Title: TiVo Hacks by Raffi Krikorian ISBN: 0-596-00553-9 Publisher: O'Reilly & Associates Pub. Date: 22 August, 2003 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $24.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 2.62 (8 reviews)
Rating: 1
Summary: Almost worthless for version 2
Comment: As near as I can tell, all the material applicable to version 2, the current version, requires elaborate, dangerous procedures that will void your warrantee.
Rating: 3
Summary: "TiVo Hacks" Disappoints
Comment: Book contains lots of hacks, but lacks clarity. Writing seems muddled at times, and instructions for hacks such as backing up TiVo's disk and adding a new disk are unclear/confusing (at best). Although I've not been a TiVo hacker, I do build & repair PCs as a business (and dabble in LINUX)...so I consider myself to be somewhat knowledgable.
Ultimately, the book disappointed me. I shall keep searching for one that's clear, accurate and useful.
Rating: 1
Summary: Do I really need to give this book 1 star?
Comment: This is the perfect book if you bought your tivo brand new over a year ago and have not upgraded to series 2. Alot of the Hacks are Hints and Tricks you already know if you are an experienced Tivo user of at least one day. It is pretty much useless for Series 2 Tivo's. I will be returning mine and buy the von hagen book. Shame on you O'reilly, usually you put out really good books.
