The FIOS update is sucky and I called in on it. Among other little nags like erasing all the season pass programing you had set up it dropped a simple search method. Now it makes you scroll horizontally forward through the full menu 1/2 hour by 1/2 hour rather than a vertical strip list show by show. it also lost the slow motion function and you can only do a frame by frame by pushing the button for each frame. Thank god for TEVO. with TEVO you tell it to record all of something like road racing and it grabs it ALL. SWC, Rolex, F1, NASCAR, ARCA, outlaw, dirt trackers. Legends and more. The FiOS system seems to get confused that each F1 is part of the season pas and if not on Speed will not record. I have taken to spending 10 min or so a week looking for the stuff i want. Nice picture, good phone, great internet, suck ass DVR.
