TiVo wins "pause" patent infringement dispute

TiVo or not TiVo

By INQUIRER staff: Wednesday 17 August 2005, 15:08
TIVO HAS WON a patent infringement dispute filed against the company in 2001 by Pause Technology LLC.

The case originally arose due to a dispute Pause Technology had about its patent directed to rewinding, fast-forwarding and pausing TV programs. The Federal Circuit granted TiVo the win after a 2004 Massachusetts ruling that found that TiVo does not infringe on Pause Technology's patent.

TiVo itself has been awarded a number of patents as well as filing many patent applications that cover the major aspects of the TiVo DVR and TiVo service. One awarded patent included the functions that allow for DVRs to pause live TV, as well as to rewind, fast-forward and play in reverse DVR-cached TV signals.
