What is TiVo Central?

TiVo Central is the starting place on your TiVo DVR, much like the Desktop is on your computer.

From this 'desktop' you are able to access the other features of your TiVo DVR such as My Shows or Now Playing List, your Video On Demand and Internet features, setup and organize your OnePass (or Season Passes), and access your DVR's settings.

To access TiVo Central, press the TiVo button on the Tivo remote control.

If your remote doesn't have a TiVo button perform the following steps.

Step 1: Did the remote come with your TiVo DVR?

Yes: Continue to step 2.

No: you are using a Universal Remote or third-party remote that does not allow you to access TiVo Central, you will need to use your TiVo remote to do this.

Step 2: Did you receive your TiVo DVR from Sparklight?

Yes: The TiVo Central button may be a Sparklight logo.

No: If your TiVo DVR is a Series1, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your Series1 to obtain the remote for your DVR. Click here for contact information on contacting your Series1 manufacturer. If you have a Series2 or newer, replacement TiVo remotes are available through the TiVo store.
