If you have ever wanted to sit back in your lounge room and watch YouTube on your TV then get ready! TiVo has announced that by the end of the year all TiVo users will be able to indeed watch YouTube clips on their TV.

“For users, the exciting news is that they will be able to actively participate in the YouTube community from just about anywhere, including the online destinations and Web communities they already love and visit regularly,” said Jim Patterson, product manager at YouTube, in a blog post.

“For partners and developers, YouTube has grown into much more than a Web site. It has become an open, general purpose, video services platform, available for use by just about any third-party Web site, desktop application, or consumer device.”

Now TiVo users with a broadband Internet connection and a TiVo Series3 box, which includes the high-definition model, will be able to search, browse and watch YouTube videos directly on their TVs. This comes after millions of people being able to view YouTube Clips on their cell phones.

“TiVo’s strategy is to bridge the gap between Web video and television and make as much content available as possible for our subscribers,” said Tara Maitra, the vice president and general manager for content services at TiVo.
