The companies said in a joint statement that the service will be rolled out to customers over the next few months.

TiVo, which makes its own branded digital video recorders, first signed an agreement with Comcast in March 2005. But the launch of the service has taken longer than analysts expected as both companies worked out how to integrate TiVo software with some models of Comcast set-top boxes.
