Can I record two programs at the same time, or 
watch one channel and record another?

The TiVo

®

 HD DVR is capable of recording two 

programs on two different channels at the same time (dual tuner). 
Dual tuner functionality depends on your TV programming source, 
and how it is connected to your TiVo DVR.

• If your TV programming source is antenna only, the DVR is 

configured for dual tuner.

• If your TV programming source is antenna and basic cable (no 

CableCARD decoders), the DVR is configured for dual tuner.

• If your TV programming source includes CableCARD

TM

, you must have two CableCARD decoders installed for 

dual tuner functionality. 

Note: A single multi-stream CableCARD decoder installed in 
the bottom slot on the back of the DVR enables dual tuner 
functionality. However, as of the first publication of this guide, 
multi-stream CableCARD decoders are not yet available.

What is the difference between HD programs and SD 
programs?

• High-definition programs are broadcast with the highest quality 

digital sound and picture available. See “Understanding HDTV” 
on page vi (in the first section of this guide) to learn more about 
high-definition television.

High-definition recordings take up more space on your DVR 
than standard programs to preserve the superior quality of the 
broadcast.

Why can’t I adjust the recording quality of some 
programs?

• There’s no option to change the recording quality of programs 

broadcast in high-definition.
