When it works, it works very well...

| When we first got TiVo on the Humax unit I was so excited to be able to ditch my VCR and all that worry about programs rescheduling etc. But my excitement quickly cooled when time and time again, the record to DVD function didn't work. "Internal error" to me meant something was wrong with the unit so I sent it back to Humax (with a $400 hold on my credit card waiting for the replacement). This was three days into my TiVo membership. Same problem occurred with second unit. Returned that one. Finally, frustrated with the fact that I'd enjoy about 10 minutes of my TiVo in the first three weeks of having it, I caromed back and forth between TiVo and Humax customer service (which holds very limited hours btw) and hit my limit when a Humax customer rep told me my DVDs weren't "fresh" enough(!?). Now I realize that that Humax likes some DVD-R brands (Sony, TDK, Verbatim and Imation) and spits out others, I can go on and enjoy my service. But Humax needs to be upfront with people about this limitation on an otherwise fine machine. |
