Series 2 as a plain PVR (no guide)
Hi.
I've recently acquired a series 2 Tivo. I'm fully aware of the problems associated with series 2's in Australia, and was just intending to use it as a plain PVR. Unfortunately I need to somehow get around the guided setup just to get the thing up and running.
I am not concerned with having a tv guide, because the main purpose for this will be with a video camera to assist with swimming coaching (i.e. instant replays for swimmers on pool deck). I have seen them used for this purpose in the states and was hoping to emulate this here.
I have seen the posting on how to start hacking a S2, but wasn't overly interested in setting it up for the TV guide. If I end up using the tivo for tv I will be using a NTSC capable STB and just use the guide from that.
It is a TiVO Series 2 DVR Model TCD24004A if that is any help.
Thanks for any help.
