I personally would not want to use this image again. I would save the drive for attempting to offline copy the video files before it got any worse.

As my sister plans on getting a TiVo HD, and imaging a new disk for this one will take time (organising access to a suitable PC, for example, not as easy as it used to be since we had a big clean out at work), I'll retire this TiVo, extract the disk, and try (in the future) to extract the shows. I guess I'll add her disk to the one I took out of my TiVo two years :-) (and still haven't got the shows off)

Isn't there some sort of MFS utility that you can run to check for corruption, or would this damage the disk even more?

Thanks
