Ok,
This is my set up I have 3 tivos 4.01b dtivo's. One in the family rrom One in the bedroom. I have bought three at one time about year and half ago. So i decided that it was time to use this one somehow. I only have 2 tv's so, i thought why not place this one beside my pc and hook up external storage to this one unit "only time will tell about the external storage, working on it." I have an external box that has (4) 300gb hard rives i would love to use as extra storage for the nowplaying tivo at the pc. The first thing I am faced with is the external box has got firewire ports(damn). I don't know if this is going to work, but anyway... on my idea. With MRV.. That is FTP ,EXTRACTION, INSERTION all rapped up into one. Use a tivo as a server for other tivos that may or maynot be close to your pc, or are you running out of room in the livingroom for the external cases. I say One big external case is all that is needed. Streaming extraction, insertion would never be so easy. Any thoughts are welcome..
