Tivo Announces Dual Tuner Upgrade

ethaz writes "Tivo has announced dual tuner support in version 2.5 of it's software for DirecTV-capable Tivos (DTivos). So much for Ultimate TV's advantage." Too bad it's only DIRECTV TiVos - with the larger hard drive, better output, my TiVo pales in comparasion.

      but you need to do a s/ perl replacement, otherwise you aren't elite!

  2. LOL, I've been pirating DirecTV for about 6 months by Archfeld · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    now, does this mean I can pirate TIVO service as well. I really LOVE those Canadian satelite hackers. For under 100$ I have all the DirecTV I can handle, and HU card in a reader/writer atached to a pc to do the decoding and protect my fragile card from a BURN signal. By my calculations it is traffic in the FREE airwaves and MINE for the taking :)

  3. Cox digital cable... by kiwipeso · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I have a Cox cable, and when I got the girlfriend service, she showed me how to "boot-up" the box.
    She clearly detailed several bits of information on rubber adaptors?
    AFAIK, there isn't any cum in the box, but the box is essentially a small cumputer with custom MAN compatible hardware. It is 53x based, though (don't care to try to crack the case - many times they put traps in the boxes to kill the service/box/both if you try to open them, from what I understand).

    The crap thing is it will probably be wrapped in so many pre-nups, Dildo crap, etc - that it will suck as a real useful service..
