I'm very confused about TiVo! Please help!?
-
I was planning on purchasing a Tivo in the next week or two, but after doing some research, I'm getting really worried. There's all this talk about SDV and cable cards, and I have to say I'm a little out of my league. I have Time Warner digital cable in Milwaukee. Can anyone tell me if it will be super difficult to hook up or if I will have problems with receiving some channels? I'm not completely electronically illiterate, but I haven't had much experience in this realm. Can anyone help??

Answer:
There will probably be instructions that come with it, but I would assume you would do the following: 1. Connect the cable that comes out of the wall to the TIVO box jack labeled in. You would probably have to disconnect that cable from your cable box. 2. Connect the out jack in the TIVO box to your cable box in jack, which should already have a cable coming from the cable box out jack to the TV's in jack. If not, then connect that cable from the out on your cable box to the in on the TV. You will have to follow instructions to create settings for your TIVO box. You might check with your cable company to see whether it has its own version of TIVO. I have satellite and it was very much cheaper to go with DirecTV's version of it. With the arrival of HDTV, you might consider whether you want to wait so that you can be recording high definition instead of standard TV. HDTV would require a new TV, cable box, and TIVO recorder. You may be stuck with a bid investment in old technology.
