TiVo SDOC-00091-002 manual Finding Programs Using a WishList Search

Finding Programs Using a WishList® Search

A WishList search finds programs that match your interests, tastes, and whims on any channel you receive. And it keeps on searching for as long as you keep the WishList search.

For example, you could create a Category Only WishList search for the category Movies and subcategory Comedy. You could then occasionally browse a list of all comedy movies airing in the next two weeks. The list is updated each time your DVR connects to the TiVo service.

You could search for something more specific by creating an Actor WishList search for Sean Connery, and then include the category Movies, and subcategory Action. This WishList search would find action movies starring Sean Connery.

With a Keyword WishList search, you can search for something very specific. For example, the Keyword GIANTS with category Football would find Giants football games, but not Giants baseball games.

Can the WishList Feature Do More Than Search?

Yes it can! You can set a WishList search to auto-record, and it will record every show it finds, on any channel you receive. For example, with the Sean Connery Actor WishList search, you would automatically collect Sean Connery action movies in the Now Playing List.

Some WishList searches are better suited to auto-recording than others. For example, a Category Only WishList search for the category Documentary would find every upcoming documentary. You might not want to record them all, but you could occasionally browse the search results list and choose the ones you do want to record.
