copy protection on Tivo HD

[elena]

I had a Humax Tivo DVR with DVD recorder but it died, so I just got a TIVO HD. The Humax could record anything on the Tivo onto a DVD. The Tivo HD has copy protection on most of the programs I want to put on my PC (via Tivo to Go) or on DVD. Is there any way around this?

The only way around it that I know of is to replace the PROM, hack the unit, disable encryption, and then pull off the recordings via mfs_ftp.

Information on how to do that can be found via searching.
