Thanks for the response...

I will flash a message asking if it is OK to change the channel. If you don't click "Don't change channel" with the remote, it "knows" that no one is actually watching.


That doesn't seem to make sense to me though.

It makes perfect sense for the tivo to act that way when it needs to change channels to record at my request. My question is how does it know when it can record its "suggested" material?

If what you are saying is true, than it would have to interrupt whatever I am watching occasionally to see if it could record something it thinks I may like.

It seems to me that it must have some kind of trigger, wether it be loss of video signal (cable box off) or timer, etc to let it know that no one is watching and it can act on its own behalf.

Or am I losing it???

thanks -rob
