Introduction

MigliaTV  supports the online TV guide service “tvtv”, available in several European countries. The tvtv service
provides an overview of daily and weekly TV programmes and helps you to easily schedule recordings.

A free 30 day trial account is available for MigliaTV owners.

I.

Initial tvtv setup

If you are living in a country covered by tvtv, the Setup Assistant will automatically give you the option to 
register with tvtv. Follow the onscreen instructions to either create a tvtv account (you will be redirected to 
the tvtv website) or enter your existing login name and password.

II.

The tvtv plug-in

tvtv integration in MigliaTV  is achieved via a plug-in. The Setup Assistant will automatically adjust 
all the required settings for tvtv. However, you can also configure the tvtv plug-in manually.

Selected Input:

Lets you select the video input. Normally, this will be the TV tuner, but you can also use 
Composite or S-Video if your TV hardware is connected to a digital TV receiver (Cable, 
Satellite, Digital Terrestrial, etc...). However, the digital receiver will have to be set to the 
correct channel for the recording, as your TV hardware cannot control an external device.

Login:

Change Pass:
