Does anyone know if there is a way to make suggestions for upgrades to software for the HDVR2? I have several ideas that I think would be very easy to implement that would make the interface a little nicer to work with.

For example

1. the info button - hit it once and let it work just as it does. hit it again and have the background change to opaque to make it easier to read. hit is a third time (or timeout) and have the info screen removed.

2. menus - allow me to "wrap around" in the menus. For example, when I enter the recording screen I am usually interested in the "to do list", last item on the list. I would like to be able to scroll up and wrap around to the bottom of the list and when I am done, scroll down and wrap around back to the top of the list.

3. guide - this is not so easy. It would be nice to have a option to show the video in a small window while looking at the guide (just like the GAEBO receiver does).

Anyway, I would like to make these suggstions for consideration into a future software release but I don't know who to send the suggestions to.

thanks,

-J

There's lots of friendly folks there, and TiVo employees actually read and respond to members' posts.

except for the fact that the HDVR2 is not a 'TiVo'. It's a DirecTV DVR, TiVo employees will not talk to you about it an DTV is silent. There are some very unhappy people there that feel they have been orphaned.

That would explain why out of 50 or so people that read my message, not one responded.
