Blockbuster movies on demand

Actually I have been away from home for a while, I copied the port list from a previous post I made on this forum.

mytivo.com.au has a list of ports used by the Australian TiVo HD.

TCP port 37

TCP port 80

TCP port 443

TCP port 2190

TCP port 4430

TCP port 5005

TCP port 5222

TCP port 5223

TCP port 5224

TCP port 7287

TCP port 7288

TCP port 8000

TCP ports 8080-8089

TCP port 8101

TCP port 8102

TCP port 8181

TCP port 8200

UDP port 37

UDP port 123

UDP port 2190

From memory, TiVo uses:

2190 UDP to perform auto-discovery of other DVRs and TiVo Desktop I think it uses apple bonjour.

37 & 123 UDP are used for NTP time calls.

8101 TCP Tivo-Calypso (HTTP server)

Most of the 8000, and 8080-8089 are used for wget from the main TiVo server.

Be careful not to waste your time when using information on the US TiVo HD as there are many differences between the two countries. for example the developerpublisherdetails link you listed is not overly relevant for Australia as we do not have web videos on our systems. Also a lot of the tags used internally here are different, like Rating and Genres for example.

Also any references to port 31339 for TiVo control you may find are not enabled here.
