TV.com Integrates TiVo Functionality

SAN FRANCISCO: TV.com has signed an agreement that allows users to find and schedule TV shows to record on their TiVo DVR directly through the website.

TV.com users that have a TiVo Series2 or Series3, TiVo HD or TiVo HD XL DVR, are now able to schedule recordings directly to their DVR via TV.com. To record single episodes or entire seasons of shows users can click the "Record to TiVo" button on TV.com show pages and the request will be sent directly to their TiVo DVR.

"TV.com enhances the television experience with content, information and community features that complements our audiences’ favorite TV shows," said Jeff Clark, the VP of TV.com. "In fact, more than 20 percent of our community is on TV.com while watching TV. We are thrilled to be working with TiVo, a pioneer in home entertainment, to bring this new functionality to our community, making it even easier for consumers to watch their favorite shows and discover new ones."

"Working with TV.com to offer our subscribers the ability to easily schedule recordings while away from the home illustrates our commitment to delivering the consumer the best way to watch television," added Tara Maitra, the general manager and VP of content services and advertising sales at TiVo.
