		<description><![CDATA[This article is reprinted from TiVo&#8217;s knowledge base article published here . Two CableCARDs (either S-Cards or M-Cards) must be installed in the Series3 HD DVR and activated by your cable provider before you can view and record two digital cable programs at once (including high definition cable programs).

Currently, switched digital channels are unavailable to TiVo DVRs that use CableCARDs.

		<description><![CDATA[Some cable operators are deploying M-Cards™ (multi-stream CableCARDs) into the field. An M-Card is a CableCARD that is capable of running in either single-stream mode (supports one tuner) or multi-stream mode (single card can support multiple tuners).

		<description><![CDATA[During installation, if the configuration screen does not come up within 5 minutes after a CableCARD is inserted in the DVR, the card is probably undergoing a firmware update. Firmware is software that is stored in the CableCARD&#8217;s hardware. Some CableCARDs will display a message, but other CableCARDs will simply appear to &#8220;hang&#8221; when a firmware update [...]]]></description>

The DIRECTV/TiVo units are equipped with technology that allows the TiVo to record those compressed digital signals directly to the TiVo&#8217;s hard drive. Therefore, when the signal is recorded and then played back through the TiVo, there is no quality loss. Thus, the DIRECTV/TiVo units record in only [...]]]></description>
