I intend using this Tivax unit with the same TiVo Series 2 DVR. During setup of the Tivax unit with the TiVo I immediately encountered a problem. The TiVo unit could not control the Tivax unit using the IR Blaster which is the way the TiVo unit had previously been controlling the Channel Master converter. To be fair, the TiVo web site list the Tivax STV-T9 as being compatible with TiVo DVR's. The Tivac STB-T12 is not even mentioned on the TiVo web site. My guess is that Tivax has changed the IR control code from that of the T9 unit and either hasn't told TiVo or TiVo has ignored the changes and the upgrades of the T12. This also seems to be verified by a bit of experimenting that led me to discover that the TiVo Series 2 DVR can control the Tivax STB-T12 if during set up of the TiVo box you select APEX as the brand of Digital TV converter Box used. It seems the Tivax STB-T12 fully responds to the TiVo series 2 using the IR blaster when the TiVo DVR thinks it is talking to an APEX converter. At least, my TiVo TCD540080 controls and changes the channels on the Tivax STD-T12 properly. Otherwise, theTiVAX unit seems to be more sensitive that either my Channel Master or RCA Digital TV Converters. During scan it found and properly displayed Digital TV stations neither the Channel Master nor RCA can receive.
