The TiVo now playing list has been a “feature” on the right-hand side of this blog for a couple years now.
Todd has been admiring it for his blog for some time, but the poor fellow only had Series 3 TiVos, which had networking features turned off so he couldn’t do the same. Now that TiVo has seen fit to turn that feature on in the S3s, I found I had to clean up the code so he could use it over on his blog.
As Todd says, sometimes you have to build things just because you can.
