Once you enable "GoBack" on your Tivo box, you can post any video file to your Tivo and watch it on your TV rather than your computer monitor. The problem is that the video requirements for Tivo are specific, and the choice of tools and options is almost limitless. This was written to be a one-stop utility to get you up and running the quickest. No other downloads. No searching through posts to find the right dimensions or bitrates or whazzamallitches. Set your destination directory in preferences, load up a video file, and go.

To enable "GoBack" functionality, you will need to install the Galleon Media Server or the Tivo Desktop 1.9.3 with hack.

What's New:
"Autosize" option added to properly set-up videos of any aspect ratio
Now logs processes to console for debugging
Displays video properties
Automatically sets output bitrate to match source video's
Automatically creates default output directory if it doesn't exist
Bug fix: Preference window no longer becomes detached from main window
Bug fix: Progress bar now accurately depicts complete/remaining.

Requirements:
PowerPC-only
Networked, "GoBack" enabled Tivo.
