I have just picked myself up a Phillips Tivo Series 1 and am in the process of getting it setup.
One thing I would love to do is have the ability to record from my Dreambox over the network (instead of having to record via the Composite connections)...
After a bit of searching around I have been looking at TivoServer which can accept raw MPEG2 TS Streams, the Dreambox can happily stream a TS stream, and the Tivo can accept it in theory.
Has anyone looked into doing a connection between a Dreambox and a Tivo so the Tivo does the control of the DM via the network (sending HTTP posts to ZAP the channels, and streaming the TS MPEG stream over the network) since then everything would remain digital and not need to be re-encoded.
Thoughts or suggestions about how achieveable this may or may not be.
