Okeley Dokeley,

Ive done the guided setup and the Tivo seems good, one last hurdle before I think I will be sweet!!! At least until next time...

Can someone guide me (slowly remembering my ineptitude). Step by step through how to put my STB's IR code into the Tivo.

I have downloaded the .tcl file from the internet. I have tried to FTP it into the Tivo, it appears there but im not sure what the next step is.

Ive tried to type in 'tivosh MotorolaDTH325-4.tcl' (The file name) from in the same directory as I put the file. The Telnet thinks for a few seconds and then gives me a new prompt but doesn't tell me if anything has changed.

A thread I read somewhere said to type 'dos2unix MotorolaDTH325-4.tcl' that didn't do anything.

So

1) Have I done this part correctly?
2) If I have done this correctly then do I then need to change a configuration from within Tivo ie via the TV? or does it automatically update the IR codes and therefore should be good to go when I reboot?

Thanks for the help in advance! :D

Marv, see my recent post here:

When the kids go to bed I'll re-read what I wrote, but this might give you a start.

Until then...

Hey SeanOFF,

Thanks, I have been through your post from this afternoon, firstly dloading your file, changing the extension to .tcl.

Then going through and making the changes, when I get to end after exiting the tivosh I type ./MotorolDTH325-4.tcl and I get the response

bash: ./MotorolaDTH325-4.tcl: No such file or directory

Does this mean I stuffed something up along the way???

Getting there! Marv

I suppose it complained because you named your file on the TiVo 'Motorola325-4.tcl' and not 'MotorolaDTH325-4.tcl'?

But hey, who cares, you've got it going, good on you!
