Is any work being done on changing the interface of the Tivo itself (or is this impossible)? I would love to see threading of episodes for example.

Near impossible, unless you know MFS internals..
Version 4.0 of the TiVo software has folders, and the newer versions episode grouping, all this only available on Series 2+ units.. which don't work here..
There is a tivoweb module that allows you to sort the now playing list into folders etc however only visible in tivoweb..
The only sort options you have on the Now Playing list is a code, I don't think you need backdoors to work this..
press the following on your remote..
(S)low, Zer(O), (R)ecord, (T)humbs up (Spells SORT :P )
A ribbon appears at the bottom of the screen, which gives you three different Sort options.
There is also a script hack which allows you to change the recoding date/time on the now playing list thus reordering the list, more of an advance thing as there is no tivoweb module for it.. Do a search for it..
Practically impossible. The guts of the TiVo interface is the tivoapp binary. This is a binary of which no source code is available and reverse engineering it would be a little against the grain (illegal). Essentially you would have to rewrite the complete interface from scratch - a very large job for no pay... not something that anyone is ever likely to do.Quote:
