Chapter 5 You can use the "Save to VCR" ® feature with a DVD recorder. Just connect a DVD recorder to your DVR (see page 20), and follow the same steps listed here. (See your DVD recorder's instructions for details on how to record a DVD.) 74 Watching Live and Recorded Programs Save to VCR If you have a VCR, you can save a program from Now Playing to a videotape. Transfers to a VCR happen 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-you can fast forward through the boring parts! The VCR will record the video exactly as it appears, including the status bar, channel banner, and any icons on the screen. Using Save to VCR: 1. Be sure your TiVo DVR is connected to your VCR (see Chapter 1 for details), and the VCR is set to record input from your TiVo DVR. (See your VCR's instructions for how to set its input.) 2. Insert a videotape into your VCR. 3. Go to Now Playing, highlight the show you want to save, then press SELECT. 4. Highlight "Save to VCR," then press SELECT. 5. Select "Start saving from the beginning." 6. A title screen appears for ten seconds. When you see it, press your VCR's record button. When the program is over, press stop on your VCR. You can cancel saving to VCR by pressing the LIVE TV or TiVo button on your remote. A videotape icon appears as a warning. Press the same button again and a confirmation screen appears giving you the option to resume saving at a later time, or cancel saving to VCR. If you choose to cancel saving, be sure to press stop on your VCR as well.
