Amazon.com Product Description
Humax has designed the 80-hour TiVo Series2 digital video recorder with ease of use in mind, but incorporated the most technologically advanced features. Onboard TiVo Service lets you search for your favorite TV show, and with the push of a button, set the T800 to record it automatically every time it's on. Record up to 80 hours of television entertainment without the hassles of videotape, control live television (pause, rewind, slow-motion, instant replay any channel, anytime), and schedule recordings online. The DVR also offers an electronic program guide (EPG), which keeps the DVR up-to-date with 14 days of program data; Season Pass recordings, with which the DVR automatically records every episode of a favorite program all season long; Wish List searches to find and record all programs that feature a favorite actor, director, team, or topic; TiVo Suggestions, which automatically records shows based on your recording preferences; and smart recording, which detects line-up changes, adjusts recording times as needed and automatically, and even skips reruns. You'll also enjoy digital music and digital photo access--play your computer's digital media files right on your TV screen (requires an existing home network and additional networking accessories)--and you'll be able to access and view recorded programs on multiple TiVo DVRs. The T800's advanced industrial design, and its ergonomically engineered remote control puts the power to pause, rewind, slo-mo, and record right in the palm of your hand. Plus, its varied input/output connections confer multiple configuration options and a USB port grants the option of future feature expansion. What's in the Box

 Image quality is very poor....... February 7, 2007
Michael D. Adams (South Louisiana)
Where do I start? first off....I have 3 tivo's, two regular and this humax....when i first had the humax hooked up, i noticed the picture looked almost like it was breaking up, it was on a CRT TV and hooked up using an s-video so i blamed the problem on this. in the mean time i bought a 32" LCD, this time i hooked up the humax using the RGB component cables thinking it would work going all digital....BUT, this did no good either. i used every image quality setting available, all this did was to increase the file size of the recording and reduce the burning size of the DVD. this is not my primary DVD player, so i didn't have the drive failure like the others. also, mine is one of the "made in mexico" tivo's, the reason i know this is because i replaced the original HD as soon i got it for a larger drive, btw, it was a "maxtor" (good named brand drive). over all, this is a piece of carp, don't buy it.....it's no wonder tivo stopped selling it!
would like input from other owners March 10, 2006

I have two of these units, bought about a year apart, set up on completely different televisions and systems.
BOTH of them appear to create vertical lines on the screen, especially evident in red backgrounds.
Anyone else have this issue? My old Sony Tivo never did this, and the lines aren't there at all with anything else I show on the TVs - cable or satellite direct, or DVDs with a different player (I never use the Humax DVD except to burn discs).
Kinda pissed about it because one of the Humax boxes has my lifetime subscription!
 Breaks March 1, 2006

The tivo part still works but the first thing that broke was the dvd burning part. Then 4 months later the dvd stopped playing dvds. Get a normal Tivo. They are grea this company is very poor. I will never buy a Humax anything ever again. You can buy a 30 dollar dvd player at best buy that will last years. Humax is expensive and didn't last 5 months.
 There are two versions of this TiVo March 23, 2005

Evidently, TiVo got Humax (a Korean company) started in introducing their TiVo by manufacturing them first on the same assembly line. These are marked "Made in Mexico."
On a receint visit to Circuit City, I saw four boxed examples of this TiVo on the shelf. Two were marked "Made in Mexico" and two were marked, "Made in China." All of the displays were marked "Made in Mexico."
The one that I received directly from TiVo is marked "Made in Mexico." It appears to be of the same exact quality as the TiVo branded machine that I have owned for over one year. Except for the face plate, color of the case and a the color of the screen backgrounds and the inclusion of Humax on a few of the displays, it is nearly identical to the TiVo branded unit.
I don't know if the ones marked "Made in China" are of the same quality or if they will continue making them on the regular TiVo plant in Mexico. But, be aware that there are two versions with different UPC codes.
humax tivo works great January 24, 2005

this humax tivo has all the same functionality as a regular tivo (as far as i know). it works flawlessly. i installed a wireless usb adapter so that i could hook it up to my network and it worked without a problem. i did need a phone line to set it up initially, but this isn't usually a problem for most people. there is no noise coming from the machine and it isn't cheap at all. it appears very solid and i am really glad i bought it.
