Maurice Breuning: if u get a usb memory stick

Marcelina Schossow: Hi Tsuki,If you have a series 2 TiVo you can use TiVo To Go to transfer the shows to your computer and watch them or copy them to DVD's. For TiVo To Go you need to get the software from TiVo. It is free and you will find it with all the instructions here - http://www.tivo.com/mytivo/domore/tivotogo/index.h...Alternately you can route your TiVo through a VHS or DVD recorder. Hook TiVo output to recorder input, recorder output to TV. That way you can monitor your TiVo picture while you record it.Norm...Show more

Mel Crapo: A USB memory stick will not work. A tivo has ACTIVE USB ports that are for connecting a USB to Ethernet adapter or for Series 2 Tivo's you can use a USB to Wireless adapter from Tivo. Then when it is connected to your homes wired/wireless network you can use any of the networked PC's to download the movies/shows to the PC so you can Edit and Burn to DVD. To download the movies y! ou can use TivoDesktop to watch the shows on your PC. TivoDesktop may work for you, but it is better to use Tytool 10r4 to download the shows/movies to your PC, then edit and burn the shows/movies to DVD. Here is a link of how to extract the shows/movies from you Tivo and do this all. It talks about a DirecTV Tivo but also works for a Tivo Brand. Tivos shows are a MPEG2 format but the format says it is a .tivo file, this is why you need Tytool 10r4 to convert it to a .mpeg file.

I hope this helps, please email me if you have any further questions.....Show more
