Roamio OTA – 2 TB and 6 TB Models in Stock

For those looking for a great, inexpensive way to help them cut the cord with cable, TiVo has introduced the Roamio OTA.

This model ONLY works with an over-the-air antenna, but, as those of you who have used antenna know, this is the best quality HD picture available. There is so much bandwidth available to OTA broadcasters that they use the least compression (less than cable or satellite in most cases) so that produces the best quality picture.

We now sell the Roamio OTA in two configurations: 2 TB for up to 300 HD hours of recording space, and 6 TB for up to 960 hours! In both cases, all storage is internal.

See the Roamio OTA options on our TiVo Roamio page.

Series1 “Failed While Loading Series” Problem: Fixed!

Back in February, a problem surfaced where many Series1 TiVos began having problems acquiring guide data. These units would hang at 12% with a message saying “failed while loading series.” As you can see from the comments in that post, people were not happy.

As the months went by without a fix, we started to investigate more carefully, and we found a way around the problem: a replacement hard drive.

We found that the problem wasn’t affecting all units, so once we found units that didn’t have the problem, we cloned the software to the units that did have the problem, and we found that it went away. The units started completing setup and acquiring guide data.

If you’d like to order a replacement drive that doesn’t have this problem, see our TiVo Upgrade page.

If you’d like us to reformat your drive with this software, see this page.

TiVo Roamio Remote In Stock (RF and IR)

At WeaKnees, we try to have just about every TiVo remote in stock. We’ve got all of the regular remotes and lots of oddball ones also (for TiVo DVD burners, the old Toshiba TiVo, etc.).

We now have stock of the TiVo Roamio remote. This is the remote that ships with the Roamio and it does IR and RF with the Roamio line. It’ll also work in IR with older TiVos. It’s on the right side of our TiVo Remote page.
