I am trying to make HD vob files to support my new Linkplayer and having problems. It doesn't seem to work as well as with SD ty files. Is there a "how to"...
... I have the "HD Pre-Release" TyTool9r19 and it seems to work pretty good (except for the OTA sound issues, I haven't been following DDB lately so I don't...
I had a similar problem when trying to use TyTool for both SD and HD files. I found out there is a different version of the "mpeg2enc.exe" for the HD version...
henry, Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the Tytools pre-release-3 and just started playing with it. It looks like the procedures are a little different...
Jay, I tried that and it worked OK with small sample files but when I tried using a complete file (5Gig), it didn't work. I downloaded the latest pre-release...
I guess I am two pre-releases behind then, as I said I haven't been following (too busy watching TV!)...but in the pre-release #1 that I have, I do exactly the...
Henry, I just changed from Tystreaming to Multiplexing and I'll see hat happens. This should get the file from the Tivo and create a mpeg file. The people at...
So, the gist of the problem was that the special variation of InstantCake was corrupting the drive, and once corrupted, none of the normal steps would work. To...
I need more space for HiDef on the D* HD TiVo, and need to decide on either doing the TiVo hack to move content to a PC drive, or to just take the easy way out...
I say, hack now! If you only add a drive you still have a closed system subject to the same gradual accumulation of "oh, I should keep that, it's HD, I may...
I'd hate to scroll past 650 gigs of stuff in the Now-Playing list! :P Hopefully we'll get folders someday.I vote the hack route!! You've got a point about...
My experience is limited but I do have some experience with the Tivo to DVD/RW concept. Currently you have to transfer at 480p so you CANNOT transfer pure HD....
Hack or add a drive? Why not do both. That's what I did. Since drives are relatively cheap I recommend buying 2 new drives. Copy your original drive to one of...
I agree with Jay. I also have a second drive added and did the hacks. I transfer a lot of my recordings to my PC using FlashFXP in their .tmf format so I'm...
... With the Avellink Player (only $250) you can play DVDs with 1080i HD files orignally from the HD Tivo (as well as files on any hard drive). But I vote both...
I feel I have to point out that RAID 0 doesn't add reliability in fact it reduces it. It increases performance and capacity, but since there is no parity if...
Thanks for the suggestions! The consensus seems to be to hack AND add a TiVo drive. I think I'll use that approach. Two additional questions: (1) Is it best...
1) I'd backup, hack, backup again after everything is working correctly, and then add second hard drive. You just run "BlessTiVo" on the drive and slap it...
I would backup the original drive first. The other 2 steps can be done in either order. While your old Pentium may be fast enough the bios probably does not...
Joe - Thanks for the How-To. My replacement box is now nearly fully functional (as I define it). I did have to do a bit of searching on how to use devin and...
Alright, so I'm continuing to add hacks, but I am now stymied on fakecall and TivoWebPlus. In neither case do the TPMs want to install. In fact, I can't even...
Hi I am about to purchase an HR10-250 and read that Directv will be switching there compression format to MPEG 4. And have read that this reciever will not be...
Matt, I do, but I tried to cheat and used "echo" to create the file (which duly expanded the string variables into the file itself). It looks like I'll need to...
... So much F(ear)U(ncertainty&)D(oubt), so little time. There is much discussion of these topics on avsforum and tivocommunity, BTW. Yes, Directv is launching...
I just got a promo email from Sonic stating that a TiVoToGo plugin is now included in their MyDVD suite. Is there any way to make this work with DirecTiVo...
3.1.5f is in my mfs/SwSystem. Looks like it downloaded yesterday. I've disabled the phone line, but look's like if your TiVo is dialing you may have an...
I finished my hack a little over a month ago and have disconnected my phone line so that my hack wouldn't get wiped out. I am constantly getting remind by my...
