I don't believe that a Tivo is supposed to be connected to a cable box.

I thought Tivo was the original alternative to a cable-box.
Found it - The TiVo EDGE for Cable, TiVo BOLT+, TiVo BOLT VOX 1TB v2 DVRs and TiVo Roamio Pro/Plus DVRs are intended for use with digital cable systems only and do not work with external cable boxes, analog cable, or over-the-air antennas.
Translation: cable-TV subscription, yes...cable-box, no.
I wouldn't use a tivo, they require a cable card and there are MANY people with issues using devices with cable cards.

The series 2 was the only box that used a external cable box all newer TiVo’s use cable cards and possibly Tuning adapters

Channel 63 is tiling and audio is not working well. It’s been this way for about 24 hours now.
