Here’s an email we get a lot – and something I always forget to post on the blog: auto-record of TiVo Suggestions.<\/p>\n
When customers get a new hard drive from us (we’ve got them for every model TiVo) and they install it and set it up, they find that it’s recording a lot of shows that they haven’t requested. And, shows they don’t want.<\/p>\n
This is happening because TiVo Suggestions is on by default – and the new drive is using the default settings. And why are they shows you don’t want? Your thumbs-up and thumbs-down history was on your old drive. So the new drive has very little info to offer to the Suggestion engine.<\/p>\n
OK – here’s how to turn it off. Go to:<\/p>\n
Settings -> Recording -> TiVo Suggestions<\/p>\n
and choose No!<\/p>\n
That should do the trick. Now you can just delete the accumulated shows. If you have folders on, you should see them all in a folder marked “TiVo Suggestions”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
