My series 2 is a little slow...

Archived from groups: alt.video.ptv.tivo (More info?)

I notice there is a pause between certain commands. The pause lasts one or
two seconds, it's not really a big deal, but I was wondering if there was
any way to upgrade the processor (though I realize this WILL void the
warranty). I haven't seen any proc upgrades for Tivos, so I'll bet it's
proprietary or soldered in or both...

The slowness I am referring to really doesn't seem like a software problem,
I think they just went with cheap hardware in order to maximize profits.

Strange. Mine was always slow from the day I got it in August 2003. I
haven't noticed any more slowness lately.
