Guide Options
&
the TiVo Live Guide
With this update, we've added advanced Guide Options to the TiVo Live Guide (the
program guide). Guide Options let you quickly change the day and time displayed,
select a channel list, or set the Live Guide to filter out all but a select category of
programs.
To see Guide Options. Simply press ENTER while the TiVo Live Guide is visible.
To change a Guide Option. Highlight it, and then press thc LEFT or RIGHT arrows
to change the option displayed. Save your changes by pressing ENTER again or
LIVE TV/GUIDE. To discard your changes, press CLEAR.
Guide Options you have available are:
Channels. You can choose which channels the TiVo Live Guide will show by
using a channel list. Also, channels that are not in your list will be skipped when
you use the CHAN UP/DOWN Button. (You can always go to a specific
channel, even if it's not in the list you choose, by pressing the numbers on your
remote, then pressing ENTER/JUMP. For details on how to set up a custom
channel list, see pagc 26 in "What's New in Messages & Setup.") The three
channel lists available are:
You Receive. This is the default list. It displays only the channels you chose
in the Channels You Receive screen. (You may remember this screen from
Guided Setup.) You can customize the Channels You Receive list by
revisiting it in Messages & Setup. (See page 26 in "What's New in Messages
& Setup" for detailed instructions.)
Favorites. This list is a great way to save time when browsing the TiVo Live
Guide. You can set up a Favorite Channels list in Messages & Setup. (See
page 26 in "What's New in Messages & Setup" for detailed instmctions.)
All. This list displays all of your cable or satellite provider's channels even if
they do not have a check next to them on the Channels You Receive screen.
Day and Time. To see future program f:,'1lide infOlmation, highlight Day, then
usc the LEFT and RIGHT arrows to changovthe displayed day. You can use the
same buttons to change Time. Save your changes by pressing ENTER. (Note
that you cannot view past program information in the program guide.)
Filtering. (Choosing a filter is explained below.) To tum the TiVo Live Guide
filtering on or off, use the LEFT and RIGHT arrows.
Choose filter. Select this option, then use the UP and DOWN arrows to
highlight a category by which to filter the guide. Press SELECT to choose it.
You can also choose a sub-category. When filtering is on, programs that do not
fit the selected category appear gray in the guide. In addition, the guide will only
show channels that have a program in the selected category within six hours of
the time the program guide displays. Unlike channel lists, filtering does not
affect which channels you go to with the CHAN UP/DOWN button.
