    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    The problem is it takes 4 batteries that are on the bottom so all the weight is there. I can't use it because it causes shooting pain up my wrist.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    That is not what happened before. I was recording one thing on channel 9 on TV1 and on both tv's I was able to watch 2 different programs on each TV. I'm past the point of understanding. Nothing makes sense. I'm a visual learner. I have to look at things to understand which is why the...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I'm in Solo mode now and it is doing something that people here said it wouldn't. I have a list of questions for the tech tomorrow to try to figure this out. Once I see what is what I can pick your brain about an antennae. Right now my brain is much thinking about this. But I'd still like to...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I don't think he was a newbie. Just wanted to get home. I'm going to get organized and give my brain a break since i'm on overload. But now I understand more so I'll actually know what to ask. A lot of this could have been resolved with a quick 10 minute lesson the other day.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    He just wanted to get home to his 4 kids. I'd ask him a question and he'd grab the remote and do it and not show me. He went over the basics of how to record and that was it. And he showed me PIP because I asked. And because I had no idea how this worked (my frame of reference is Tivo), I...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Yes I am completely confused and though I appreciate you trying to help, this confused me even more LOL. Probably because it isn't dumbed down enough. I'm working with Zach who is sending a technician out. A 10 minute lesson on the remote buttons clearly isn't enough to understand how it all...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Deadlocked and Zach, that would be great if someone could come and get this set. I'm just not confident, given my previous experiences, that I'll get any help if I call customer service. I'm going to experiment later and report back. I do remember the first night, and I think it was in...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I need a break. My brain can't absorb anymore. I'll experiment tomorrow with a few things and let you know what happens. FyI I was given no information about what I was getting, how it works, no explanation except how to use the remote to record. The tech couldn't get out of here fast...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I'm still confused I think. So when it says it's recording on 2 in solo mode, that means tuner 2 and not TV2? Maybe I'm not understanding terminology. I did just look and it is not recording 2 shows at the same time. I've tried to set it up and it will not do it. This defeats the purpose...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    And I just tried to schedule another timer at 9 PM. There is one show set to record at 9 on tv 1 so it should have set it up for tv2 and it said there was a conflict. So WTH?

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Zach I believe you are wrong. This is what just happened. I put my TV in single mode and had previously set the Record Plus to TV1. I canceled a program that was set to record on TV2. I reentered the timer and it put it back on TV 2. I cancelled it. Checked and it had Record plus set...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    ohioankev So if I'm in single mode, I can watch one channel while another is recording? I get that if I'm recording 2 things at the same time I have to watch one. So I want to be in single mode and turn off power setting. Then on TV 1 I can watch one channel and record on another and...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Zach, most likely only one tv is on at a time. Right now I have turned the Power thing off. I think it is in Dual mode. If I want to record something on TV1 but watch another channel on TV1, can I do that? I get that TV2 is a "dumb" tv. I'm getting confused with other people chiming in.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Right now, it was not working the way I wanted it to, it was unwieldy and difficult and I was constantly canceling and restarting timers. I wanted to set up my Tivo because I was sick of dealing with that AND because I can't manage the remote. I'll try what Zach said for now and not hook up...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Zach, Ok that might work and lower my frustration level. I have a question. If I set up to record from TV1 two shows that are on at the same time, but one has multiple showings throughout the week. Will it find another time that show is on and record it? Also, if I'm on TV 1 and a show...

    It doesn't matter. I got a 722. A basic remote will be here tomorrow.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Zach I change the setting and it is still not working right. I already deleted things and readied them. I'll test it out and see what happens. I'm guessing there is no way to choose where I want it to record while I'm setting it up without going back and forth to change the TV and then...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Hi, First I'm a she! I am new to satellite. When I was signing up I asked for the 622 because I didn't want HD. I instead was given the 722. Not being able to use the remote is only a part of the problems I have since I had a tivo which is considerably easier to use and much more user...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    Yes that is how i want to do it, watching wise. And I did go and change it to default toTV 1, but it seems it is still going to TV 2 sometimes. I'll experiment when I can and get back to you. I'm having a problem with the remote vision wise so it'll have to wait.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I'll give that a try but how will that solve the problem of where things record? This recording on the "wrong" tv is a problem from 7-10 pm and then during the day. I'd like to be able to manually tell it where I want it to record, but apparently I can't do that.

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    @thekrell. I use TV 2 in my bedroom. I want to be able to watch TV live in there at night from 7-10 but it is scheduling programs to record there even though there is no conflict. I have to go delete them and then reschedule them so it goes to TV 1. When the tech left he had it set...

    How can I tell it what tv to record on? Why won't it record a show even when there is no conflict?

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I have a very hard time reading because of a neuro issues, which is why I'm here. I know what i want it to do, but it's to unwieldy to let me figure out how to do it. Who can help me? I set it to record something, it won't do it, or it puts it on the wrong TV so I have to cancel, then search...

    Can i still record on TV 2 and watch on TV 1 if I have a Tivo connected to TV 1?

    I'm totally confused. I can't get things to record when I want to where I want them to record. I have to manually go through things to record which Is why i'm frustrated and why I want to use my tivo. I don't know who DIRT is or how to find them. I'm exhausted and frustrated and confused.
