Save to VCR If you have a VCR, you can save a program from Now Playing to a videotape. Transfers happen to a VCR in real time. For example, if a program is two hours long, it will take two hours to save it. You will not be able to watch live TV or recordings while saving. Most of the buttons on your remote that control live TV work as usual during Save to VCR. Keep in mind that the VCR will record the video exactly as it is played. (This means you can fast forward through the boring parts!) If you press a button on your remote that would actually interrupt the transfer to VCR-for example, if you press GUIDE, the TiVo button, or PAUSE-a videotape icon appears as a warning. Preparing to Save to VCR: 1. Set up your VCR. Be sure you have connected your TiVo recorder's video and audio to your VCR's video and audio. (See the guides that came with your TiVo recorder for details on how to connect your TiVo recorder to a VCR.) 2. Be sure your VCR is set to record input from your TiVo recorder, not some other video source. (See your VCR's instructions for how to set the input.) 3. Make sure you have a videotape in the VCR. Using Save to VCR: 1. Go to Now Playing, highlight the show you want to save, then press SELECT. 2. Using the arrow buttons, highlight "Save to VCR," then press SELECT. 3. Select "Start saving from the beginning."
