TiVo Now on PSP
Note From Auri: Prior to purchasing TiVo Plus, make sure you read the "Known Issues" of the software. For example, it apparently will prevent Windows Mobile Media Centers from working with your PC after installation. It also warns against illegally distributing shows and informs you it signs each movie with a signature that can be traced back to your copy of TiVo Plus. You can still get the TiVo-To-Go software as part of the free TiVo Desktop for Windows (sorry, Mac users, TiVo hasn't shown you any love lately)... then you can convert the video using PSPVideo9. Note that TiVo Desktop requires that you have a "compatible" MPEG-2 decoder on your system. This is a silly requirement because what they really mean is you have to buy nVidia's codec just to play the audio part of any video you download... nVidia has a 30-day trial version on their site though...
TiVo announced a very special update for owners and subscribers. This desktop update is so special it's going to cost you $25. What's so special about it? Well, the upgrade to version 2.3 allows users to convert shows on their TiVo directly into iPod, PSP, and Treo formats without the need for a third-party (and free) program such as Videora.
This update also features "TiVoToGo" which schedules transfers from your TiVo to a PC, so last night's Deadwood episode will be ready to accompany you on your commute in the morning.
