TiVo Shanan
Here’s a little trivia for you: You (the broadband-connected you, that is) are now connected to the world’s largest Video on Demand library in the world, brought to you by TiVo!

And my, my, from movie titles to tickle the indie/international film freak, to Disney® classics for the whole family, TiVo truly has something for the movie-lover in all of us. This, on top of all the Hollywood blockbusters you can rent or buy through Amazon Video On Demand, and all the music videos you can muster through Music Choice on TiVo, of course, and yet that’s still not all…

Starting next month, all TiVo® HD customers* are going to fall in love with Netflix® all over again (it’s even better the second time around!) when you can send more than 12,000 movie and TV episodes straight to your living room using just your TiVo remote – learn more. Don’t have TiVo HD yet? At tivo.com you can pick up a “pre-loved” TiVo HD DVR for only $179.99.

Instead of long lines at the Cineplex, doesn’t a night at home with loved ones, home-popped popcorn and movies on TiVo sound both priceless and cozy?

To the modern movie marquee, thanks to TiVo,

Shanan

P.S. — Don’t forget to “share the love” on tivo.com where you can tell us how TiVo has changed your TV-watching life. Your brief quote will be published on our website to share with others in our great big TiVo family!

*Netflix available on TiVo HD, TiVo HD XL and TiVo Series3 DVRs.

And just in case you wondered what would happen if actors played presidents in real life (didn’t we try that already?), you should know that Harrison Ford, for his role in 1997′s Air Force One, beat out 16 candidates in AOL Moviefone’s poll to reveal the best fictional movie president Americans would like to see in the real-life Oval Office.

TiVo Tip: It’s a numbers thing

Here are two ways to tidy up your Now Playing List if you have a Series2™ or later model TiVo DVR:

  • Press 1 on your remote’s numeric keypad to toggle between alphabetical view and recording-date.
  • Press 2 to turn folders on and off; this feature groups all Daily Show episodes, for example, into one folder, or lets ‘em loose — whichever you prefer.

While you’re having fun with numbers, try similar shortcuts on the TiVo Central screen. For example, press 1 to jump to the Season Pass Manager, press 2 to bring up the To Do List, or press 4 to Search by Title. Think “search 4 (four)”.
