If you follow my Twitter feed you probably already know that I recently started to revisit the CCI byte issue that has frustrated me for quite a while now. Thanks to Time Warner’s draconian settings, Multi-Room viewing and TiVoToGo has become essentially useless within my household. Like Dave Zatz, I am completely irritated with the [...]

All too often I hear people say that TiVo’s monthly subscription fee cost too much and that a Cable Company DVR is a much better deal. Being the geek that I am, I decided to call my local Time Warner Cable in order to figure out whether or not a cable company DVR is [...] According to Bloomberg, TiVo has been talking with Time Warner Cable about bringing their DVR service to Time Warner’s network. Not a lot of details have been revealed however, this news makes a lot of sense considering the fact that TiVo recently won their long standing patent battle with EchoStar. As the Bloomberg article points [...] Update 01/14 @ 8:32PM: This is great! I now have the SDV adapter up and running. Thanks to the adapter, I can now tune ~10 more HD channels! In case you can’t tell, I’m extremely excited. I’ve been waiting for this adapter for a long time so, I’m glad to see it finally come to [...] A fellow Central New Yorker by the name of Brian recently contacted me to let me know that our local Time Warner now has a page available which allows you to request a FREE SDV adapter.

Along with this information, the letter also mentions that SDV tuning adapters will be made [...] The WeaKnees blog has alerted me to a new page on Time Warner’s website which is supposed to provide information on how to obtain a SDV tuning adapter. Although some people have been successful in obtaining information from this page, my zip code (13413) simply forwards me to my local Time Warner’s website without any [...] For quite a while now, SDV has prevented me from enjoying all of the HD channels that my cable provider has to offer. The last time I counted I was unable to tune something like eight HD channels on my Series 3 and TiVo HD thanks to SDV and Time Warner. Back in July we heard [...] Update 07/30 @ 10:52PM: Ben Drawbaugh has posted a wonderful SDV FAQ over at TiVoCommunity.com. In a post last week I alluded to some disturbing information that a Time Warner installer told me. According to the installer, TWC has plans to move ALL digital content in my area over to switched digital by the [...] On June 12th I blogged about how my Series 3 TiVo was making a lot of noise and how it had me worried. Well, after receiving several great comments, I decided to call TiVo in order to see if I could get a replacement. Getting a replacement S3 was surprisingly easy. The [...] |
