Nope not whatsoever , if your TiVo is plugged into HDMI 1 and you place this into HDMI 2 its as simple as changing the source to HDMI 2 to use it , the Roku stick would need to be connected to your router via wifi and your away.
Roku is great the only real criticism I'd have is you can't alter the DNS settings on the device meaning you can't switch Netflix regions unless you change the settings at the router , the other would be it's lack of Love film (now Amazon Prime instant) however I expect that to change as the US Roku has the Amazon Prime instant app and has done for a while.
