Longer Description In Conflict Screen

Posted by: EB Stone

Hey All,

I hope everyone is doing well. Its my first post here. I've been a member since last week, but been busy watching TIVO http://www.avsforum.com/ubbtivo/smile.gif

Here is a suggestion: Longer description in the conflicts screen.
An example -- I'm a "VH1Behind the Music" addict (beyond TIVO, but that addiction, feeds my Tivo addiction ... I'm really confused -- LOL). Anywho ... I have a season pass to BTM. It comes up with some 70 episodes at a time to record. Some of them I have seen, some I haven't -- I just want to be sure I don't miss any of my addiction -- LOL .. But when I'm setting up and picking programs to record, and get a conflict, many times its because it says that "Behind the music is overlapping blah blah blah" ... And give the day and the time. Now, Being that BTM is a series, which I'm sure alot of you have set in season passes, it would be better if I could see the first 10 or 20 words of the description in the conflict screen, thereby choosing whether to keep the BTM show, or put the new one I'm setting up in place of it on the to do list. As it is now, I have to go out of the conflict screen, go check the episode of BTM in my to do list and then back to the program ... Just would be cool. Not to many words, just enough for the title of the episode.

I want to also thank everyone for all their tips and trick and interesting stories about TIVO. I got my machine about 2 weeks ago, and I'm loving every minute of it!

Have a great day

i think it sounds like a good idea, but logistically a nightmare. some of my conflict screens are 2-3 pages. I think it would be better to have less screens to go thru in the recording history screen, so you can see the title of the episode with the title of the show, so you can in one screen, see what has seasonpass conflicts and decide to ignor or fix. I also would like the view upcoming episodes in the tivoloution and channel showcases.
