I'm moving from Window's Media Center with a cable card tuner to a Roamio Plus. I'm trying to learn the idiosyncrasies of Tivo. At first blush it’s a great improvement over WMC. But, like all humans, I like my routine and want to do some of the things that I was used to on WMC. So, I’m here to ask how I do things on Tivo that I was able to do on WMC. Hopefully the experts here can steer me in the right direction.
Remote control
- When I press the jump forward button on the Tivo remote it goes forward 30 seconds. However, it emulates a fast forward. Is there a way to change this to jump instantly 30 seconds? I’m not fond of the FF emulation.
- On WMC jump back defaulted to 10 seconds and jump forward was 29 seconds. But they were modifiable to any number I want. College football is better when jump forward is 20 seconds, not 30. Is it possible to change those in Tivo?
- On WMC I can press a number on the keypad and then press jump and it multiplies the jump. For example, press 20 on the keypad and jump and it will jump 20 times 30 seconds, a total of 10 minutes forward. Can I do a similar task in Tivo.
- On WMC I can press a number on the keypad and then press play. It will jump to that point (in minutes) on the recording. For example, press 60 and Play and it will jump 60 minutes into the program. Can I do this somehow in Tivo?
- On WMC when I pressed mute it automatically turned on close captions. Works great when the phone rings and the wife picks up the phone. Any way to do that in Tivo?
- On WMC when in the guide or watching a show, pressing the red record button once recorded the show, pressing it twice set up a season pass. Is there a similar method do an automatic OnePass?
General
- WMC automatically recorded up to 2.5 hours in the live TV buffer. How much is in the Tivo live buffer?
- On recorded TV show listing I can list them descending by title. Can the recorded list be sorted in Tivo?
For the most part Tivo does things waaaay better than WMC, I’m just trying to raise my comfort level.s
