What does Adobe Photoshop Album do?

Does anyone know of a link that explains what this program brings to the TiVo experience? I can not find anything that tells me specifically what it does that the TiVo software or JavaHMO doesn't do.

No idea what it brings to the TiVo experience, but it's a nifty program by itself. It just helps you to categorize photos, add pseudo id3 tags and rename images. My wife loves it for the added stuff like making printable photo albums and calendars. Personally, I don't think it's worth the $40 they wanted for it (I believe a version of it is free now). And I can't see what it do for HMO besides allowing you to sort your photos into folders.

Thanks. Yeah I have the free version but the free version has not TiVo plug in. It is a nifty program for what it does. I was just wondering how it works compared to what TiVo already provides.

1. Establishes a folder called 'Adobe Photoshop Album' in the Tivo server directory and CAN make folders under that one too, or it can publish individual files to the main folder.

2. Will automatically convert other file formats to *.jpg for HMO and put the copies in the 'saved files' spot in APA.

3. It APPEARS to also nicely resize images to Max display size, but maybe I was just lucky.

Nice to have to skip a couple of steps, but not necessary.
