|

I think digital cable should output a code when they play previews for upcoming shows or movies that will be on cable, so TiVo and other DVR services can pop up an icon on your TV when you the commercial or preview is playing, and if it looks like a movie or show you'd want to watch, you can just click the record button and then say you want to record that movie, or all first runs of that show, or whatever.
The way it works now, if you are interested, you have to search for that show, then program it automatically. This would cut down on that alot and make it more likely for people to actually watch the show, thereby making it worth it for the cable companies to implement the technology! |

| I really can't think of a reason they would not want to do something like this. You could use a system like this to gage user interest in upcoming shows and discover what advertising works best. |
