Control Your TiVo From Your iPhone With TiVoRemote
2008-05-09 23:34:00 A user by the name of Duckfin at the TiVo Community Forum has created a native application that turns your iPhone into a TiVo remote. The app, named TiVoRemote, utilizes the TiVo's Telnet control feature to give you complete control of your TiVo right from your iPhone.
Control TiVo with Your iPhone via Telnet

TELNET “HACK†ALLOWS FOR NETWORK REMOTE CONTROL OF TIVO
2008-05-02 00:24:00 Filed under: Home Entertainment It may not be very practical just yet but, as Zatz Not Funny's Dave Zatz points out, this recently discovered telnet "hack" for network remote control of a TiVo certainly offers no shortage of potential. Apparently, this one arose out of TiVo's deal with Creston to allow for integration with their home automation framework which, fortunately for those that like to dabble in such things, simply involved having TiVo HD and Series3 units listen to port 31339 for connections from a Crestron device. As Zatz notes, however, there's nothing to stop any device from telnetting to the TiVo's easily-findable IP address using the aforementioned port and inputting IR codes command line-style. Currently, that's made even less practical by the fact the codes need to be entered quickly to avoid being timed out, but we're sure it's only a matter of time before folks devise some slightly more useful means of exploiting this interesting find. Until then, you can ...

TiVo Predicts Tonight’s AMERICAN IDOL Loser
2008-04-10 15:45:00 Over the past four weeks, TiVo has been using its second-by-second audience measurement to determine which AMERICAN IDOL performers had the highest and lowest viewership. It turns out, this information, especially among viewers who are watching on a time shifted basis, is highly predictive of which contestant will be voted off. Viewers tend to rewind and watch their favorite performances multiple times, while fast-forwarding through the ones they don’t like. Not surprisingly, these viewing preferences correlate with voting patterns (for each week TiVo has measured). And as a result, TiVo is predicting that Syesha Mercado will be sent packing tonight. Now, this TV Addict is all for TiVo using its second-by-second audience measurement to determine harmless things like who may-or-may not win AMERICAN IDOL. But imagine what would happen [in this purely hypothetical situation] should YOUR viewing habits fall into the wrong hands! (more…)

Comcast offering TiVo recorder in Boston
2008-01-24 03:46:00 Comcast began offering a digital video recorder with TiVo's programming services in the Boston area. The partnership reflects a new strategy for TiVo, which is facing competition from satellite and cable-TV providers in the digital video recorder, or DVR, market. San Jose-based TiVo is trying to "divorce" itself from hardware by developing software for other set-top boxes, Chief Executive Officer Thomas Rogers said earlier this month at a Citigroup investor conference in Phoenix. The software for Comcast includes a new function to search cable-TV and On Demand listings, said Jeff Klugman, head of TiVo's service provider division. The new software won't have broadband features that exist in TiVo's retail products, Klugman said. Those features allow users to stream Rhapsody music and download movies directly from Amazon.com.

Apple rents movies - and crickets chirp
2008-01-17 21:01:00 Apple recently announced that they’d be renting movies via their iTunes service. As a result, I’ve started seeing analysts saying that this was going to make Apple even more dominant than they already are. After all, people are going to want to watch their iTunes-rented movies via their iPods, their Macs, and even on their iPhones, dontchaknow. So the analysts are saying that the iTunes movie rental experience will usher in a paradigm shift from DVDs to streaming. If you’ve been an observer of the streaming video market over the last few years, you’ll have seen several false starts. Most of the early companies into this market failed for one simple reason - there wasn’t enough bandwidth to enough homes to justify the business model. This has changed dramatically in recent years with the mass adoption of broadband internet connections via cable modems and DSL. But the first power company out of the blocks, Amazon.com, has gone precisely nowhere wit...
