DST: TiVo versus ReplayTV

As I wrote earlier in the week, TiVo has mostly resolved issues surrounding the daylight savings time date change for Series2 and Series3 units.

However Series1 units have not received a software update. While Season Passes, Wishlists, etc should record as scheduled… TiVo will “display a time one hour behind the actual time” and manual recordings need to be scheduled an hour early for the next three weeks.

By way of comparison, ReplayTV is providing an update for 2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx, and Showstopper units. The DST fix must be manually initiated, but I’m pretty surprised to see any movement here as Replay doesn’t even make hardware DVRs anymore.
