You have a TiVo HD and not an S3, right? When you did the 320GB upgrade you didn't use an image from an S3 or HD XL, did you? I ask because the hours you report are pretty much what one of the THX certified units would show - the S3 or HD XL. These units encode at a higher bit-rate than the base TiVo HD, and thus have lower analog recording capacities. (Except Basic, that's pretty much the same.) -MZ -- megazone-at-megazone.org http://www.MegaZone.org/ Gweep, Geek, Human, me. http://www.GizmoLovers.com/ http://www.Eyrie-Productions.com/ -><- Hail Eris "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men" 508-852-2171
