Due to the great variety of TVs and A/V receivers available, some makes

and models may not be compatible with your TiVo remote control.

If you’re unable to program the TiVo remote to work with your equipment, trythe “learning” function on page 55, or try our online suppot for remote controls. Search for “Code Search” at www.tivo.com/ support. The article about performing a code search may help you find a compatible remote code.

Programmable Buttons

Some buttons on the TiVo remote are programmable; see the inside front cover of this guide for details. To program the buttons:
