Tour Two: The TiVo Live Guide
Your recorder’s program guide, the TiVo Live Guide, lets you see what’s on, change
channels, schedule recordings, and more—all while you’re watching live TV. Press the
GUIDE button to see the TiVo Live Guide.
On the left side of the TiVo Live Guide, there is a list of channels and their current
programs. The channel you’re watching is highlighted with a blue bar, and a description of
the current program appears at the top of the grid. On the right side is a list of upcoming
programs on the highlighted channel.
Choose a Program to Watch
See something you’d like to watch? Press the UP and DOWN arrows to move the
highlight bar to it. (Notice that the description at the top and list of upcoming programs on
the right side change.) Then press SELECT on the highlighted channel—the channel
changes and the program guide disappears. Press the GUIDE button again to bring the
guide back. (Remember, whenever you change channels, programming saved from the old
channel is cleared, and the recorder starts to save what is showing on the new channel.)
Record a Program
You can always record the program you’re watching by pressing the RECORD ( )
button on your remote control. You can also use the TiVo Live Guide to record current or
future programs. (See page 25 for more on recording from live TV.)
Highlight any program you see in the TiVo Live Guide and press RECORD. A transparent
screen with recording choices appears. Choose an option or press the LEFT arrow to go
back to the TiVo Live Guide.
When you record from live TV, you
can record both the saved portion
(up to the last half hour) and the rest of
the program. See page 25 for details.
