Does it work with my setup?
TiVo Premiere works with your cable service or with a digital antenna. It does not work with satellite, but stay tuned for a new HD DIRECTV DVR featuring TiVo service, expected to launch in the future.
How does it save me money?
TiVo Premiere is $99.00, plus TiVo service-$19.99/month. The cost of a Premiere box with Product Lifetime service over 5 years averages to just $11.65 per month* — often less than the monthly rental fees you'd pay for an inferior cable company DVR.
How does it work? 
TiVo Premiere connects to your existing cable service and replaces your old cable box with a stunning HD DVR experience. A CableCARD you get from your cable company plugs into the back of your Premiere and delivers your cable channels. Premiere does the rest, delivering on-demand movies, web videos, music and more through your broadband Internet connection.
CableCard™ FAQ
TiVo® Premiere will support analog cable out of the box. A single M-CardTM (multi-stream CableCARD) adds dual-tuner recording of digital and HD cable channels.
Types of CableCARDs: Multi-Stream and Single-Stream
TiVo Premiere houses one CableCARD slot for an M-Card located on the back of the DVR. In your upcoming installations, you may come across prior versions of TiVo DVRs. These came with two slots (hidden behind a door on the lower front of the DVR) for CableCARDs — the TiVo HD and HD XL could function with either one M-Card™ or two single-stream CableCARDs (S-Cards), while the Series3™ could only function with two single-stream CableCARDs. All major cable companies are mandated by federal law to provide the correct type of CableCARD decoders to cable subscribers upon request.
Is a CableCARD Really Needed?
If your client does not subscribe to expanded digital cable service, a CableCARD may not be required at all. TiVo Premiere DVRs work with any analog cable (i.e. basic or expanded basic) source right out of the box and, of course, with ATSC antennas (for standard and high definition over-the-air signals). However, in order to receive certain HD and digital channels from the cable provider, a CableCARD is required.
How Do I Get and Install a CableCARD?
Your customer will need to request a CableCARD from their cable company. Most will not issue or release the card without the customer's personal authorization, and some cable companies actually require that one of their technicians come to the home and install the card. However, many cable companies will simply hand over the card for customer installation. Remind the customer that they can actually return the old cable box or DVR and that the CableCARD rental fee, which ranges from free to $11/month, is less expensive than the embedded cable box rental fee they are currently paying.
Activating the card:
With the TV on and the cable input connected to the TiVo box, insert the CableCARD into the CableCARD slot (with TiVo Premiere, it's on the back of the box).
When the decoder information screen appears, select "configure CableCARD" and then "CableCARD menu".
Call the cable company (if you haven't already) for card initialization — you'll need to provide them with the appropriate numbers from the configuration screen. Be sure to inform the cable company operator that you're activating a TiVo DVR.
Looking for a simple way to get your video output to multiple displays for your installation?
TiVo has you covered by making all three video outputs – HDMI, component, and composite, simultaneously “hot”.
This means you can feed one TiVo box to up to three different displays without the need for splitters – and if you DO use splitters, the TiVo box carries support for up to 16 HDMI licenses.
Enjoy all of your TiVo content via any video output type simultaneously.
