TiVo Settings Access Control

Hello all,

Though mentioned from time to time and asked about as well, I cannot seem to find anything on point with regard to securing a TiVo Mini so that all it can do is "watch" TV--and have ZERO access to settings nor to be able to change accounts, etc.

Here's my issue... I love our new TiVo Bolt+ and we have a number of Minis in our house. Two of which are in guest rooms. I'm not exactly fond of the fact that our houseguests have been able to delete recordings on our Bolt+ and/or try to enter their own credentials for streaming services. Oh, and I was REALLY annoyed when some of our guests added channels back into the lineup which I had specifically disabled in our channel lineup. It's not that we have friends and family who want to annoy us--they simply did not realize that their changes would affect our whole house!

I would not mind if guests could add recordings, I just don't want them able to delete any of them! When some recent guests came down for breakfast, they could not stop talking about how awesome the latest episode of one of our favorite shows was the previous night--an episode which we could not watch because they had deleted it after watching it! (Again, they did not understand the implications of doing so.)

So... Does anyone know of a way to make a TiVo mini into more of a "read-only" device?

Thanks!
