TiVo announced TiVo Stream 4K, a $50 streaming dongle running Android TV that’s launching in April.
The new service combines live TV and DVR from the Sling TV app with other OTT TV services, including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and YouTube.
TiVo’s industry-leading user experience and personalized discovery features will integrate seamlessly with the Sling TV app to provide a TV viewing experience that is truly unique when compared to any other streaming product on the market today.
TiVo Stream 4K will also provide seamless integration with multiple online video services, including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, HBO, YouTube and more. This eliminates the need to toggle between multiple apps to access your favorite TV shows—and makes streaming content feel a lot more like watching television. Additionally, the product will feature TiVo+ as the preferred source of free, ad-sponsored television and movies.
TiVo Stream 4K includes a small device that plugs into the HDMI port on your television, delivering the highest quality audio and video up to and including Dolby Atmos sound and Dolby Vision HDR. Combined with a streamlined version of TiVo’s “peanut” remote control enabling conversational voice search, all you need is a broadband internet connection in order to start streaming.
Dave Shull, President and CEO, TiVo
With TiVo Stream 4K, we have created a dramatically better experience for viewers who are tired of hunting through apps and interfaces to find the amazing content available through online content providers.
Warren Schlichting, EVP and Group President, Sling TV
This strategic relationship will not only help our current subscribers rediscover TiVo, it will make it easier for new Sling subscribers to make the transition to streaming video.
