What's wrong with Sky+, oh that's a UK thing and the reason TiVo's
haven't really took off over here.

I'm telling you this Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB is the schnizzle, half the
price of TiVo to buy and they have a free service to record your shows
for
whatever cable system you have.  A PC can be easily networked so if you
had
a few PC's with a couple of these devices it would save you hundreds of
dollars on the TiVo service. The service that has the guides is free and
is
called Titan TV. It will even schedule your device to record.

TiVo still rocks though...and I have 2 of them...not 1 and with the
Hauppauge that makes 3 PVR's I have I guess.

I'm putting this back onlist, since about ten people sent me a message
saying "How do you do that!?!"

Sorry for the off-topic, but the moderator owns a tivo, so it's cool,
right?
;-)

1. Hack your XBox
  - Either flash the onboard TSOP chip, or add a secondary TSOP chip
2. Install a TurboNet card in your Tivo
3. Network
4. Install the Xbox Media Player on your XBox.

So it's not an "out of the box" solution...

But if you want help sourcing the stuff to get it done, in particular,
the
build of XBMP that supports .ty extraction, let me know...
