Tour Five: Finding New Programs
3
Auto-Recording TiVo Suggestions. As an added bonus, when the Recorder has available
space, it automatically records TiVo Suggestions. (You can turn this feature off if you
prefer; see page 94.) You will find recorded TiVo Suggestions on Now Playing, listed
below programs you requested. Or, if you have the Groups option turned on (see page 71),
TiVo Suggestions recordings will appear in their own group.
It’s important to remember these characteristics of TiVo Suggestions recordings:
• TiVo Suggestions never replace shows you request, or prevent your requested shows
from being recorded.
• TiVo Suggestions are always the first programs deleted to make room for recordings
you request.
Auto-recording TiVo Suggestions is an easy way to find programs you never knew about,
or old favorites you may have forgotten.
Showcases
Showcases is an interactive content area which often includes opportunities to schedule
recordings of featured programs, or allows you to watch previews of upcoming movies or
TV shows. The programs in Showcases are grouped in theme packages, giving you “one-
stop shopping” convenience when browsing for programs to record. Packages may
include exclusive content, the inside scoop on hit movies, exciting miniseries, special
events, popular series, and shows featuring the biggest stars of the screen and stage.
TiVolution
®
Magazine is one part of Showcases where you’ll always find something fun
and different. It’s a guide to the best upcoming shows on television. Select a title to see the
Program Information screen. If you get the channel that airs the program, you can set up a
recording here—it’s that easy! Showcases and TiVolution Magazine are updated during
your Recorder’s regular connection to the TiVo service.
If other members of your household
are pressing THUMBS UP on shows
you don’t care for, and vice versa, you may
find that TiVo Suggestions is making
some suggestions that you like, and some
that are more appropriate for other
members of your household.
