	UltimateTV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		UltimateTV was a product that was developed by Microsoft in Mountain View, California, and it was released to the public on October 26, 2000.
		It was the company's second product to integrate a built in satellite tuner with a digital video recorder and an internet set-top box by using their WebTV service software to allow the user to connect to the internet.
		The interactive-TV capability of UltimateTV, based on Microsoft's® TV Platform software, enables the user to find more information about a particular television program, play along with game shows, find information about a favorite television star or check on sports.

	Tivo vs UltimateTV
		UltimateTVs "My Shows" plays the show you're currently watching in a PIP window and shows a description of the highlighted show, or a list of episode titles for entries that represent multiple episodes of a series.
		UltimateTV marks shows to be recorded in it's grid with a single red dot for single recordings, stacked-dot for repeating recordings, and a "v" in a red dot for recordings to VCR.
		UltimateTV can only create single single event manual recordings, and only for dates that cover it's guide data, making it useless for repeating events that don't match the guide data, or events not yet in the guide data, which are two of the most common uses for manual recordings.

	Personal video recorders, Tivo, Replaytv, Ultimatetv, PVR
		A third entry into the PVR market was Microsoft and their Ultimatetv system, in June of 2000, which was based on their lack-lustre Webtv platform.
		The Ultimatetv system was solely for use with the Directv digital satellite system was was initially only available on RCA satellite receivers with Ultimatetv capability.
		The Ultimatetv would allow Directv subscribers to turn their satellite receivers into a personal video recorder, allowing 30 hours of recording capability, time shifting and pause and resume features and much more.

		This procedure is specifically for the RCA UltimateTV unit, however it will work for the Sony as well, with few differences aside from location of components.
		Unfortunately, the UltimateTV upgrade does not currently allow backup of recording or settings, so any recordings you have on your unit that you wish to keep will have to be transferred to another format, such as VHS.
		Microsoft and UltimateTV security features have protected the contents of the drive so that they cannot be recognized by the BIOS of PC's or have their partitions easily removed or re-formatted.

		However, two weeks later, we saw this news: The 500 workers in the UltimateTV group received word of a reorganization that would send almost all of them to new jobs, with up to 160 being forced to leave Microsoft entirely.
		There are a number of things I like about UltimateTV, especially the ability to speed through commercials in 30-second hops by pressing a single button.
		The people who had it liked it, and the people who worked on the project should be proud of what they accomplished.

	Amazon.com: RCA DWD490RE DIRECTV/UltimateTV Receiver (See Restrictions): Electronics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)*
		Once the DIRECTV and UltimateTV services were turned on via a toll-free call, it was time to enjoy all the DWD490RE had to offer, which is plenty.
		Though "resolve this conflict" seems to change the priorities among the three shows involved in the conflict, there is nowhere to see what a shows priority is in relation to all other shows, nor is there any way to specifically change a shows priority.
		UltimateTV has a few less significant advantages over Tivo that IMO aren't worth mentioning here as I don't feel they outweigh the downsides (and Tivo has additional advantages over UltimateTV that I haven't mentioned either).

	I'm UltimateTV's biggest fan! Why you should be one, too
		The dual-tuner feature is a big deal for UltimateTV, as it allows users to record two programs at the same time and simultaneously watch a previously recorded program.
		It's clean, easy to navigate, and almost always has a TV picture on the screen, something the others lose when you shift to command mode to set up recording schedules or view the program guide.
		UltimateTV plans to add the auto-search capability before summer; in the first release you have to do the searches yourself and then select programs for recording.

	chrsburr's WebLog : UltimateTV
		Let me also say that I once loved my UltimateTV way more than my TiVo and that the TiVo was relegated to the bedroom while UltimateTV occupied the center of my TV viewing universe in the living room.
		A week or so later I noticed that one of the two tuners was working but being the slacker that I tend to be around the house I didn't do anything about it and just accepted the fact that I would be OK with 1 tuner.
		If I would have had a choice I would have never accepted this update because past experiences led me to believe something terrible was about to happen, and of course it did.
