| TiVo (cablecard model) | Works | Works on Homebridge 2.0 per userSaved copyJust in case anyone else is still out there with a working Tivo and using this plugin, it does work in Homebridge 2.0 with no problem. I'm not industrious enough to try to fork it and update the code so it shows up as supported for the few months I have left until Verizon kills my cablecard.
