TiVo rolls out Vista-compatible, DivX-supporting Desktop 2.5

by Donald Melanson, posted Aug 8th 2007 at 12:56PM

TiVo's official website still doesn't show any indication of it, but Dave Zatz of Zatz Not Funny! says the company's PR folks have confirmed to him that TiVo Desktop 2.5 is now official, and a download link has already been turned up on the TiVo Community Forum. Headlining the updates this time around is Windows Vista compatibility, not to mention support for the transfer and playback of DivX and Xvid files, along with support for conversion of previously transferred recordings. TiVo's also now finally added the iPod to the list of portable devices, and it'll kindly send converted files straight to your iTunes library. Hit up the link below for the download.

but still no support for Tivo S3 or HD....this software upgrade would be great if you could use it with the newest hardware too. Tivo says it will be coming in the Fall but I hope its sooner rather then later
