While the dual tuner TiVo solves a lot of viewing problems, it doesn’t help the ratings since I think they don’t rate DVR viewings, skipping commercials, the same way they rate live viewings.
How is “viewing” detected? I have no clue as to how ratings are generated.
If ratings are generated by what channel the cable box is set to.....or what channel my TV demands from the cable network.......then shouldn’t it rate what my TiVo is taping since the TiVo actually changes the channel on the box?
Don’t know how it works with any other DVR.......but the ability to not watch commercials is well worth the extra charge.
