[QUOTE="mzemina, post: 26460, member: 11677"] I read on CNET News (most of the following test is taken from following CNET [url=http://news.com.com/FAQ+Behind+TiVos+play+for+iPod%2C+PSP/2100-1041_3-5965853.html?tag=nefd.lede]article[/url]) that Tivo is introducing a new TiVoToGo feature that will allow owners of TiVo boxes transfer TV shows to their computers, including laptops. What is new is that the content can also be transferred to gadgets compatible with Microsoft's Portable Media Center format. TiVo is expanding that service by permitting shows to be encoded and transferred to Sony's portable game machine, the PlayStation Portable, and to iPods capable of playing video. What makes this unique is TiVo promises to make the process simple, as well as faster. For example, the company says an "auto-sync" feature will allow users to automatically update their portable devices each morning with shows taped the night before. If done well, this could be equivalent of Apple Computer's iTunes software, which streamlined the process of transferring music files from a PC to a portable player. Ease of use played a big part in making the iPod popular. It would be very cool if such a plugin could be created to allow a similar simple user interface for MP to transfer video to the PSP or video iPod devices, or any of the various players that can view video in the Microsoft Portable Media Center format. Think this idea could become a reality? If so, then it maybe really worthwhile for me to buy one of those devices. Mike [/QUOTE]
