Thread: Uploading to TiVo

    Uploading to TiVo

    Ok, on the OzTiVo TWIKI I can find plenty of info on how to extract video from my TiVo. What I'd like to know is there anyway of putting video on?

    There is software available to convert DivX to TiVo format:

    But I can't work out how to upload it back to the TiVo

    Does anyone know how to do this?? Or if I connect to the TiVo via FTP where do I put the files??

    Thanks

    Use mfs_ftp the same as downloading.

    Where abouts in the TiVo file structure do I put the files?

    Take a look at the "mfs_ftp installation" thread.

    While you're at it, you may want to take a look at nanVue which will automate all the necessary conversion, upload & download steps on your PC.

    I'll be a bit more specific. I have MFS-FTP on the TiVO and can access it using my FTP client, but I can't find any .TY files.

    Where abouts in the file structure of the TiVo are they?

    I've tried randomly searching the file structure but without any success.

    This is the root directory of my TiVo:

    You need to set the FTP port to 3105 and not the default 21.
