Sorting & Grouping Programs

With TiVo PlusTM, you can sort and group programs in the Now Playing list. While in Now Playing, press ENTER on the remote to see Now Playing Options. You can also Press 1 on the remote to change the sort order of Now Playing programs; or press 2 to turn groups on or off.

Sorting Programs. Choose how you want the programs in Now Playing to be listed:

Alphabetically. Programs are listed alphabetically by title (from A to Z).

By date recorded. Programs are listed by the date they were recorded, with the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom.

Grouping Programs. The Groups option lets you group like programs together to “tidy up” the screen. When you turn on Groups, a folder appears in Now Playing for:

Each television series with more than one recorded episode;

Each auto-recording WishListTM with a recorded program;

TiVo Suggestions (if you have auto-recording of TiVo Suggestions turned on).

A program may fit in any or all of these categories, so it may appear in more than one group, even though only one copy of the program is actually recorded. For example, say you have an auto-recording WishList for an actor who also appears in a series, and you have a Season PassTM for that series. Each episode of the series that records will appear in two folders—one for the WishList and one for the Season Pass. If you delete the program from one folder, it also disappears from the other.

A number in parentheses to the right of each folder shows how many programs it contains. If you delete a program from one folder, it will disappear from all folders.

A note at the bottom of Now Playing tells you which sorting option you are using and whether groups are on.
