Tivo To Your Computer?
 

Im Not sure of the legality of this, I think its legal, if its not please just ignore my question or tell me...

But is it possible to download videos from your tivo onto your computer.. cause i really want to put the show third watch onto dvds seeing how you cant buy them in stores..

Thanks, For all the help

I am sure there is a way or a program. There have been people who have upgraded their HDD's in the Tivo so they can store a lot more programs.

wouldn't it be easier just to get a tv card? ATI cards come with an automatic TV guide, and then you don't have to worry about making tivo talk to the desktop.

That is a good point, I dunno why I did not think about that.

well. i have a tuner, the thing is that there are shows saved on the box already that I want...

you need to browse the "dealdatabase" tivo forums:

heard about it on a techie radio show. *everything* tivo can be found in there.

Cool, thanks already found a helpful post on that site :)

think thats all ill need ..

Thank You again

cool, no prob. :) I don't even had a tivo, but the show made me curious and I was browsing them for a bit afterwards. that was about week or two ago ... glad the knowledge came in handy!

Tivo Desktop 2.0. It's a free download from TiVo and allows you to use your personal Media Key to pull shows from your TiVo to your computer.

I'm not sure TivoToGo will work with Directv tivo's unless they have been modded. I am not positive but I am definitely going to find out.

For instance, last time I checked home media option is not dtv tivo compatible.

Directv tivos have to be hacked in order to get them to transfer to the PC.

there is NO tivo-to-go or network experience out of the box for DirecTV Tivos.
