RE: Fw: TiVo - issues !



There are three similar things. With all of these, the issue is, of course, EPG availability for your market.

- Showshifter - a PC-based solution that uses a PC with tuner card. www.showshifter.com
--- It integates with "digiguide" for an EPG

- Sky+
--- Replacement decoder box for the ubiquitous Murdoch UK satellite brand for their tranmissions only

- ReplayTV
--- AFAIK, US-only equivalent, with a number of extra features over and above TiVo.
--- Not yet avaialble in the UK - probably later this year
--- I know they've got a UK EPG up and running, and about to move into Beta.

Regards,

Mark
