Viewing feature is intended solely to enable the transfer of content
among DVRs within a single household. You may transfer content
only among DVRs on the same TiVo account and only among DVRs
on the same network subnet. For example, if one DVR in your home
resides on your network at 192.168.1.5, any DVR used for Multi-
Room Viewing must reside on that same network, having an IP
address of 192.168.1.x. Any DVR that resides on a different network,
such as a DVR with an IP address of 192.168.2.5, is not permitted to
participate in Multi-Room Viewing.
In addition, you may only transfer content among ten (10) DVRs on a
single TiVo account within your household. Unauthorized transfers
or distribution of copyrighted works outside of your home may
constitute an infringement of the rights of copyright holders. TiVo
reserves the right to terminate the TiVo Plus service accounts of users
who transfer or distribute content in violation of this Agreement –
either to an unauthorized device or otherwise.
Please note that when you subscribe to the TiVo Plus service, the
Multi-Room Viewing feature is turned on by default. You may turn
this feature off by using Manage My Account at www.tivo.com/

3.3 Access to PC-based Media.
TiVo is enabled through the TiVo Desktop application that is
available at www.tivo.com/desktop.
The TiVo Desktop application itself does not contain any security
mechanisms. If your home network has Internet access but does not
include a firewall, information on your home network can be easily
seen by anyone on the Internet. Most firewall products stop all traffic
originating from the Internet, protecting your systems from malicious
network attacks or curious browsers interested in the files you have
on your computer. A firewall can be installed to protect an individual

Access to PC-based media via your
computer or to protect a whole home network. Because the TiVo
Desktop application makes media you publish to your DVR available
on your home network, TiVo recommends that you install a firewall
that protects your home network. If your network does not include a
firewall, Internet users may be able to access media on your network
or even information on your computer, such as personal financial
data. TiVo strongly suggests you take steps to protect your home
network from unwanted intruders. Routers and home gateways,
available at most electronics stores, may include a firewall meant to
protect your home network.
Some third-party PC-based applications may also enable access to
PC-based media through your TiVo. Such applications may or may
not include built-in security mechanisms. TiVo is not responsible for
and does not warrant the use, behavior, or performance of such
applications.
Network-enabled features are intended solely to enable you to access
media that resides on your home computer for personal,
noncommercial use. The feature is not intended to be used for
listening to or viewing music, photographs, video, or other media
from third party sources including, but not limited to, Internet
streaming, webcasting, peer-to-peer or any other form of transmission
of content. Viewing or listening to media from third party sources
could subject your DVR and/or home computer to harm and may
infringe the copyrights of third parties.
