Although HDTV<\/a> and PVR<\/a> technology were featured at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES)<\/a> this year, there still doesn’t appear to be an HD-PVR out there for people in my shoes. TiVo’s HD-PVR<\/a> still isn’t going to fly for people who get their HD Signals over cable.<\/p>\n

he TiVo HDTV reference design will offer all the same unique recording and viewing features currently available for the TiVo Series2 and will also support all high-definition formats, including 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i. The source of the HDTV signal may be ATSC terrestrial HD broadcasts or satellite HD broadcast.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Which basically means if I don’t want to buy a satellite dish\/subscription, I have to get my HD over the air with a regular antenna, and I’m not even sure if I have that many stations in range. Comcast doesn’t yet support a device like the Motorola DCT6208<\/a>, so no luck there either. That would effectively be a combined Cable Box, HD Tuner, and PVR in one. And, as far as I know, there are no HDTV-tuner cards (for computers) that support digicipher 2<\/a>, which is how Comcast sends the HD signal out to their boxes.<\/p>\n

So that kind of sucks. I guess there aren’t many people utilizing HD via their cable company or this problem would have been solved by now. Bastards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
