Hi there
I have a couple of things to ask. First of all I am getting a different theme on TiVo web, it is orange and black and it is a Halloween theme. How did it get changed and has anyone else had the same thing happen to them? Also I want to change my altepg TiVo to mode 4 from mode0. Is the TiVo central altepg the same as tivolands, can I use the same kickstart codes? One other thing I would like to know and is there anyway to take away the black gap I have at the bottom of the picture. Its about an inch high and the top of the picture is chopped off. I have tried all the picture settings on the TV and on the freesat box. What would make this happen? It only happens with the TiVo.
Thanks for any help

It's an "Easter Egg" in tivoweb (or rather, a pumpkin). It happens each year on Hallowe'en day if the right bit of TiVoweb notices the date.

There isn't a Tivo Central AltEPG per-say, Mike is supplying disks with settings to allow users to use AltEPG, I would imagine he provides a set of instructions as to what options are available with the disks.
