Download/Transfer TiVo shows to Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 7/8.9

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos announced the new fall 2013 line-up of new Kindle Fires, now called the Kindle Fire HDX. The new HDX, like the previous models, will come in both 7- and 8.9-inch sizes and HD displays with resolutions of 1920 x 1200 (323ppi) and 2560 x 1600 (339ppi) respectively. Aside from the size differences, both models will be powered by the ultra-powerful Snapdragon 800 Quad-Core processor, clocked at 2.2 GHz. Both will be available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB storage options, as well as either WiFi-only or LTE equipped (through AT&T and Verizon). There is one small cosmetic/functional difference, the 7-inch HDX doesn’t feature a rear camera, while the 8.9-inch model features an 8-megapixel camera. Both feature a front facing camera for video chat, but don’t look to take pictures while you’re out and about with the smaller of the two.

Tips: If you like, you can click “Settings” to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish.

For watching videos on Kindle Fire HDX 7/8.9, 720p with 1500~2000kbps is just all right.

PS. The process is based on Mac screenshots, the way encoding tivo shows to Kindle Fire HDX 7/8.9 on Windows is almost the same.
