Re: Remote Tivo viewing

Well, I reckon between you two excellent helpers you might well have solved my problem.

Can I just run through what I understand?

To do:

Fit HDMI splitter, longish HDMI cable to 2nd TV.
Ethernet connection, Tivo to router (in addition to normal cable connection).

Download VM Tivo Control App to my smartphone.

Then:

I am in ‘second TV room’, and using my phone I can access ‘My Shows’ (or whatever) and play a programme on the second TV.

My partner is in the ‘main’ TV room, and at the same time can use her Tivo remote to view whatever she wants on ‘her’ TV.

And the only advantage in me getting my Tivo upgraded to V6 is that (given 2 remotes) I could use my V6 remote in my 2nd room?

Please put me straight if I’m off-track, as although I try hard to ‘get it’ all, I am old and doddery!

Ta.

Allen
