Sweet! Congratulations to everyone responsible for this milestone. This deserves MAX STARS because a handful of puzzle solving heroes managed to provide something Tivo promised, and has long failed to provide to the Mac community all these years.

FINALLY, we have Tivo-to-Go functionality on our Macs. No Tivo hacking required. This actually seems to download from the tivo and remove the Tivo encryption in one step.

After wasting a day trying to get this neat little app to recognize my "Tivo media access key" I realized I was using the serial number instead. Dooh! Plugged in the right number and things worked perfectly for me.

Well, almost perfectly. I've only downloaded about four shows so far, and one seemed to lock up in the final few MB of the show. Still, I was able to view the partial file just fine thanks in VLC media player and iSquint didn't have any trouble converting the MPG into an iPod compatible MP4. The missing part of the file was stuff I'd have fast forwarded through anyway.

Actually, this is even better than Tivo-to-Go because, unlike the poor PeeCee slobs using Tivo-to-Go, we're free of Microsoft Media Player. We can launch -- and convert -- our downloaded Tivo files on any hardware or application robust enough to handle MPG files.

Show the author some love.
