I haven't scheduled enough programs to fill my DMS, but when I try to schedule more programs, the DMS says there isn't room. • The TiVo service includes smart scheduling features that track not only how much space you currently have on your DMS, but also how much space will be needed in the future to record all of the programs you have scheduled. If your DMS will be full at some point in the future, the TiVo service informs you and suggests options-such as allowing some programs to be deleted early-that will allow you to schedule additional recordings.

will allow you to schedule additional recordings. With the TiVo service, you always have the final say over what gets recorded and

In addition, the amount of recording space the DMS needs varies from channel to channel and from show to show. In general, the
more action you see on your screen, such as in fast-moving sports or action movies, the more recording space is required. Weaker
