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 a WishList 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 Now Playing.
Some WishList searches are better suited 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.
The more specific a WishList
search is, the better suited it is to
auto-recording.
