Nah, I have a standalone unit. I finally found the option and am honestly embarassed that I missed it. It seems obvios to me now. As to the guide thing. With 4.* There is an option to use the plain old grid style interface. I just don't understand why it can't keep even that little bit of data cached. Perhaps I could get used to the Tivo guide, but I doubt I ever will as the wife flat refuses to give it a shot. Besides, hopefully soon we'll be watching less and less live TV. Now to just get a USB ethernet adapter and upgrade the drive in it.
