Parental Controls and KidZone features
To protect children, Nero LiquidTV™ offers a KidZone and a detailed Parental Control feature which allow only shows and channels which are approved by a parent to be available for children to watch.
Adjust your settings to display just the shows you pre-approved for your kids every time the television is on – both live and recorded TV. When enabled, KidZone keeps the parents’ Now Playing List separate from the one for the kids. Just enter your child’s age, and appropriate rating and channel limits are automatically set for you. You can also override the rating information and decide which programs to allow/hide in KidZone. Just lock/unlock it with a password.
To set up Parental Controls & KidZone, go to TiVo Central®

Press select to set the age range
After setting the age range you can select the user (for the set up user accounts on your computer) who will automatically start up in KidZone when launching Nero LiquidTV™.
Suggestions
Your TiVo® remote control has two special buttons: a green THUMBS UP and a red THUMBS DOWN button. Use them to give any program, live or recorded, your personal rating. Nero LiquidTV™ uses your THUMBS ratings to suggest other programs you might like – these are TiVo® Suggestions.
Over time, the more you use the THUMBS buttons, the better Nero LiquidTV™ will be at finding programs you like.
Nero LiquidTV™ may automatically record TiVo® Suggestions if hard drive space is available. But these recordings will never replace shows you request or prevent them from being recorded.
