Tivo

I'm not intentionally spamming. It's just, my last post needed to be all about Serenity, and tacking this on the end seemed wrong. My Tivo is finally up and running, though we have sacrificed our cable box, and thus HBO, to adding it to our complicated receiver, Bose surround sound setup. Mostly because our last cable bill was outrageously expensive, and paying $15 a month for one show (Rome) seems excessive. We can buy it when it comes out on DVD with the money we save. It was also much easier to hook it up to our entertainment system without the cable box in the mix.

I'm recording General Hospital today, just because I can. Then I'm going to experiment with burning it to DVD, just to see how it works.

Couple of questions: how do you skip commercials? I press the >| button, and it skips forward once, but then if I press it again, it skips back to the beginning again. Is there a way to program it to record shows without the commercials? I thought you could, but I don't see the option anywhere.
