DVR Everywhere For TiVo Users
Orb Networks has announced DVR Everywhere which allows users of TiVo Series 2 DVRs to play and program their television recordings for
free anywhere in the world from networked devices like PCs, WiFi-enabled laptops around the home, and mobile phones on any carrier network.
"A lot of times, my TiVo DVR records my favorite TV shows while I'm at the office or flying to another country," said Ian McCarthy, Vice President of Product Marketing at Orb Networks. "Now I have options for enjoying them whenever I want. I can play them at work, stream them to my Nokia phone on Cingular here in the US, or remotely initiate a TiVoToGo transfer to my laptop's TiVo Desktop to watch them on the flight back from Japan."
No special software or fees are needed to use DVR Everywhere from mobile phones or PDAs. Users are able to play and program their television recordings right from their devices' native Web browsers and streaming Windows Media Players, RealPlayers, or 3GP players.
