These "DirecTiVo" recorders record the incoming satellite MPEG-2 digital stream directly to hard disk without conversion. Because of this and the fact that they have two tuners, DirecTiVos are able to record two programs at once. In addition, the lack of digital conversion allows recorded video to be of the same quality as live video. DirecTiVos have no MPEG encoder chip, and can only record DirecTV streams.

They have two virtual tuners (each consisting of

12900-621: The next 18 months. Thomson, makers of the only UK TiVo box, abandoned it in early 2002 after BSkyB launched its Sky+ integrated "set-top" decoder and DVR, which dominated the market for DVRs in homes subscribing to BSkyB's paid-for satellite television service. Many manufacturers, including Thomson have launched integrated decoder boxes/DVRs in the UK for other digital platforms, including free satellite , terrestrial , cable and IPTV . A technical issue caused TiVo Suggestions to stop recording for S1 UK TiVo customers in late September 2008, but this

13029-534: The other two shows. As of 2023 Tivo Suggestions are no longer supported. The Thumbs Up/Down buttons can no longer be used to rate programs. The amount of storage capacity for programs is dependent upon the size of the hard drive inside the TiVo; different models have different sized hard drives. When the space is full on the hard drive, the oldest programs are deleted to make space for the newer ones; programs that users flag to not be deleted are kept and TiVo Suggestions are always lowest priority.

TiVo units have been manufactured by various OEMs , including Philips , Sony , Cisco , Hughes , Pioneer , Toshiba , and Humax , which license the software from TiVo Inc. To date, there have been six "series" of TiVo units produced. TiVo DVRs are based on PowerPC (Series1) or MIPS (Series2) processors connected to MPEG-2 encoder/decoder chips and high-capacity IDE/ATA hard drives.
