Installing TiVo Desktop for Windows-based PCs

To install the TiVo Desktop application for Windows-based PCs:

1. Download the TiVo Desktop application from 

www.tivo.com/desktop

. 

2. Make sure other Windows applications are not running, then double-

click TiVoDesktop.exe to start the installation program.

3. Follow the instructions in the Installation Wizard screens.

4. When the installation is complete, click “Finish.”

The TiVo Desktop application for Windows has two components:

•

TiVo Publisher

 lets you select music and photos to publish. Run the TiVo 

Publisher application when you want to change the selection of music or 
photos available to your TiVo Series2 DVR. To run TiVo Publisher, 
double-click the TiVo logo or select Programs > TiVo Desktop > TiVo 
Publisher from the Start menu.

•

TiVo Server

 sends the music and photos to your TiVo 

Series2 DVR. TiVo Server runs automatically after 
you install it and whenever you start your PC. It 
gives your DVR access to music and photos you have published. You 
can tell TiVo Server is running by looking for a TiVo logo on the right 
side of your Windows Taskbar (the small area at the bottom of your 
computer screen). If you are using Windows XP, you may need to check 
your icon hiding settings in order to see the TiVo icon.

Using TiVo Publisher for Windows

TiVo Publisher stores shortcuts to your music and photos files, and 
information about how you want those files displayed on your DVR.

Publishing Your Music

Publishing your music means making MP3 files available over your home 
network to your TiVo Series2 DVR with Home Media Option. Publishing 
does not copy music files to your DVR, so published music does not use any 
of your DVR’s recording space. 

If your computer creates a separate profile for each user (each user logs in 
with a password), then each user publishes music independently. Each 
user’s songs and playlists are only available to the DVR when that user is 
logged on to the PC. Windows XP allows multiple users to log on at once, 
making more than one person’s songs and playlists available to the DVR at 
the same time.

Playlists and Folders.

 TiVo Publisher works with music in MP3 file format. 

A good way to organize your MP3 music collection is to use playlists, or 
groupings of songs you play together. TiVo Publisher supports most 
popular playlist formats. For a list of compatible formats, see page 37.

For system requirements, see 

page 6.

®

Your published music and photos 

are not available to your DVR if your 

computer is in “sleep” mode.
