Online Scheduling 
You don’t need a home network to use Online Scheduling at TiVo Central 
Online (
). But if your home network includes a shared 
broadband Internet connection, your DVR retrieves your Online Scheduling 
requests faster and more often—within an hour!
Although TiVo Central Online uses your DVR’s selected channel lineup, be 
aware that it may display program info for programs that are broadcast on 
channels you do not actually receive. (For example, if Showtime
® 
is in your 
channel lineup, programs that air on Showtime are displayed in search 
results even if you don’t subscribe to it.)
Before you schedule a recording, make sure it is on a channel you actually 
receive so you do not end up with an “empty recording” in Now Playing. 
Refer to the lineup card you received from your cable or satellite provider 
for your complete list of channels. Then check the Channels You Receive 
screen on your DVR. To do this, go to TiVo Central, then Messages & Setup, 
then Settings, then Channels, then Channels You Receive. Make sure each 
channel you receive has a yellow checkmark next to it. 
To find programs using TiVo Central Online, go to 
 and 
sign in. Once you’re signed in, you can search for shows to record.
