I am new to Comcast but not new to TIVO. There are different types of TIVO receivers. The older TIVO boxes used a cable box and a infra-red (IR) transmitter to control the cable box. These do not accept a CableCard.
The newer TIVO boxes have CableCard slots and I self installed one last week.
The card that I got from Comcast allows me to record 2 channels at the same time in my TIVO HD with only one card. The install required only one phone call to the CableCard setup number.
