Here’s a link to the Mega List of Set Top Media Playback Devices in google docs.

Many thanks to Tekzilla’s Veronica Belmont for starting this list and to the crowd for filling in the details. There is so much data inside that it cannot be copy/pasted from google-docs. File—Save As …. is required. It really isn’t that extensive … the cells are A1 … T73 when I looked today.

Devices currently listed include:

• Roku HD, XD, XD|S
• WD TV Live HD, WD TV Live Plus HD
• Tivo Series 3 HD/HD XL
• HD Fox T2
• Boxee Box
• Popbox
• Nintendo Wii with Homebrew channel & apps: www.wiibrew.org
• Popcorn Hour A-110
• Popcorn Hour C-200
• Logitech Revue
• Xbox 360 (Slim)
• PS3 (Slim)
• HDI Dune
• Apple TV 2nd Generation
• TiVo Premier XL
• Apple Mac Mini 2010 (HDMI)
• Sony Network Media Player With Wi-Fi
• Xtreamer

MediaGate and other similar competitors are missing. Software-based media players can’t be included, so Windows7 Media Center, Linux MediaTomb, MythTV and other similar tools aren’t listed either.

Seems that taking this data and making a search-able web DB would be fairly trivial. For example, I want only 1080p and netflix devices – don’t show any others. Hummm.

I have a TiVo connected to a digital box from the company and a Windows7 Media Center PC with a Hauppauge ClearQAM tuner. Today I planned on catching up on a little TV that should have been recorded last night, but wasn’t.

See, now that my VCRs are worthless since Comcast went 95% digital and requires a tuner box to get all but 5 network channels (ok, they also give 15 shopping channels and 8 community access channels too – great huh?), I use the 7MC PC to record programs when there’s a conflict with another or when I really don’t want to miss a specific show due to a screw up with the channel changing on TiVo or QAM tuner.

Be certain to check the comments for updates as I learn them.

KMTTG is a GUI that brings Tivo-2-Go, TTG, downloading to any platform. It simplifies downloading, decryption, commercial skipping and cutting and transcoding via mplayer into a format that is useful for you (PSP, Zune, iPod, iPhone, N800, and numerous other formats like xvid, mp4, wmv, whatever you like). But there’s a problem.

Please help with a solution!

So, I’ve had a TiVo series 2 with lifetime support since 2003-ish. When wireless support became useful – TTG – I bought a supported D-Link USB 122 adapter. I’ve been using that adapter until today. It still works, but doesn’t support WPA and is only 802.11b – WEP. It was kinda slow too. 350kbps – uh, on a wireless network that should have a REAL speed of about 2500kbps.

Anyway, I broke down and ordered the TiVo branded G device a few weeks ago. It arrived today. I didn’t believe the instructions.

1. Plug it into the USB port.

That’s it.

Damn, if it didn’t work. No reboot. No reconfigure of wifi settings.
Most impressive – my download speed has doubled to 650kbps. Oh, and that’s with a connect to TiVo test going.

The other scary thing is that my signal has gone from 85%-good to 100%-excellent. All I did was unplug the old USB wifi adapter and plug in the new. That’s it.

Happy. If I knew how easy this was, I would have changed years ago.
Later, after my current download finishes, I’ll change my wifi network from WEP to WPA. My network-mooching-neighbors are gonna hate me.

My TiVo WiFi stopped working with TTG – TiVo to Go – TiVo 2 Go
I saw the solution of wiping everything on a forum somewhere and didn’t like that thought, so I tried something different. v8.3.x tivo on my series2.

Steps:

1. Reboot the tivo.
2. During the reboot, before the power is really back on, disconnect the USB Wifi gizmo.
3. Allow it to boot up completely.
4. Verified that no network was seen.
5. Try to configure the network and the tivo asks for the usb wifi to be connected.
6. connect it.
7. configure the network settings – most were remembered (IP, netmask, WEP, WEP Key)
8. Now the https URL works AND Tivo2Go works from a client PC without changing any settings.

1. Even after all of this, you may need to double check your firewall settings. When I travel, I enable my software firewall in WinXP – no exceptions. I recently forgot to re-enable the firewall exceptions once I got back home. This stopped the TTG from working.

Your mileage may very, but this was much easier than wiping the TiVo AND only took about 10 minutes to try.
