Using TIVO as a Media Player

[jamesljm]

I am wondering if it is possible to use a TIVO as a Media Player. I have Mpegs on my PC which would look a lot better on my TV and would like to copy them to the TIVO to play them

Is this possible and if so how can I do it?

Thanks

Otherwise get a cheap xbox with a remote and mod it. XBox Media Centre (XBMC) is very cool.
