You are bidding on a used Thompson TiVo hard disc recorder. This model has been upgraded with a 160GB disc, giving 157 hours recording time at Basic quality or 45 hours at Best quality. It comes in the original box with all accessories (manual, remote control and leads).

This unit has the latest UK software installed (v2.5.5).

The unit is in very good condition. There are a couple of faint black marks on the top of the lid, and the remote control shows a few signs of wear (all the text labels are still present however). The TiVo is now surplus to requirements as I have built a media centre PC.

TiVo Features:

The digital video recorder connects easily with your existing television system and is compatible with terrestrial, Freeview, Sky digital or cable.

Using your existing phone line, your digital video recorder makes a quick, free daily phonecall needed for the TiVo Service functionality and up-to-date programme information.

This unit comes without a lifetime subscription - you will need a subscription to use TiVo to its full potential (£10 a month).

Specifications & Features:

Inputs: RF cable, Scart
Outputs: RF, TV Scart and VCR Scart, phono audio LR
Channel Control: Channel and power control of set-top-boxes with IR blaster(included)
Mono and Stereo: Nicam Stereo via SCART

Pause live TV - with TiVo, you can pause live TV for up to 30 minutes so you won't miss a thing when you answer the phone or get yourself a drink. You can also fast forward, rewind, get instant replays and watch in slow-motion providing greater control over live and recorded TV!

Control when recording from Live TV - with TiVo you won't have to wait until the programme has finished recording to begin watching it. You can simply start watching whilst TiVo continues to record the rest. Plus, if you press RECORD partway through a programme you will be able to capture the stored portion as part of the recording.

TV Listings - TiVo provides up to 14 days of TV listings which you can view on-screen. You can find programmes listed by name, channel or time - so no more setting the timer when you want to record something - just highlight the programme and press select!

Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down - the more you use TiVo the more it understands your viewing preferences. TiVo learns your favourite shows and will suggest and even automatically record others you'll enjoy - so it's like your best friend watching TV for you! TiVo even has unique Thumbs UpTM and Thumbs DownTM buttons so you can tell TiVo what you like and perhaps more importantly, what you don't.

Search Using WishLists - lets you search for programmes by your favourite actor/actress or director, programme title, or even by keyword. You can even automatically record programmes based on WishList criteria.

Season Pass - The Season Pass allows you to record every episode of your favourite series- even if the scheduled time or day changes. Potential clashes between programmes booked as Season Passes will be avoided by the Season Pass Manager which allows you to set or change your recording priorities.

Overtime Scheduler - To capture sports events which go into extra time, or allow for any last-minute changes to the TV schedule, TiVo can be set to record up to ten minutes before the scheduled start time and up to three hours after the scheduled end of the programme.

Parental Controls - gives parents a tool to help manage their children's viewing by providing a password function to lock out specific channels or film ratings.

View Recording History - This feature helps you understand why a programme won't be recorded in the future, or why a scheduled recording didn't go ahead. You can also find out why a programme was deleted - either automatically by TiVo or by you!

View Upcoming Episodes - Any time you highlight the title of an unrecorded programme, you can display a list of upcoming episodes on all channels and determine which of these will be recorded.

Payment by PayPal please. Collection from SE16 area is welcome. Thanks for bidding!
