TiVo Basic
Welcome to the TiVo Basic service. The TiVo Basic service allows you to control live TV
and record programs on a specific channel at a specific time, much like a VCR. It also
includes an on-screen interactive program guide that provides up to three days of
information on your favorite upcoming programs. In addition, Showcases and TiVolution
Magazine help you get more out of your TV time. No further TiVo service activation is
necessary to enjoy the features of TiVo Basic service.
