as cox is shutting off its analog cable with which our old big analog tv and old analog series 2 tivo have done so well, having no cable card slot on the tivo, we'd be forced into a sub-par cox dvr. tried all sorts of settings to get tivo's ir blaster cable to turn channels in cox cisco minibox, as well as an insignia converter box (for ota recording). no luck.
anyone w/ cordcutting hints?
We have two older model TiVos and during setup there is an option for "antenna only" which works really well in most areas. Does your TiVo setup procedure have that option?"
i have that tivo option, but like i said in another thread, my tivo has 1 tuner only, and it is analog. in guided searuo, you are supposed to set tivo to change the digital channels of the DTA (new cable boxes now called mini box). tivo traditionally did this via ir blaster cables placed in front of box's remote control "eye". but now, neither tivo or cox will supply the ir code # needed for tivo setup software to control the digital DTA tuner. this conspiracy wreaks bad, and is THE cause of my cordcutting urge.
