Basic MRV configuration question

Sorry for the basic question; have looked but couldn't find an answer...

Is it possible to enable transfers on a TiVo but control which other TiVo's on the network it can see or can be seen by it?

Specifically I have two TiVo's and I'd like to enable them both for TTCB to transfer programs to either TiVo from my PC (and probably also TTG) but not allow one of the TiVo's to see the other (or not allow either TiVo to see the other would be ok too).

Possible or not?

I don't think you can prevent the TiVos from seeing each other (short of disabling transfers altogether on that box via your account on TiVo Central Online). You can prevent them from seeing your PC by going into the Access Control tab of the TiVo Server Properties in TiVo Desktop.

One workaround would be to enable parental controls. That would prevent (I think) transfer of rated content outside of the specified limits, but I don't think it would prevent someone from seeing the recordings on the other box (which it sounds like you are trying to achieve).

OK, thanks, that pretty much agrees with what I've been able to figure out as well.
