Season Pass
A Season Pass records every episode of a series that airs on a certain channel—even if the
day or time slot changes! It is totally automatic and really easy to set up. Just select a
program (from the TiVo Live Guide, Search By Title, View upcoming, etc.) and choose
“Get a Season Pass.” There are two other types of recordings that repeat automatically:
•
Manual Repeating Recording: Records on a specific channel at a specific time, just as
you would with a VCR. See page 47 for more information.
•
Auto-recording WishLists: Records all the programs a WishList finds. See page 42.
These three types of repeating recordings also 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).” You can also
schedule a single duplicate recording for a particular program.
•
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. See page 53 for more information.
•
Keep at Most=5. By default, five episodes of a repeating recording program are kept
in Now Playing. (You can change this setting; for more information, see page 34.)
•
Resolving conflicts. The TiVo service resolves scheduling conflicts between
repeating recordings by comparing recording priorities. You can change recording
priorities with the Season Pass Manager. (See page 48 for more details).
An exception to the 28-day rule may
occur if the program wasn’t watched
but was deleted from Now Playing to
make room for another recording you
requested—or if the program information
describes it incorrectly.
