In one of your recent podcasts you made a comment about the TiVo Series 3 remote being very directional. Here’s a tip: instead of pointing the remote at the TiVo, hold it so that it points UP toward the ceiling (as if you were reading the remote. The remote actually works better this way. I find I don’t need to point it toward the TiVo or TV as long as it’s point up. I’m assuming it has to do with the way the IR window on the remote is shaped.
