Recording Favourites

[NickElliott]

As a current TiVo owner one of the nice features is it's ability to learn about your viewing preferences based on the programmes you record. You can also teach it using the thumbs up/thumbs down buttons on the remote when watching a programme or recording.

Using this information TiVo will look at the EPG and build a list of suggestions of programmes that might be of interest to you, it may also record some of these programmes if it has no scheduled programmes to record.

I don't believe this is an option in GB-PVR. Do you know if there are future plans to introduce such a feature?

Thanks

It is something I'd like to do in the future, but compared to a lot of other things, its not a high priority so you probably wont seen it in the next few months (sorry).

Do a search on BayesScheduler it may give you what you are looking for.

I'd like to vote for this feature to be added also. Suggestions are the only thing that kept me with Tivo for so long. Now that Tivo is out the door I would love to see this in GB-PVR.

I'm unlikely to ever add this to GB-PVR, but there is nothing to stop someone creating a plugin for it. Its just not something that has ever interested me.

This is the exact reason I *didn't* get a Tivo. I didn't want some service spying on my viewing habits and recording things I didn't request. And in some cases, as I have heard, overwriting things I want to keep. Tivo would have been much easier to implement than a PVR, but I was willing to go to extra inconvenience to avoid the spy factor. Well, that and I wanted to convert home videos to DVD.
