Friends finale and NBC Tivo-b0rking --
TiVo Strikes Back


Friends finale and NBC Tivo-b0rking --
TiVo Strikes Back
05/07/2004 10:49 AM
Following up on yesterday's post about NBC's apparent attempts to b0rk potential TiVoers of the Friends finale, BoingBoing reader Douglas Clark says,
I am a loyal Tivo user and Tivo did send out a message alert to users about the Friends episode. It was more along the lines of "if you manually extend the time of a recording, you may miss the beginning of the friends final episode." I find that Tivo is pretty good about catching unusual start times and other wonky tricks the networks play. The previous comment about HUT and ratings was right on the money...
Link to previous BoingBoing post.

Tech maven Meg Hourihan adds, "Even weirder is that I got a message on my Tivo warning me that the finale of Friends would have abnormal times. The message warned that if I wasn't just using the automatic "start on time" and "end on time" settings (i.e. I manually set the start time as 8 PM) that I might miss some. What makes things weirder and worse is that Tivo still didn't record the whole show! I made sure my settings were what the message instructed, and happened to watch the show live. Tivo kicked in to record at 8:59 PM (which is what it listed the start time as) but stopped at 9:59! According to the time on my digital cable box, the program didn't end until 10:03 PM. So if I hadn't watched it live, I would have missed the last four minutes. Seems like a major screw-up on Tivo's part, especially after sending out that message!"

Intel and Tivo Team Up on Tivo-to-Go
(But How?)


Intel and Tivo Team Up on Tivo-to-Go
(But How?)
06/06/2005 12:09 AM

Reuters is running a story about Intel that is chocked full of goo info, including information that their 'Manitoba' mobile chipset has finally found a customer in mmO2 Pic (the Manitoba came out two years ago, to little fanfare, let alone actual adoption by phone manufacturers). But the big news is that Intel will be working with Tivo to provide Tivo-to-Go functionality in future laptop chipsets, like their popular Centrino.

What that is, though, is unclear. Is it just a branding initiative? Tivo-to-Go already works on laptops (that's half the point), so will it be some sort of native support that makes it easier to move the Tivo content around? We don't know—the article is very vague—but at least Tivo is getting some name dropping love from a mega-vendor (considering it was unlikely they were going to get much help from Microsoft, considering they sell a competing product to Windows XP Media Center). (Thanks, Pat!)

Mossberg: Clones give iPod 'a run for
its money'
10/29/2003 10:20 AM
After two years of market dominance, Apple's iPod is finally getting "a run for its money," according to Wall Street Journal columnist Wall Mossberg. Mossberg's latest Personal Tech column, entitled Attack of the iPod Clones, discusses the burgeoning threat of Apple's MP3 player market competitors. Though mainly of interest to Windows users -- as two of the devices Mossberg mentions are, for now, for Windows only -- it's worth comparing how Apple's own offering shores up against some big names in the high-capacity MP3 player space.

MP3 Request: "Tivo, My Tivo"


MP3 Request: "Tivo, My Tivo" 06/08/2004 09:07 AM

Does anyone have an MP3 of the song "Tivo, My Tivo" from the off-Broadway [hit | miss] The Gayest Straight Man Alive? Because I'd really like to hear it. Also, could someone explain what "surprisingly straight" means? Is that, like, no dicks at all? Not even your own? (Thanks, Peter, for the "tip.")
Read [NYTheatre]

Update: While I'm exploiting the good humor of our readers, do any of you 1) live in Canberra, Australia, and 2) take PayPal? I need to get a few cases of VB delivered to some game developers and am having a surprisingly hard time of it.
