Playing DVDs and CDs
Playing a DVD or CD
You must complete Guided Setup before you can play CDs, and play or record DVDs. For
instructions, see “Completing Guided Setup” on page 3.
If you finished “Tour Four: Playing a DVD or CD” on page 16, then you already know the
basics of playing a DVD or CD on your Recorder. This section provides a bit more detail
and also describes some advanced playback features.
Inserting a Disc
To put a disc into the Recorder, press the OPEN/CLOSE ( ) button on the front panel of
your Recorder to open the disc tray. Put in the disc with the label side facing up, using the
disc tray guide to align it, then press OPEN/CLOSE again to close the disc tray. Press
PLAY (
) to start the disc.
The Recorder’s DVD Screen
After you put in a disc, you can simply highlight the DVD option on TiVo Central and
press play to play the disc. For more options, view the Recorder’s DVD screen. To go to
the Recorder’s DVD screen, highlight the DVD option on TiVo Central and press
SELECT, or press the DVD button on the remote. The DVD screen may give options such
as Resume Playing, if you have already been watching the DVD, or Search Disc options.
Front Panel
While playing a DVD, the Recorder’s front panel displays the title, chapter, and time
elapsed in the current title. While playing MP3 files on CD, or while playing an audio CD,
the front panel displays the number and elapsed time of the current track.
This Recorder can play DVDs marked
with the region code “1” or “ALL.”

that are compatible with the Recorder, see
