A TiVo box with the TiVo app is very accessible. My cable provider uses TiVo for their DVR, but TiVo will also work with other TV providers. check with tivo.com to get some more information.

Hi listers,

While watching the final season of Breaking Bad as it was broadcast, I
found myself wishing I had a DVR.  I have grown to love the Apple TV,
as it has opened up the worlds of Netflix and HBO go to me, and can't
believe there isn't an accessible DVR solution.  I am fairly happy
with my Verizon Fios service, although more for the internet speeds
than the TV.  Is there any way I could use their DVR either via the
computer or IOS device?  I have limited vision, and one of the things
I like about the iPad is the ability to hold it very close to my face
to watch TV.  This enables me to use my vision much more than watching
the set from a distance.  If the Verizon DVR is unusable to a blind
person, might there be a solution from another provider?  Could I buy
a DVR from another company and integrate it with my Fios service?
Please let me know if there is another list that would be better
suited for this discussion.  The BlindTech list appears to be gone.

Thanks in advance.

Eric
