choose ‘Audio.’

ALTERNATE AUDIO

Some shows are broadcast with an audio description track and more than one language track. 

The 

Default Audio Language

 setting lets you choose which audio language track is recorded.

The 

Default Audio Program

 setting lets you choose the default language for upcoming shows that have 

multiple language tracks, or turn on audio description for shows that have audio description available.

Note: You can also switch to the audio description track while watching a show by pressing INFO - the second 
button down on the right of the TiVo button - and then selecting the “Audio Description” option from the Info 
Banner.

DOLBY AUDIO 

If you have an A/V receiver or home theater system that supports Dolby audio, use this setting to choose how 
the TiVo box will record and output digital audio. Check your A/V receiver or home theater system manual for its 
capabilities. 

If a show is broadcast with a Dolby audio track, a Dolby Audio icon will appear in the info banner. 

Note: 

Dolby Audio is not available if the screen reader is enabled.

SOUND EFFECTS VOLUME

Change the volume of the TiVo box’s sound effects (the tones played when you press buttons on the remote 
control). The default is Medium.

SCREEN READER

Your TiVo box can read the text that appears on screen. Turn the screen reader on or off by pressing the A 
button - the leftmost button in the line of buttons between the PAUSE circle and the number pad on your 
remote - for two seconds. You’ll hear a voice say, “Screen reader on” or “Screen reader off.”

When the screen reader is on, the TiVo menu text will be audible. In addition:

• When the CHANNEL UP/DOWN button on the remote control pressed, the channel and program 

information will be audible.

• When the INFO button on the remote control is pressed, program information will be audible.

To adjust the volume of the screen reader, use the VOLUME button - the long oval shaped button on the left 
between the arrow circle and the Pause circle on your remote. Or, if the are having trouble hearing the screen 
reader over the video that’s playing, pause the video by pressing PAUSE - the round button in the center of your 
remote.
