Tivo HD

Tivo HD does not let you used a standard cable box, even if you don’t want to get HD content.

Tivo HD needs cable cards to work.  Cablevision won’t send me the cable cards without scheduling a home visit so for about 2 weeks I had my Tivo HD but no way to use it.  I was planning and using my standard cable box as the input to the Tivo until I could schedule a visit from cablevision but the Tivo would only accept an digital antenna input.
