Strange TiVo 1x Fast Forward Bug
I am watching a football game and was using 1x fast forward between plays. All of a sudden it stopped working. It would turn off the sound, but the video would still move at normal speed. I found this thread about the 1x fast forward bug in the TiVo community forum and it looks like [...]
