Well I found patches to mplex that enable it to generate ty files. Seems people are having success with ripped dvds. the tivo tool mfs_ftp allows you to extract and insert ty streams. I've got mostly HD streams, so I'm going to have to down convert the content and give it a shot. RIght now I can't afford frontends for each place I have a tivo, so I'm hoping to do this as a stopgap. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
