Tivo Quadcard Promises Thousand-Hour PVR

edrock200 writes "The folks over at 9thtee are developing a quad card for Tivo series 1 and Tivo/DirecTV combo units...it will allow you to add 4 hard drives to your Tivo and also break the 133gb limit for each drive....this will effectively give you a 1200-hour unit with 4 320GB drives. Theres also a fairly detailed thread of the development process over at the AVS forums." Gonna need the space since scifi has decided to air 4 episodes of SG1 a day!

    Whoo! Now I can sit here and lose my job, so I can't afford the subscription for my TiVO, so I can't record any more TV!

  2. Sci-Fi airing four SG-1s a _week_ by Burdell · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Sci-Fi channel is going to be showing four episodes of "Stargate SG-1" a
    week, not a day. Now, they are going to show them back-to-back on
    Monday night through prime-time and then strip them after prime-time
    Monday through Thursday, but that is still only four a week (not
    counting season five airing on Friday, but that's only one more
    episode).

    They're also going to show "X-Files" at eight episodes a week: four on
    Tuesday and four on Wednesday. I wonder how long this schedule will
    last (I can't imagine that one show will really pull the ratings in when
    you run it that much).

    They cancelled Farscape. After the last ep of Farscape, I won't watch that lousy network again! That goes for Spewburg's latest, too. -DNA

  5. Offtopic- about Conan by DonkeyJimmy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    You've been warned, if you're here to mod offtopic, have some heart man.

    I took a year long break from conan myself. He's always funny, but his jokes are identical (he's done that new Quarter graphics joke at least 5 times). He gets old, but a long break can make him very funny again.

    I just threw him on the other day and enjoyed him a lot. He's exactly as he always was... I'd flip him on again if I were you. A couple nights ago he did a bit on Triumph the Comic dog at the VMA (video music awards). It was pretty good, and I'm not really a fan of Triumph.

    I never watch the interview unless they're with someone outstanding... without them, it's only a 15 minute commitment, and that's worth the effort.

    WARNING: NEW BAND LEADER, and he's not very good. At least, there was a new band leader on a couple nights ago and he wasn't very good them.
