Using the Guide to Find Programs
The TiVo service provides a program guide that displays up to two weeks of TV
programming at the touch of a button. You can use the guide to quickly find programs and
set up recordings by customizing the channels and filtering the types of programs shown
in the guide. To view the guide, just press the GUIDE button on your TiVo remote.
Customizing the Guide
The guide has options that let you quickly change what programs and channels it shows.
To see Guide Options, press ENTER while the guide is displayed. Available options are:
Channels. Choose which channel list you want the guide to display. For details on how to
customize these channel lists, see page 86. The three channel lists are:
• You Receive. This is the default list. It displays only the channels you have chosen
in the Channels You Receive channel list.
• Favorites. This list shows only your favorite channels when browsing the guide.
• All. This list displays all of your cable or satellite provider’s channels, even
channels you don’t subscribe to.
Day and Time. Sets the guide to show what’s on at a particular day and time.
Style. Choose between the TiVo Live Guide and Grid Guide styles. (For details about the
differences between these two styles, see page 69.)
Filtering. Turns filtering on or off. (Choosing a filter is explained below.) When you want
to see all channels and programs in the guide, turn filtering off.
Choose filter. Use the UP and DOWN arrows to highlight a category in the list, then press
SELECT. Choose a subcategory. The guide displays only channels with programs in that
subcategory.
When filtering is on, the guide will
show only channels that have a
program in that category within six hours
of the day and time selected. Programs
that don’t fit your category are grayed out.
