helps you learn about the smart-recording features of the
TiVo service and home networking capabilities of your TiVo Media
Device.
Getting Started:
Activate the TiVo service.
The TiVo service is what makes your
media device smart. It includes everything from your program
listings to Season Pass™ recordings and WishList™ searches.
To activate your TiVo service, which is available free of charge
and subject to terms and conditions, visit
www.mytivo.com.au/
activate (Australia) or www.mytivo.co.nz/activate (New
Zealand).
TiVo service is required. No functionality is represented or
should be expected without activating your free subscription to
the TiVo service.
2. Connect your TiVo Media Device.

the TiVo service. You may also find helpful videos already
recorded for you in the Now Playing List.
Basic Terms
When we talk about the TiVo service, here are some terms you
should know:
Live TV.
If you’re watching a program as it’s being broadcast,
you’re watching live TV. With the TiVo service, you can pause
live TV for up to 30 minutes. When you resume watching,
you’re “behind” live TV.
Dual tuner.
A tuner is a device found inside media devices, TVs,
VCRs—anything designed to receive TV signals. A tuner picks
one channel to display from all the channels you receive; it
“tunes” to that channel. The TiVo Media Device is a “dual
tuner” device, meaning that it has two tuners inside.
Service updates.
From time to time, updates to the TiVo service
will be delivered to your media device via its broadband
connection. Details regarding new features are always available
at
www.mytivo.com.au (Australia) or www.mytivo.co.nz (New
Zealand).
