Hello,
Is there a way to extract recorded items directly off of a previously installed Tivo hard drive with a Mac (or Windows XP running on a Mac)? Here is the rest of the story...
I have a new Tivo formatted hard drive (from Weaknees) to install into my Series 3 HD unit, but we can't seem to catch up with the currently recorded items to make the transition. I also have Roxio's Toast (Mac version) and can access most of the programs via my home network. However, my cable provider is Cox Communications and many of those recordings are encrypted as an agreement with Tivo. I can certainly mount the old hard drive in one of my Macs and experiment with a host of video conversion software that I have, but wanted to do a little advanced research first.
