QUICK TOUR - MY SHOWS
All of your recordings, streaming videos, and downloaded or transferred shows appear in the My Shows list. To
get to the My Shows list from any menu screen or from live TV, just press the TiVo button - at the top of your
remote control - twice. (Press it only once if you’re already on the TiVo Central screen.)
Note: Your TiVo Mini must be connected to a host DVR to view your My Shows list.
My Shows contains both individual shows or movies, as well as folders for series or other related shows. We’ll
talk more about folders later.
When you highlight an individual show in My Shows (even one that’s currently recording) and press PLAY - at the
top of the circle around the PAUSE button in the center of your remote, the show will play from the beginning or
to resume playing from where you left off. When you highlight a folder in My Shows and press PLAY, all of the
shows in the group play in sequence, beginning with the oldest.
You can also highlight a show in My Shows and press SELECT - the round button at the center of the arrows
circle on your remote. On an individual show, this opens a Program Details screen, where you’ll be able to play,
delete, or get more information about the show. Pressing SELECT on a folder takes you to the contents of that
folder, with the first show in the folder highlighted. Press SELECT again to open the Program Details screen.
To delete an individual show or a folder, highlight it and press CLEAR - the leftmost button on the bottom row
of your remote. If you are deleting a OnePass folder that contains recordings, you will have the option to convert
the recordings to streaming videos. This option can be useful if you are trying to conserve disk space. Note that
deleting a show from a TiVo Mini will also delete it from the host DVR.
When viewing the My Shows list, use the CHANNEL UP/DOWN button to jump an entire page at a time - the
CHANNEL UP/DOWN button is the vertical oval button on the right between the arrow circle and the Pause
circle on your remote.
USING MY SHOWS CATEGORIES
The left column of the My Shows list contains categories that help you quickly locate shows in the list. Highlight
a category in the left column to view shows only in that category; for example, highlight “Kids” to view only kids’
shows, or “Movies” to view only movies.
NOTE: When the “Kids” category is turned on, shows and movies for kids will appear only in that category. (For
example, you’ll find kids movies under “Kids,” not under “Movies.”)
PERSONALIZING YOUR MY SHOWS LIST
You can personalize your My Shows list by hiding certain categories or changing the category order. To
personalize your My shows list:
1. Press the A button - the leftmost button in the line of buttons between the PAUSE circle and the number pad
on your remote.
2. Select ‘Left column.’
3. To hide a category, just uncheck it. Highlight the category you want to hide and press SELECT - the round
button at the center of the arrows circle on your remote.
4. To change the order of the categories, highlight the one you want to move, press the RIGHT arrow - on the
right of the arrows circle just below the TiVo button on your remote, and then use the UP and DOWN arrows
to place the category where you want it.
5. When you're happy with your list, press the A button twice to return to the My Shows list. The A button is the
leftmost button in the line of buttons between the PAUSE circle and the number pad on your remote.
