    Tivo Problem

    I really hope there is an easy solution to this stupid problem. I'm not a "DVR" newbie, as I was formerly a Dish customer. However, having switched to Directv, I am a "Tivo" newbie. I just installed a Philips DSR704 and one thing is driving me crazy. It records programs on its own, seemingly...
