This is a problem with the VCR, not the TiVo.
I watched a video through a TiVo only two days ago, and it worked fine - the only strange thing I noticed is that when I paused or fast forwarded on the VCR, the TiVo message came up about not being able to play Live TV - this is due to the way the TiVo detects a "live TV" signal.
Point 2 above leads me to believe that something is wrong with the tape you're trying to play back - try another tape
