Chapter 6
Features of TiVo Plus
These three types of repeating recordings have the following in common:
• No duplicates within 28 days. If you watch or delete a particular episode or showing,
it will not be recorded automatically again for 28 days. This prevents Now Playing
from filling up with shows you probably don’t want. If you want to record duplicates,
go to Recording Options, Show Type, and select “All (with duplicates).”
• Parental Controls. If Parental Controls are on when you schedule a repeating
recording, the Recorder checks its current program information to see if any upcoming
program violates a Parental Control. If a program does, the Recorder requires the
current password to continue. TiVo Plus service is not required to use Parental
Controls. (For more information, see page 53.)
• Keep at Most. By default, five episodes of a repeating recording program are kept in
Now Playing. (To learn how to change this setting, see page 75.)
• Resolving conflicts. The TiVo Plus service resolves scheduling conflicts between
repeating recordings by comparing recording priorities. If a conflict occurs when
you’re setting up a new repeating recording, you’ll be shown which programs are
involved. You’ll also be given options to resolve the conflict:
• Record only those programs that do not conflict with others previously scheduled
to record. This gives the repeating recording the lowest priority.
• Record all programs requested. This gives the repeating recording the highest
priority.
You can change recording priorities with the Season Pass Manager. (For more
information, see page 77.)
An exception to the 28-day rule may
occur if the program wasn’t watched
but was automatically deleted from Now
Playing to make room for another
recording you requested—or if the
program information describes it
incorrectly.
