You can't do that. The recordings are encrypted. You would have to modify the TiVo to disable encryption. As far as I know, that's not known to be possible on a Premiere.

6.4a doesn't include any network drivers at all. If you want to use networking you'll have to install drivers yourself.
The new DirecTiVo is a disappointment to many. I've had one for a year and even my wife, a big fan of the TiVo UI, is disenchanted. I have an HR44 arriving tomorrow and my hope is that I can wean...
There are no "files". Recordings are stored in a special partition called MFS that is not file-oriented. A given recording will be spread across multiple "records" in this partition. You need to use...
My comment assumed you were doing these commands on the TiVo itself. It doesn't apply if you've mounted the drive on another Linux system.
Did you remount the partition rw?
I don't think Bott is involved anymore. The new owners seem more relaxed. What I'd like to know is what sort of special dispensation dvrupgrade.com has for selling TiVo images.
Many cities and towns offer electronics recycling, and some stores (Best Buy is one) do too. I don't know of any electronics manufacturer that has a general recycling option, though some PC makers...
As far as I know, even an unsubbed TiVo can be used as a tuner with a 30-minute buffer. It should "just work", though you'll have the nag messages.
Well, the first thing you need to do is get the PROM on the mainboard "modded". It's not something you can be walked through - it requires specific equipment and expertise. Start reading at...
"cracked"? Please elaborate.
Thanks - I'll give this a try when I can. I can sort-of stumble my way around Linux - I don't use it enough (except for doing software development) to know the disk tools.
What exactly do I type for the "t" argument? That's what I was stuck on. I'm also insufficiently familiar with dd to do step 5 - it's intensely arcane syntax, even for Linux.
I could really use some help with steps 4 and 5 above. I am stuck there...
Yes, you did unhack it. In order to preserve hacks, you have to run the script to install the update and, BEFORE you reboot, re-hack the kernel. You didn't do that, so the TiVo standard kernel got...
Interesting. I was going to try this next weekend. Can you provide the detailed steps you successfully used on the THR22? I could probably figure it out from your earlier reply, but if you could...
The method described in http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=148760 supposedly also works for the THR22. I need to do this in the near future, nice to know there are choices.
You won't be able to do that if you didn't disable encryption. You will need to use TiVo Desktop.
DirecTV has fixed the problem. You may get one more reboot and then it should be ok.
The offer labbie48 referenced is gone. There is one for Dove ClearTone there now.
I know that slices used to come in over the phone line, but I don't think they do now. I do know that 6.4a was added back to the sat stream recently - is it still there? Dunno.
I suppose the...
I don't think the call will download the slices. 6.4a is "back in the stream" from the satellite. The phone call just authorizes the box to do the upgrade, and you can do that manually. You need...
If you have hacked it, you have TiVoWebPlus, right? Can you look for the swSystem tree on the MFS page and see if the 6.4 slices for your box are there? They probably are. The update itself...
"need to hack service"? You won't get any help here.
What do you mean by "programming"? What do you want to do?
