TiVo Suggestions. Use this screen to turn automatic recording of TiVo Suggestions on or
off. When automatic recording is on (the default), TiVo Suggestions may be recorded onto
available space. Programs you have recorded or scheduled to record will never be deleted
to make room for suggestions. Also, if space is needed to save programs you have
scheduled to record, suggestions are the first things to be deleted. (For more information
on TiVo Suggestions, see page 38.)
Video Settings
Connection to Recorder. If you change the cable you use to connect video from your
cable or satellite box to the Recorder, use this screen to inform the Recorder of the change.
The next screen you see depends on whether you have one or two video sources.
Progressive Output. This setting allows you to choose the type of video signal output by
the Recorder. Interlaced scan video is the standard method of displaying a picture on your
TV. All TVs are compatible with Interlaced scan, and this is the default setting.
Progressive scan video is a method of displaying a more stable, flicker-free picture on
your TV. If your TV is compatible with progressive scan and it is connected to your
Recorder with a Component Video cable (not supplied; see page 4), choose Progressive.
3D Noise Reduction. (Appears if you set your video output to Progressive.) If your TV is
compatible with Progressive, you can enable, disable, or change digital video noise
reduction settings. To reduce the amount of noise in the video, choose “On.”
RF Video. If you use a Coaxial RF cable as the video input to your Recorder, this option is
available. You can use the RF Video screen to smooth the video, which will decrease the
static and improve the picture on these channels. However, it will cause images on all
channels carried to your Recorder on a Coaxial RF cable to lose some sharpness.
If you change video sources, for
example, by changing from cable to
satellite service, you should repeat
Guided Setup (go to Messages & Setup,
then Restart or Reset System, then
Repeat Guided Setup).
