hi i'm a tivo junkie.. have 4 networked Tivo hd's .. all have cable cards. I get all my channels beautifully BUT I can't figure out how to get the pay for view on them.. I don't want a cable box just for that! Yes I went to channel set up and included channel #1. Any help please.. using Seattle/Tacoma Comcast. THANKS

You can not get pay for view with Tivo because Tivo is only one way the can not communicate with the head end.
You might be able to call and request the the pay for view that way but not by using your Tivo remote.

If the PPV channels are statically mapped, you can, in theory order the PPV events by phone or the web, if the provider allows that. If they don't, you need a box for PPV.
