No Tivo Hacks
Leo Laporte (of The Screen Savers) loves to hack his Tivo. They’ve done a number of bits on the show about this, showing you how to do things with your Tivo. There’s a problem, though. Leo has a Series 1 Tivo. We have a Series 2 Tivo. So we never get to learn how to hack our Tivo. This same problem apparently carries over to the internet, too, because there are lots of hacks for the Series 1 Tivo, but basically nothing for the Series 2 Tivo. It’s really annoying. We would really like to be able to 1) use the internet to download the program information instead of the phoneline and 2) backup the shows we record to the computer. Since there’s no hacks, we can’t do it. And we’re certainly not going to try and do the hacking ourselves because we’d probably just break the Tivo, and that would be bad.
