TivoTool allows you to download, stream, or burn videos from your Series 1 or 2 Tivo or DTivo. It is a front-end tool (perl script) and GUI ( for OS X 10.4) to pull MPEG2 files (.ty unscrambled) off of Tivo (via vserver hack) for playing in QuickTime 7 with the MPEG2 plug-in.

You need vserver running on your TiVo for TiVoTool to work. vserver can be found at the main download page (http://tivotool.com/down/down.html).

What's New:
iTunes library folder now auto-detected for those with non-standard locations.
Standalone MP4 download added.
Mplex preferences added. This should help with HDTivo compatibility.
Optional audio frequency transcode now applies to .vob files.
Convert to 48khz also flattens to 2ch
hdemux updated to 0.13. It is now the suggested demuxing engine.
Other bugfixes and GUI cleanups.

Requirements:
Mac OS X 10.4 or later for GUI, 10.x for tool.
