Recording capacity

Different models of TiVo DVRs can save different numbers of recordings at one time. When you’re finished watching a show, you can delete it to make room for a new show. If the DVR runs out of empty space to record a new show you have requested, it will delete the show that has been saved the longest. If there are shows you don't want your TiVo DVR to delete when it needs space, you can easily mark them "Keep Until I Delete".
