Will my TIVO work with the new Digital Cable?

Zora Mazzie: I have a Series2 Tivo and it works as it should with digital cable. Look on the back of you Tivo box and see if there are plugs for a Serial Cable or IR Cable. If there is either of these, your Tivo will work just fine with the newer digital cable box. If not, refer to your users manual and I'm sure it'll tell you if it will work.

Ron Keliipio: It will depend on what Tivo model you have. If it is a Tivo Series 2 DT which is for Dual Tuner then it will work with Digital Cable except as I will explain below.If it si a Series 1 or Series 2 with a Single Tuner it will not work with digital cable. With the Tivo Series 2 DT (Dual Tuner) you can either record 1 digital channel and 1 analog channel at the same time, or you can record 2 analog channels at the same time, it will not record two digital channels at the same time. ONLY DirecTV Tivo's were made with Dual Tuners that are STRICTLY for ALL Digital recording. Check out this link from Tivo to better expla! in the Tivo's as I listed above:http://dynamic.tivo.com/2.0.boxes.step.1.aspI hope it works out for you. If you have any further questions please feel free to send me an email. If you want to search for these kind of Tivo issues then check out this site: http://www.dvrplayground.com...Show more

Erin Arron: (Thanks Todd) I got the unit used and do not have a manual, but I do know it has the mini-jack (1/8" standard Serial) on the back as I am using it to run a replacement Modem. I am thinking this is what you meant about a Serial Port on the back.
