i can tell you about the domain name sometime...
over a beer... if you want.There should be an easier way to grab HD content from the Tivo. As best as I can figure:
- Download data and tivodecode. (Simple thanks to Now Playing, a… dashboard widget… for reasons I don’t really understand. Remember when everything was a dashboard widget?)
- Stream the mpeg2 through vlc to make a more normal mpeg2 ts file. This part is especially silly. The tivodecode output files are b0rked and nothing else plays them correctly. Except for VLC! Streaming them through VLC creates a more sane file. (VLC transcoding reference)
- Transcode with handbrake.
It doesn’t seem like it should be this complicated? The Internets are failing me here.
