TiVo / HD question: we finally got an hdtv, and were going to upgrade our cable to HD.

Posted by JaxSean (aka JaxSean) Feb 23 '09, 10:39

but we have a regular Series 2 TiVo hooked up to the TV. If we upgrade, which means we'd have to get a box (ugh), we watch nearly everything via the TiVo, so would the quality improve at all?

Or should we just wait to upgrade the cable when we decide to upgrade to an HD TiVo?

Responses:

the bad news: SD shows look *worse* on an HDTV. The good news: watching proper HD is orgasmic. -- nm - Reagen Feb 23, 10:44 2
- Yes, it looks bad on the hdtv - hence the reason we're going to hd cable. But since the TiVo records it, will it "unconvert" it? -- nm - JaxSean Feb 23, 10:52 1
  - it may not even be able to read the signal. -- nm - Reagen Feb 23, 11:00
