Today _blank">TiVo announced a relationship with One True Media allowing users to create their own “personal TiVo channel” to which they can upload videos and slide shows (called “video montages”) created/edited at the One True Media web site. A free Beta program allowing members to create and edit “video montages” which they can publish to their personal TiVo channel for is active through April 30th.
TiVo owners who subscribe to the personal TiVo channels can always receive media from One True Media users for free. Following the Beta period, however, those wishing to create video montages will need to have a paid One True Media account. Monthly cost starts at $3.99 per month. Conceptually, the idea sounds great (excluding the $3.99 per month fee). Once my first video montage makes it onto my personal TiVo channel, I’ll comment on the user experience and media quality.
Beyond the TiVo relationship, One True Media also offers several other services online (such as video and slide show creation for MySpace pages) and off (including books, calendars, photo books, and DVDs).
Note: Media can only be sent to TiVo Series 2 and Series 3 TiVo boxes which are connected via broadband.
