Trick Play Buttons by Box Type

Important:

  • Single Tuner TiVos cannot pause, FF, replay, etc. Live TV
  • Single Tuners do not have a hard drive and cannot buffer program
 

Use Trick Play on Live TV

  • When tuning to a channel, a Live TV buffer starts

    • With a buffer, you can pause and rewind the program you are watching
    • You can also start a paused program and fast forward to catch up

  • The Live TV buffer saves as far back as 30 minutes, as long as you don't change the channel

    • If you change the channel, the buffer starts over again on the new channel

  • The green status bar shows a one hour period on Live and recorded TV, allowing you to keep track of where you are

  • The green line in the status bar shows the recorded portion of the show or the buffer when in live TV

  • The thick white line shows the current point in time, the smaller white tick marks show 15 minute intervals
