So, seems like your next step is to generate a "Now Showing" list from the server
that will show up on the TiVo's. I would propose that the data for this list come
from the "showing.xml" file in...

OK, now that the fire department is gone I can report my results. ;)

As you said I had to install the libgtkmm libs on my system. After
that it ran just fine. I have three DTiVo's running...

I reloaded my hard drive with a two month old backup and
then everything started working again. I am guessing that
the failing drive must have already had some serious issues
such that backing it...

My upgraded S2 DTivo recently started showing signs of hard disk
problems, stuttering, slow response, etc. I pulled the drive last
night, backed up and restored to a new drive with mfstools and...

What I really want to do is store my collection
of tmf's on my RAID-5 linux fileserver and
stream them back to the tivo. I want them
to appear in the "Now Showing" list on the
tivo and stream...

I don't want to remux since my Apex DVD player
is happy with my SA Tivo high quality settings,

In linux-land there is ifogen. It will take a vob or properly formatted mpeg2 file and create an ifo file. It's not too fancy but it works. I don't have a DVD recordable drive yet but I have made...

Babelfish huh? Sounds like it was written by Jar-Jar Binks!

Thanks for the quick response and support for linux.

My clip from the "O'Reilly Factor" now muxes fine for 1000 chunks and plays with no discernable lip-sync problems in mplayer.

Thanks for the summary!

One question:



This is true if you have "Save Disk Space" turned off on your SA Tivo right? If not does
the encoder do VBR? Will the new vsplit handle this?

Ah! Another Linux only video hacker. It was starting to seem awfully lonely. Thanks for
the mkisofs enhancements. I've been playing with that lately. My big problem is audio sync too.
I have to...
