What Customers Say About How to Do Everything with Your TiVo (How to Do Everything):
|
|
A large section is devoted to programing and using a device made by Pioneer, not the Tivo. But the illustrations of Tivo menus are not like those found on todays Tivo. Why not rewrite the book and bring it up to date. The program keystrokes shown are good. This book was probably more useful in 2004 when it was written.
;-) And if your that advanced you're probably not reading this review anyway. Ok not great only thing I really use is the commercial skip code which you can find online anyway. If you know nothing about Tivo then this can be a handy reference but if you are more advanced then you can find more and better info on the web with a Google search.
If you're looking for something more advanced look elsewhere. This book, while very informative offers no more information than the users manual.
This text enabled me to easily upgrade my TiVo's disk, something my box's manual didn't go into in enough dept and simplicity. Well written and detailed book.
And remembering that a TiVo is a special type of personal computer, you get instructions on how to upgrade its disk. Talk about convenient. For those of you with DVD players, and especially recorders, sections of the book describe how you can hook these up to the TiVo and get everything working with each other. You should find this an easy read, in learning how to effectively use your TiVo. Very good for the heavy user. Plus, you can find out how to use various listings offered by third parties. The company has spent a lot of time in trying to make the user experience as simple as possible.Carter gives hardware tips as to various accessory items you might want to hook up your TiVo to. Notably AOL, which offers a neat Remote Scheduling of its TV listings.
