NEW to TIVO, Please Help

Hi all,





Well not necessarily new, I am an old "new customer" I was a customer back when Tivo first came out with a single tuner sony DVR. I always loved tivo and found DTV and Dishnetowork dvr's lacking. Recently I decided to get rid of Sat tv and went back to cable. After little reading ended up with the Roamio plus with lifetime subscription. What a great feeling, Tivo at last... For the most part I am finding that the Tivo software is far superior than that of the aforementioned dvr's. However there are a couple things that are missing and frankly I am quite surprised that Tivo may have overlooked these simple yet important features. My hope is that the feature is there and maybe I do not know how to access it and someone can point me to the right direction.



Ok I am not finding a way to differentiate from shows that have already been watched from those that have not been watched at all. I found the partial list and that is ok when a show has been partially watched. But say if I my wife watches her Soap's and leaves the DVR running until the end. When you pull the listing it will simply show it as new and no way of telling whether she watched the show or not. I find it hard to believe that a tivo with the advanced features does not have such a simple but much needed feature. Is there a way to tell what shows have been seen and which have not? I use my tivo with 4 minis. My kids love to record allot of junk, would be nice to be able to delete the junk as soon as they have watched it. I used to clean my other DVr's once a week, but not being able to tell what has been watched and what has not. Makes that impossible to do.



Second item, Sorting by alphabetical order. My list looks all disorganized even though I chose Alphabetical order. Why is this? for some reason Tivo ignores "The" when sorting. So instead of having "The Americans" on the letter T, the show is found on the letter A. Now normally that would not be a problem if they Renamed the show to Americans The. But leaving the show names "The Americans" in the A makes the list look like crap and frankly as little confusing when looking for shows. Is there a way to change the list so that it shows where it is supposed to? "The" "T"?



Is there a way to delete the icons at the bottom of my shows list of the software that I do not use and perhaps add icons to stuff I do use? While on the topic of My Shows, is there a way to limit the Icon "New" to expire say after 3 days. Kind of distracting to seeing most of the shows on the list with the "New" icon.



Ohh last but not least PLEX please :D



Thank you all in advanced for the help.
