Catch every episode
The TiVo service gives you ultimate control over your TV viewing by keeping track of the latest TV schedule and automatically recording every episode of your favorite shows, even if the day or time they air changes. All you do is find the show you want by searching or browsing the TV listings, and then specify whether you want to record an individual episode, or get all episodes of a show (with or without repeats!). We call this a Season Pass™.
Avoid conflicts
No more choosing between shows airing at the same time! TiVo DVRs have two tuners, so they can record two different TV shows at the same time. (Which type of TV signals can be recorded varies by DVR model.)
You can even play back a third show that you’ve already saved while two new shows are recording.
Control live or recorded shows
Use pause, rewind, fast forward, instant replay, and slow motion to control live or recorded shows. TiVo DVRs can:
- Pause live or recorded shows (live TV can stay paused for 30 minutes)
- Rewind (3 different speeds)
- Fast forward (3 different speeds)
- Instant replay
- Slow motion
- Frame forward
- Frame reverse
- Skip-to-tick (jump ahead or back in 15 minute increments in recorded shows)
- Jump to the beginning of a show, the end of a show, or the point being broadcast live at that moment
Multi-room viewing
Having two or more TiVo DVRs connected to your home network gives you two or more times the viewing freedom. Record a show on one TiVo DVR and watch it on another in the house. Start a movie in the living room and finish it in the bedroom!
Not only can you find and record favorites quickly and easily, the TiVo service scours thousands of hours of TV listings to make sure you’re getting the most out of your TV.
Search for shows
You can search for shows by title, actor, category, or keyword with a specific word in the title or episode description, like “House”. You can search for shows in a particular category, like “Cooking” shows about “Chocolate”, or “Football” programs with “Giants”. You can even find every movie with Johnny Depp, or every movie directed by Steven Spielberg. If it is available on your television lineup, the TiVo service can find it and record it for you.
Record by actor, director
Record even by your favorite sports team. Use a TiVo WishList™ search to find every show with your favorite actor, director, keyword, or sports team. Your TiVo DVR will save your search, and if you like, automatically record every new show that matches it.
Swivel Search
Swivel from actors, to movies, to other actors, to other movies. Select your favorite director and see every movie available to record or download. Select one of those movies and see all of the actors in it. Select an actor and see the other movies they’ve starred in. When you’ve found a movie you like, see recommendations for other movies you might like. With Swivel Search, you can easily wander through the all of the TV shows and movies available on your TiVo DVR and record or download the ones that interest you.
New: TiVo Search (beta)
Available on broadband-connected TiVo HD, HD XL and Series3 DVRs, TiVo Search helps you find your favorite shows quickly, then lets you discover a world of related entertainment—TV and movie titles, other shows featuring the same actor or director, relevant YouTube videos, and more—all ready to watch, record and download on your TiVo DVR. Search with keywords, phrases, logos, poster art, and actor’s photos. It’s a whole new way to find what you’ve been looking for.
See shows TiVo recommends just for you
TiVo Suggestions are personalized shows selected to match your preferences. Any time you watch a live TV or recorded show, or see something you like or don’t like in the Guide, you can rate that show by using the THUMBS UP or the THUMBS DOWN buttons on your remote control.
When the TiVo DVR has empty space, it will automatically record shows that are liked by other people who like the same shows you do. This is an excellent way to discover new shows that may interest you. TiVo Suggestions never replace any shows you request, or prevent them from being recorded. Suggestions are always the first programs to be deleted when it’s time for one of your shows to record.
