Windows XP lets each person who uses the computer (each “user”) set up 
individual preferences. Each user can install different software or customize 
the look of the computer’s screen.

After one user installs TiVo Desktop, both TiVo Publisher and TiVo Server 
are available to other users of the same computer. Each user can run TiVo 
Publisher to select music and photos. When a user logs in, that user’s 
collection of published music and photos become available to the TiVo 
Series2 DVR if TiVo Server is running for that user.

When the user who installed TiVo Desktop logs in, TiVo Server starts 
automatically. Other users must select the option to start it automatically as 
described in “Starting, Exiting, and Pausing the TiVo Server” on page 41.
