Am I correct in thinking that this equipment would only work for someone who also has Xfinity?
Premiere XL4 Lifetime and 2 Minis
I'm done with Xfinity and cut the cord. I don't need my TiVO equipment anymore so the following is up for sale:
- Premiere XL4 (TCD758250) w/ Lifetime Service - Upgraded Nov 2019 to 4TB HD
- TiVO Mini x2 (one TCDA92000 and one TCDA92000)
- TiVO Remotes x4
All of the above for $200 plus actual shipping costs from 98332.
I'll also take $50+shipping for everything, but with the original 2TB HD (I keep the 4TB WD drive). I upgraded the hard drive because the original WD Green drive was going bad; the machine would still run and record, but the recordings would skip, jump, and pixelate frequently. I was still able to use mfscopy to copy the system from the old drive to my new drive which is how I upgraded.
I'm also selling locally on Craigslist and FB Marketplace.

It would work with a cable card (and require a cable card), so would work for other providers as well as Xfinity (Frontier/ Verizon FiOS, Cox, or other cable providers).Am I correct in thinking that this equipment would only work for someone who also has Xfinity?
It would NOT work with an over-the-air antenna if you wanted to use it for that.
Thanks for the info. Does that apply to the minis as well? I've seen it stated in a few places that people were unable to add a used mini to their Tivo account because the mini originally came from a cable company?It would work with a cable card (and require a cable card), so would work for other providers as well as Xfinity (Frontier/ Verizon FiOS, Cox, or other cable providers).

Unless it was cable company provided hardware the minis should be usable anywhere but would require a supported device to actually provide service from (a 4 tuner device such as Premiere XL4, or a Roamio, Bolt or Edge).Thanks for the info.

Yup should work on either Moca from the DVR or hardwired ethernet network or with data over power adapters. Everything has a TiVo service number that would just need to be transferred to the new owners account and good to go.Unless it was cable company provided hardware the minis should be usable anywhere but would require a supported device to actually provide service from (a 4 tuner device such as Premiere XL4, or a Roamio, Bolt or Edge).
Sorry for the very late reply. I wasn't getting notifications from the site that there were responses. I've sold the set.
