Tivo Elite Problem

Just installed a new Tivo Elite and am having two problems. Shows are not archiving and when I look at the ReadyNAS for archived files I only see three directories, not the 12 that are there.

Here is the error in the log.

[2011/10/27 02:00:53] tivo_utils.c:249: info: CSI: Miami (Killer Regrets) is no longer KUID (expires 2038-01-19T03:14:00Z). Skipping.
[2011/10/27 02:00:53] tivo_utils.c:249: info: THX Optimizer Video ((null)) is no longer KUID (expires 2038-01-19T03:14:00Z). Skipping.

I have rebooted both devices...the display files problem happens on my other two Series 3 Tivos. All the files are on the ReadyNAS and playable via my laptop.

Help Please,

John

  • I've also just installed an Elite. I have the "Archive Tivo" option enabled but nothing as happened at all, nothing has appeared on the NAS.

    readytivo.log contains:

    There is lots of recordings on the tivo, as I missing something?
  • I have had archiving working on my Series 3s for the a while now without any problems. I'm at a loss why it will not work on the Elite. Hopefully we will get a solution soon....

    My other issue is that I cannot see all the existing archived shows on the NAS. This isn't just an Elite issue, but it happened once the Elite was connected to the network and did the first Archive attempt.
  • Update

    My other Tivos are archiving fine (I move a few Season Passes back to them as a test). Lots of new stuff on the Elite and it will not Archive.

  • Still no archiving from the Elite and no response from support......Is anybody home.
  • it's a shame netgear makes great products with the absolute worst support. sending my ultra 4 plus back because it flat-out doesn't work with tivo elite.
  • Link this thread to two other theads describing two similar problems with ReadyNAS support for Tivo:

    BUG#1: ReadyNAS will sometimes disappers from Tivos "My Shows". This bug is intermittent, but seems to occur on all Tivos (HD, Premere, and Elite).
    http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=53573

    BUG#2: Failure to Archive KUID shows on Tivo Premere and Tivo Elite. Archive appears to work on Tivo HD.
    http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=59659

    I have an open case# with Tech Support team. Can anyone confirm they are still seeing either of these issues, or confirm a reliable workaround?
