There are many different types of devices that can be used when watching TV. Some just change channels, while others provide recording options and additional features. When creating a Watch TV Activity, choose the option that best suits your setup.
The following Watch TV activity types are available in the Harmony remote software:
- Watch TV (Digital cable, Basic cable, Antenna)
- Watch TV (DVR or PVR other than TiVo)
- Watch TV (TiVo)
- Watch TV (Replay TV)
- Watch TV (Media Center PC)
