Sorting Programs 
You can view the Now Playing List either alphabetically by title (from A to Z) or by date 
recorded. To change how the list is sorted:
1.
From Now Playing, press ENTER on your TiVo remote to see Now Playing Options.
2.
Highlight Sort, then press LEFT button to choose By Date Recorded.
 
Then select View 
Now Playing List With These Options.
When you return to Now Playing, programs are listed by the date they were recorded, with 
the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom. TiVo Suggestions always appear at 
the bottom of the list.
Grouping Programs
When Groups are on, programs are organized into folders, and a number in parentheses to the 
right of each folder shows how many programs it contains. To turn Groups on:
1.
From Now Playing, press ENTER on your TiVo remote to see Now Playing Options. 
2.
Select Groups, then press RIGHT button to choose On. Then select View Now Playing List 
With These Options. When you return to Now Playing, you’ll see a folder for 
• Each television series with more than one recorded episode;
• Each auto-recording WishList
TM
 search with a recorded program;
• TiVo Suggestions (if you have auto-recording of TiVo Suggestions turned on).
A program’s title may appear in more than one folder, even though there is only one recording 
of the program. For example, you might have an auto-recording WishList search for an actor 
who also appears in a series, and you have a Season Pass
TM
 for that series. Each episode of the 
series will appear in two folders—one for the WishList search and one for the Season Pass 
recording. If you delete the program in one folder, the title also disappears from the other.
From the Now Playing List, press 1 
on the remote to change the sort 
order of programs, or press 2 to turn 
groups on or off.
®
A note at the bottom of the Now Playing List tells 
you which sorting option you are using and 
whether groups are on.
