Search by show title, episode title, show description, or person name (actor, director, etc.). The
TiVo service searches upcoming TV shows and movies, streaming videos (from sources like

the letters HOW, you might see matches for the TV show “How I Met Your Mother,” the On
Demand movie “How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days,” and the director Ron Howard. Results
are sorted by popularity, with better matches higher in the list.

Pause/Play, Rewind and Fast Forward 
While watching live, recorded or Video on Demand shows, pressing the center “OK” button on the remote will bring up the on screen “Trickplay” controls.  This screen contains the on screen buttons for Fast Forward, Re-Wind Pause and Play.  It also contains buttons to Skip Ahead and Skip Back and Start Over from the beginning for a recording or Go to Live TV.  The menu also contains a faint white line showing a one-hour period. The green segment of the line shows the portion of the hour that has been saved by your TiVo device. You can rewind or fastforward anywhere within that green segment. The thick white line marks your current point in time. When the white line is back in the green segment, you’re “behind” live TV.

Note: Customers without nDVR service will be able to Pause Live TV up until the 10-minute buffer.  Once reached, Video playback will resume.  Depending on a channel’s rights, FF may not be available.  Customers would either continue watching TV from the resume point, or skip ahead to Live TV.

When you search or browse for movies or individual episodes of a series, your results include

Streaming Movies group in the All Shows filter. Available TV shows are added to the TV Series
category and to All Shows.
 
If a streaming video is currently unavailable from any of your video providers, its added to the
