The Series 2 DT is the last Series 2 model released, as it was released in 2006 alongside the TiVo Series 3. The TiVo Series 2 DT ditches the "Nightlight" of the previous model and features a black and silver faceplate with the TiVo logo in the middle. The biggest internal change was the inclusion of 2 tuners for recording 2 analog cable programs at once. The back of this unit features the same ports of the TiVo Series 2 TCD240 and the TiVo Series 2 TCD540. These units will continue to receive guide updates if it has been activated with the "Lifetime" service previously. TiVo will no longer re-activate Series 2 units.

Hardware
