The TiVo Service tries to make sure there is always something interesting on for you to
watch. When you aren’t using it, your Receiver is hard at work, sifting through
upcoming programs to find things you might like. How does it know what you will
like? It tries to predict your preferences based on Thumb ratings you have given other
programs, and on the single THUMBS UP given to programs you choose to record.
You can check
$$
occasionally to see what TiVo has found for you.
The list of programs is ranked, so shows you are more likely to enjoy are near the top.
TiVo’s Suggestions improve over time as you record and rate programs. The more you
use the THUMBS buttons, the better TiVo’s Suggestions become. You can use the
THUMBS buttons while you are browsing
$$
or whenever you are:
watching live TV or browsing through the Program Guide
viewing a
$&&
screen (for example, to schedule a recording)
looking through a
3"
or
!$>
When there is empty space in
3!$F
the TiVo Service may record one of TiVo’s
suggestions for you. Suggestions are marked in
3!$
with a TiVo icon ( ).
The Receiver never deletes a program you requested to make room for a suggestion.
Instead, suggestions are deleted to make room for recordings you schedule. (A
preference that prevents
$$
from recording automatically is
described on page 83.)
$$
that have been recorded once will not
record again for at least 28 days.
