Our new TiVo update is just around the corner…

on 12-10-2011 20:59

This week we have begun a limited pilot of our next TiVo software release. This new software includes many new improvements as well as key developments that will enable the launch of future products. We’ll be rolling it out to everyone well before Christmas. Here’s a sneak peek of what you can expect:


Spotify Support: We’ll support Spotify’s high quality streaming format, which will enable the Spotify Premium App on the TiVo platform.


Red Button: This update adds extra functionality necessary to support Red Button services developed by our channel partners, such as BBC, ITV, and Sky Sports


TiVo App support: We've enabled the connection of your TiVo box to iOS devices through your wireless router to use our fantastic TiVo app, which allows you to control the TiVo box, browse, search and manage recordings all from your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.


A new look for YouTube: We’ll support Google’s completely revamped YouTube app, which allows for a more relaxed viewing and browsing experience, and supports HD video!


Full BBC iPlayer integration: We’ve changed the way Catch-up TV through BBC iPlayer works. Every BBC iPlayer programme will now be available through Search & Browse, including much more HD content, and you’ll never use up a tuner for BBC iPlayer viewing.


Express Series Links: Create a Series Link with default settings at the click of a button.


Multi-tap text entry: Use the number keys on your remote like a mobile phone for text entry for typing into search.


Automatic Padding: We’ve had tremendous feedback from customers about clipped recordings, so we’ve installed a default level of padding for all recordings.


Improved Parental Controls: We’ve made some changes with PIN entry requirements to suit every household. In the new update, PIN challenges on pre-watershed playback of programmes in My Shows become optional. We’ve also added the ability to require PIN to access any application.


Skippable Music Playlists: Playlists on Music on Demand will be skippable by track


Live Pay-per-view Events: Live pay-per-view events become bookable with your remote control.


HD Upscaling: As promised on this forum, we’ve addressed the issue with our picture quality and this new update features better standard definition picture quality with improved upscaling.


Connection reliability: HDMI and SCART compatibility improved.


Info and Stop button functionality improved: You’ll be able to use the ‘info’ button in the TV programme guide and the mini guide, while the Stop button now works as you would expect.


Video Preview for every channel: Every channel will keep playing in the TV Guide window, including all the Sky channels.


There are plenty more updates already in the pipeline and, as ever, we will use your feedback to continue to improve our TiVo service.



We’ll be keeping you up to date on this forum.



Thanks,

Simon Hunt

Good news. The picture quality issue and lack of Red Button are the two main things that have stopped me upgrading to TiVo. Will follow the reactions of the userbase with interest and maybe get something in place by Christmas.

They haven't made it very clear what they mean with this, are they adding wireless support to the Tivo (through a dongle?) or do they just mean your iPad will connect to your wireless router to control the device, which I assume you will have to connect to the router using Ethernet.
