Virgin Media Tivo Box

[jims-terrano]

Has anyone got a VM Tivo box? could do with a couple of questions answering.

1. Has it got Scart sockets on the back? (cos I aint got HDMI on my TV)

2. VM has told me that they'll need to run new cables when they upgrade my Cable Modem for a Super Hub and replace my VM Digi Box for a Tivo. Does anyone know if they use existing cables or do they have to run new cables from the roadside?

Virgin Media Tivo

I went back to Virgin Media after a 2 year absence they connected my new box using the old cables - mine are just coaxial ones to a connector in the house.

The new hub was connected with a similar coaxial using a T piece at the back of the Tivo Box. Phone via dedicated phone point (old wiring from 2 years ago.).

Cheers sounds like they'll use existing coax then. I'm a bit fussy about my cables so mine are all hidden under floor boards or buried in the garden, even enters the floor void underground so no silly brown junction box on outside wall.
