Can I make my cable box wireless?

Is there a way to make a tivo use a satellite channel lineup and a cable box ir blaster code?

  • I have a series 2 DT TIVO and have recently gotten rid of cable and am using an antenna with a digital converter box (DTX9900). I found that if I tell the tivo that we have an Everquest brand cable box the IR codes work and channels change properly. The problem is that the cable channel lineup moves 2 of the channels we get to other channels. If I could tell the Tivo that we get the satellite tv with local channels, then I could get everything. Also, I tried taking the hard drive out and putting it in my computer as a second drive thinking I could maybe edit the IR codes file or some such. It said that the drive could not be mounted. Anyone know why that is?

  • Answer:

    No. You need to find a cable lineup that matches your OTA lineup, a converter box with satellite codes, or an older Series 2 that can actually be set up for a digital converter box, or an HD-TiVo model (which can tune digital antenna directly; HDTV not needed).
