Thanks for the assistance on this one. It is much appreciated, especially by my wife who has been painstakingly recording the programmes one hour before the ones she wants to watch!

After some fiddling I managed to get the file onto my TiVo (ppp connection over serial, then using the ftpd on the TiVo).

Unfortunately I busted my UK-NZ mains adaptor when plugging it back in next to the TV, so I'll have to wait for tomorrow and a visit to the shops to make sure everything has worked.
