CHANNEL LIST
The channel list is the list of channels provided by your TV programming source. The TiVo box uses this list to
determine which channels to display in the guide and which channels are available for searching and recording
shows.
If your channel list is incorrect, you can change your channel lineup. From the Channel List, press ENTER - the
rightmost button on the bottom row of your remote - to repeat Guided Setup.
The Channel List screen displays the complete list of channels available in your channel lineup. A check mark
appears next to each channel that will appear in the program guide and in search results. (You may see the
group of checked channels referred to as "My Channels" in the TiVo menus.) Move to a channel and press
SELECT to remove its check mark to hide the channel. For example, you may uncheck the channels to which you
don't subscribe.
Favorite Channels: Select channels that you watch frequently. Include only a few channels in this list, so that you
can quickly see what's coming up on them using the "Favorite Channels" filter in the guide. To choose a favorite
channel, move to the channel and press THUMBS UP – the right--most button below the GUIDE button and
above the Pause circle . Press THUMBS DOWN – the left-most button below the GUIDE button and above the
Pause Circle - to remove a channel from your favorites.
CHANNEL SCAN
Scanning for channels will identify all available channels. At the end of the scan, you will have the option to add
any newly discovered channels to your Channel List.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
Use the Signal Strength screens to test the incoming signal on specific digital channels.
Signal Strength - Antenna: The signal strength meter can help you make adjustments to your antenna position
to optimize the reception of antenna channels.
Signal Strength - Cable: The signal strength meter can also help diagnose cable signal issues. For example,
adding multiple RF splitters to your RF cable source (the cable coming from the wall) can result in reduced signal
strength on some channels. Use the meter to check signal strength with and without splitters.
MY VIDEO PROVIDERS
Use the this screen to select the video providers (like Netflix or Amazon) that you would like included in your
results when searching for TV shows and movies.
Note: OnePass works best when this list is up to date, with as many video providers as possible selected.
