CableCARD Installation
The TiVo HD DVR uses CableCARD decoders from your cable company to replace your existing cable box. This allows for direct connection to your cable service. For digital cable, you may require up to two CableCARD decoders to enable recording of two shows simultaneously and to support HD channels. It is recommended to contact your cable service provider to arrange for CableCARD installation and activation. Ensure you have performed the guided setup on your TiVo HD DVR before the technician arrives. For detailed instructions and support, visit tivo.com.
