Categories: TiVo HD & Series 3 TiVo Home Media & TiVoToGo
Originally, Series 3 and HD TiVos shipped without two key components... TiVoToGo and Multi-Room Viewing (MRV). This November, the latest in TiVo's line will get them back. Check out this (lengthy) thread on the TiVo Community.
In the thread, Bob Pony (TiVo representative) makes the following statement...
I know you've been anxiously awaiting TiVoToGo and Multi-Room Viewing on your Series3 and TiVoHD boxes.
I wanted to let you know that development has been progressing smoothly, and all is well. You can expect TTG & MRV to be available for Series3 and TiVoHD this November.
These features will provide support for video transfers between Series3 & Series2 systems and between a Series3/Series2 system and a PC. High Definition content will not be supported for transfer or playback on a Series2 system (Series2's just can't play HD), and copy-protected High Def or Standard Def content cannot be transferred (same as our current Series2 products).
Excellent. This sounds like this was as much as Tivo was going to be able to do given the licensing constraints and technical limitations.
I remember when they decided to get a license from Macrovision - they said they had to do that in order to make future features work Its good to see things progressing.
Do you expect that this feature will be translated to a 10-250 hd dtivo combo box platform?
Now three Sammys (2 S4120R & 1 S4080R) upgraded with a little help from our friends at PTVupgrade, then Superpatched for MRV & HMO.
Remember: Search is your friend.
Don't forget to watch a little television now and then guys!
I suspect it is very unlikely that MRV will be enabled on the HR10-250.
From what I have read, the code that allowed MRV to be enabled by hacking the box is no longer there in 6.3e.
My S3 seemed to receive it's Media Access Key last night.
I am currently downloading a show to my laptop using TTG.
TivoToGo does work on the S3.
I did download a show from my S3 to my PC and was able to view it, but it takes forever to complete the transfer.
In my case, part of my network is wireless, so you may get better results if your network is hard wired.
