PC To Tivo aka TivoBack

Posted by: Juan Lopez-Valcarcel In: Movies & TV

OK, I promise this is the last TiVo post for a while, but I finally found out how to watch videos from your computer hard drive on your TiVo.

The full details are here, and the concept is a reverse version of the TiVoToGo system.

You will need to have the TiVo Desktop installed on your computer and a TiVo Series 2. Then just save any MPEG 2 file under the “My Documents/ My TiVo Recordings” folder and you will can then play the file from the TV using TiVo.

If you are looking for legal online content to fill up your TiVo, the Internet Movie Archive is a great place to start.

Why TiVo doesn’t advertise this cool feature of living room convergence continues to baffle me…
