How do you use an insignia tv converter box with TIVO?
I just approached this problem, I connected the antenna into the Insignia, an from the Insignia to the Tivo (Series 2), then from the Tivo into the TV. This way I watch Tivo and use the Insignia channels when I change to (Tivo) channel 3. Perhaps not a perfect solution but gives me both of their full capabilites.

How expensive is TiVo?
The last I checked, the hardware itself is about $200 or $300, plus they force you to sign up for their monthly service. That's another $10 or $20 a month, which is really quite ridiculous. All it is is a program guide. It's why I didn't buy one.You canpay a lower price for the TiVo box, and then pay a monthly fee, orcan pay a higher ''lifetime'' fee for the TiVo box, which includes monthly fees for as long as you own the Tivo, oras long as the Tivo company is in business.

Are tivo's compatible with HD tv's?
Tivo's are compatible with HDTV with many combinations of hardware and performance. # Tivo's HDseries3 records and plays back HDTV signals for best HDTV experience. You need the HD signal from satellite, cable, or (antenna) channels. The series3 has the HDTV format NTSC tuner and is reverse compatible with the old analog ATSC tuner capabilities. # The FCC mandated that all DVDR'S manufactured after March 2007 be HDTV compatible. TIVO ended series2 production and responded with the series3. # Tivo series2 records and plays back the standard analog ATSC signal for non-HDTV viewing. Your HDTV must have an analog input capability or analog tuner to view the lower quality analog signal. You need the analog signal from your satellite, cable, or local broadcast (antenna) channels. Series2 devices only have the ATSC tuner. # Satellite and cable providers will promote the new HDTV format but will continue to provide the lower quality analog signals in their packages. You need want the HDTV package view HD quality programs. A series2 Tivo will only store and replay the lower quality analog signals. # Feb 2009 the analog signal channels will no longer be locally broadcast by antenna. The FCC is administering a program to provide each household a converter to modifying the HDTV signal to the lesser quality analog channels. You will need this converter to continue using the Tivo series2 with antenna supplied signals. The question then becomes, WILL TIVO SUPPORT THE SERIES 2 DEVICES WITH PROGRAM GUIDE INFORMATION?
