Is it possible to wirelessly connect a tv to a TiVo box?

Just to clarify - do you mean TiVo or is it a V6? What are you wanting the wifi connection to do?

If you mean to broadcast the TV signal instead of using the HDMI cable, see this...

I think this is exactly what I was hoping for. So for clarity I can put a HDMI transmitter in either the V6 or TiVo box and receiver in the TV?  Also, can the transmitters serve more than 1 tv?  Do you have one you can recommend?

sorry I’m a novice at this

I personally have never done it and from what I read on the link tells me its expensive and can be temperamental - so unlikely ever to try it. Someone who has may comment soon, meanwhile do a bit of deeper research 🙂

The problem you have with putting anything between the TV box & the TV with HDMI is the content protection. The encryption has to recognise each piece of kit it connects too as being not capable of copying the content. For HD content the connection must be HDCP 1.4 compliant & 2.2 for UHD. TV boxes can be very fussy & some kit will work & some won't. Its a case of trial & error. & make sure you can return any kit if it proves not to work.
