PVR Wire relocating

Posted on Thursday, February 1, 2007 by MegaZone

As I mentioned the other day, PVR Wire is shutting down as of today.

The good news is that the PVR Wire team is moving to another Weblogs, Inc. blog – TV Squad. If you want to read just the PVR Wire posts there, you can use this filter or this RSS feed. I’ve also added the feed as a syndicated feed to LJ – the old PVR Wire feed is pvrwire, the new one is, shockingly, pvrwire2.

GRHS Technologies TiVo HME application for HomeSeer home automation system

Posted on Wednesday, January 31, 2007 by MegaZone

I love seeing different applications like this one. Basically they’ve created an HME application that allows users of the HomeSeer home automation system to control devices in their home from their TiVo. It looks like it was released in December. Control your lights, thermostat, etc – all from your TiVo remote. Here’s a discussion thread with screen shots, but you need to sign up to access them.

I picked this up from a post at DVR Playground.
