In Reply to: TiVo - how does it work with cable boxes? posted by Larry S on January 11, 2004 at 09:13:51:

ir cable (emulating a remote control) or a serial cable (if the cable box can be controlled that way). You simply tell it which model you have and it knows the control codes. You only have to tell it what you want, TiVo changes the channel and records what you asked for.
Good Luck...

So it turns the cable box on/off, and changes the channels.
Cool. Thanks for the info.
