Can I ftp the .tmf's to my desktop and back to a different TIVO? If so...do i need to transfer the xml files? I see there is a .ty recording the same size as the .tmf... I tried transfer the .ty but it crashed the tivo on playback and there was no recording info on the now playing list (ie... 1 hr long etc..) The description and such was there though.Thanks

Having a hard time finding a decent ftp client that doesnt use passive mode and can open multiple ftp sites

well..looks like using the tmf and xmls worked good. using filezilla but it uses only i connection at a time i believe.. any better ftp clients out there... rather transfer tivo to tivo

The tmf file actually contains the show info xml inside the file (it's actually a renamed tar file), so you don't need to transfer the xml file itself. I think most people's experience has been that transferring the tmf's instead of the ty's is more reliable.

Thanks.. Any way to get then to Group after transfer into the folders?

Look for a client with FXP support. SmartFTP is the one I use. You connect to two tivos from your PC and drag and drop shows from one to the other.
