MPEG decompression from the TiVo then recompression on PC is very costly
in terms of quality.  If you're not afraid of what you might learn, I can
dig out the TiVo hacks book still in my posession and bring it with me
next week (much homework tonight) so that you may investigate the notion
of directly transferring captured video.  I answered truthfully the TiVo
survey about this that I haven't done that, but I didn't say that it was
only because I've not had time to install the proper software.  ;)
