TiVo announces the launch of its HD XL Digital Video Recorder (DVR) offering 150 hours of high definition television recording. The THX Certified TiVo HD XL delivers accurate and exceptional sound and video playback.
“With so much HD content now available, we felt it was vital to offer consumers an easy way to record as much television programming as they’d like to watch at a later time without ever having to worry about capacity,” said Andrew Morrison, Director of Product Platforms at TiVo. “What is great about the XL is it gives content lovers plenty of room for all the programming they love, saving them from having to decide if they need to prematurely delete a favorite movie or a big game memory when space gets tight. Satellite or cable DVRs simply can’t match it.”
The TiVo HD XL DVR offers innovative broadband features, you can download thousands of movies & TV shows directly to the TV as well as browse and watch YouTube videos. It lets you listen to thousands of songs from Rhapsody and view hundreds of music videos from Music Choice.
It equips a Series3 premium backlit remote control and an included HDMI cable. You can record two different shows in HD at the same time, thanks to its dual tuners. It complements your décor and is compatible with HD digital cable, analog cable and over-the-air digital HD (ATSC).
“TiVo pioneered the DVR category, and they are maintaining that position with the new high performance, high capacity TiVo HD XL,” said Dr. Michael Rudd, Chief AV Architect at THX. “As more consumers adopt high definition programming, they will expect their recorded content to reflect the same level of quality and consistency as the original broadcasts. With a Terabyte hard drive, the TiVo HD XL lets users enjoy more HD movies, sports and other programs in high definition than ever before, and THX certification ensures that the quality is always superb.”
The TiVo HD XL is available online at the Tivo website and is priced at $599.99 (approx Rs. 26,820). It is likely to be available with retailers like Magnolia Home Theater, Amazon and various others by next week.
