tivo to tivo

Postby dragonlord666 » Sun Jul 24, 2011 9:57 pm

OK, so now I have my tivo's on the same network and set to keep their IP numbers via dhcp, Is there a way to transfer tivo programs between the two?
Example:
say I record a great program on the tivo downstairs, is it possible to transfer the program (copy) it to the other tivo (upstairs).
I'm guessing FTP could do it (I use cyberduck, I'm a mac user, but cyberduck is now out for windows too). I'd open two sessions/widows, one for each tivo and just drag the program from one window to the other!
only thing I notice is that I can get into the ty & ty+ folders on the tivo but now and then they all have a red "x" or "!" (it's real small so not sure) in the bottom right corner of the folder image - I'm presuming this is a read only symbol.
is FTP the best way or is there a better way? I can also ftp via the browser by adding :3105 to the IP address and transfer from the tivo to the mac but can't seem to go the other way (prolly due to that red "x" thingy)

Thanks

Thanks, drgeoff, it seems I did not LOL

not that it matters so much at the moment, my tivo seems stuck in a severe error loop (green screen of terror?)
it starts up, does the loading of cache etc, then I get the green screen OT error for a few seconds then it starts up, does the loading of cache etc, then I get the green screen (rinse, lather, repeat)
been doing this for the last 2 hours.

well I might as well go read the thread in case my tivo ever does start up again.
