresco and Don Cheadle is a pretty straight on the nose affair. The participants seem to get on well enough, but they don't really deviate off of the basics of offering a bit of background and discuss how each scene plays out. There are also quite a few silent moments and all in all it's a pretty timid affair.
There are ten minutes worth of deleted scenes all in horrible quality and then everything else is presented in pretty bleak standard definition, beginning with 'Behind the Metal and Glass' (28:14 SD) which is a pretty conventional making of with stories about how Crash is breaking boundaries and took a whole lot to get a studio to sign off making the movie.
Rounding up, there are two featurettes—'L.A.: The Other Main Character' ((14:21 SD) and 'Unspoken' (11:32 SD)—both of which are narrated by Thandie Newton (or a good sound alike) and make Crash sound like the cleverest film in modern cinema.
After seeing it for the first time, a friend of mine summed up his feelings on Crash pretty perfectly when he described it as 'Like being hit over the head with a rubber mallet that has the word 'racism' stamped on it' and really I don't think I can sum up my own feelings on the movie any better than that. For all of its good intentions, and its fable like approach to a genuine problem with the world, this Oscar winner just doesn't shine at all for me.
The disc itself doesn't do much more to butter me up either. The transfer and audio track are both pretty uneventful and the features feel a little tired and out of date and all in all this winds up feeling like a lazy catalogue release to take advantage of awards seasons as opposed to a celebration of an award winner.

Surveillance photos of Hernandez's home
Surveillance photos of Hernandez's home
Color photos were taken from Aaron Hernandez's home surveillance system.
Aaron Hernandez has been charged with murder in the June 17 slaying of acquaintance Odin Lloyd.
Hernandez's North Attleborough home is not far from the murder scene.
Surveillance photos released in Attleboro District Court appear to show former Patriots star Aaron Hernandez holding a pistol.
Two Hernandez associates have also been charged with murder in the June 17 slaying of Lloyd.
Hernandez appears to be holding the pistol by the barrel in this image.
Prosecutors have previously alleged that Hernandez was captured by his home's surveillance cameras carrying a gun after Lloyd's slaying.
Hernandez is also charged in Suffolk County Superior Court with killing two men in Boston in 2012.

Attend any swim meet or other youth athletic event these days and you're likely to see parents doling out to their elementary-aged kiddos all sorts of energy chews, drinks and other "soft" performance boosters. Whatever happened to water, or maybe Emergen-C? As a mom and health editor, this seems to be a potentially dangerous growing trend.
Researchers at the University at Buffalo recently announced study results showing that tweens and teens (ages 12–17) tend to develop a preference for caffeinated drinks. Scientists gave half the students unfamiliar drink flavors with caffeine (unknowingly) added. Among that group, students rated the caffeinated version more highly each of the four days they tasted it. Researchers think the teens enjoyed not just the flavor but the feelings caffeine gave them.
The Committee on Nutrition of the American Academy of Pediatrics also recently published a position paper on sports and energy drinks (like Red Bull and Monster) in the diets of children and adolescents. They determined that the use of sports drinks is generally unnecessary, and that stimulant-containing energy drinks have no place in young people's diets.
No viable studies have been done on the effects of caffeine on kids. Marketers should be limited in their forays in this area.
Tip: Even energy bars should be used with knowledge and caution. Break an adult-sized protein bar in half for a child and have them drink lots of water to help digest it. Kid-aimed bars like ClifKids are generally a better option.

Recently I had a problem with servers booting very slowly after a restart. They seemed to not be doing anything at all, but nothing made it look like they hung. After several hours (seriously) the servers booted into Windows. The logfiles were clean, however I was unable to start / stop services. Users couldn't print and Exchange wasn't working.
Users could, however, use their files and some SQL databases.
It turned out that the APC software had "expired".
The solution is booting in safe mode, and setting the following services to "manual":
- APCPBEAgent
- APCPBEServer
This already fixes all problems.
Then reboot and download APC v.7 to keep your UPS's functioning properly.
Here's the link:

Out of pure curiosity, what is the absolute lowest pressure required to allow the ULT to work properly? As in, minimal risk of short stroking.
Thanks all.
Out of pure curiosity, what is the absolute lowest pressure required to allow the ULT to work properly? As in, minimal risk of short stroking.
Thanks all.
Pull pressure?
Return pressure
It varies so much marker to marker there is no way to tell you that, really.
Its not recommended for classic, but some people have success just dropping it in, some dont.
An x valve or any of its variants regulate to 600 psi or so, the classic is around 400 psi...
So if I were to give you a direct answer... 600 psi, thats what it was designed for
Cool. Thank you. It's just a random question that popped in my head. Lol.
A properly working x-valve/RT valve will be switching bottle pressure to the top of the on/off at the point it needs to reset. That puts you at 800 psi at a minimum normally. The chamber pressures don't actually vary that much except with the bolt type, with the level 10 being about 50 or 75 psi higher (it's in here somewhere). Depending on velocity, bolts, paint and barrels, they run between 400-500 psi on the final dump chamber pressure, but a shutoff RT valve - ULT on/off will be sitting at bottle pressure.
My x-valve + ULT stops cycling at around 800psi
Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
Yeah. The RT slam fills the dump chamber at full bottle pressure, but regulates down after it's filled. That's why you get more reactivity with higher pressures, but the trigger weight won't change.
