Finding Programs to Record
The TiVo
®
service makes it easy to find programs you know you like, and to find new programs
you might not even know about. You can search for programs by title, by channel, or by time; or
you can search for keywords, actors, or directors.
Recording the Program You’re Watching
You can always record the program you’re watching—just press the RECORD
button. On
the screen that appears, select Record This Showing, or select Season Pass
™
& Other Options
for more choices.
Recording the Saved Portion
A portion of the current channel’s broadcast is always being saved, even when you’re not
recording. When you change channels on the tuner you’re watching, the media device clears the
saved portion and starts saving again on the new channel. So, if the saved portion is important to
you, either record the program or don’t change the channel.
To record the saved portion in addition to the rest of the program, choose Record This Showing.
When you swap between tuners using the LIVE TV
button, the saved portion of the
program on the both tuners is retained.
Stopping a recording
You can stop any recording in either of two ways: select the title in Now Playing, then select
Stop Recording; or, press the RECORD button in live TV, then choose Stop the Current
Recording.
Some programs may not be
recorded or may have other
recording restrictions due to copy
protection rights over the content.
