    NZ TiVo Newbie? Start Here...

    Start here at the NZ Tivo wiki

    http://www.nztivo.net/index.php/Welcome_to_NZTivo

    NOTE THAT THE RECOMMENDED PROCESS IS NOW:-

    1. download the NZ images which are customised for the nztivo system.

    2. install against the emulator; all relevant settings are in the nz images.

    Links not working?

    I'm a newbie, thought I should start here. The links above don't appear be working?

    Wondering what I need to buy in order to get Tivo up and running. I'm on Saturn Cable.

    Shell scripts - First Post

    Hi All,
    I'm a new Tivo user in Akl. I got my Tivo this morning after following all the info on the OZtivo website, then I finally found the NZtivo website AFTER I had done all the setup.
    I have been going through the HOWTO, and I have successfully removed all the OZ channels and added Sky digital. I have it controlling the sky box great etc.
    BUT
    I had to pull apart the add-all-Sky-channels txt and run the commands with out the shell bit as it reported unexpected end of file.
    THEN
    I can't run LOADGUIDE or any other shell script downloaded from NZtivo. I can't even load the slice manually, I get an error on line 20.
    I did have an issue adding C4, and tried to re-run just that channel add, so perhaps this is the prob.
    It still doesn't answer the problem about the shell scripts not running... any ideas?

    Many thanks in advance

    dude u should be using the emulator not the manual setup.
    Read Ed's thread on setting up the emulator. Just need to modify a couple of lines and your set, channels will be setup for you automagically.

    apologies if the information isn't particularly clear.

    If you ftp'ed the files across, it could be that they got transferred as text and got the line ending screwed up. I know, it happened to me.
    Just check the size of the files against the original ones.
