But it’s not just HD — even Apple thinks that all programming looks worlds better on the TiVo than the old cable box. I believe this is because the TiVo is upconverting all signals to 1080i resolution. Because my particular TV handles this resolution natively, unlike standard definition TV or DVD, it comes out looking a lot better.

I created a Wish List for “all movies tagged as High Definition” so we can easily see what HD movies are going to be on over the next two weeks. We already have it set to record a handful of them, plus I got a season pass for a new show that’s premiering next week. All stuff I could not have done with the old Comcast box.

Thank you again for the gift, although it was a bit of trouble to set up, it’s worth every penny.

Now…let’s hope you don’t have to go through such ludicrous antics yourself!

Had to laugh at the image of the tech holding up his cell phone so you could talk to the people in the office. Too good.
