Transferring to your PC
Not your night to control the remote? Well with TiVo® Desktop you can transfer your TiVo recordings to your PC and watch with Windows Media Player 11!
Transfer individual episodes from your TiVo Now Playing List or automatically transfer your Season Pass™ programmes as they record. Please be aware that any digital rights management protected content will not transfer to your PC.
Please note: transfer times will vary according to the quality of the video content. For example High Definition content will generally transfer at a slower speed than standard definition content.
For smooth transferring of content it is recommended that TiVo Desktop is run on a PC with at least 10GB of free disk space and a high-performance processor.
TiVo Desktop enables transfers to your TiVo from the following video formats:
- Windows Media Video (.wmv)
- QuickTime Movie (.mov)
- MPEG-4/H.264 (.mp4, .m4v, .mp4v)
- MPEG-2 (.mpg, .mpeg, .mpe, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpv2)
- DivX and Xvid (.avi, .divx)
To take full advantage of the Home Networking Package and enable transfers from TiVo to Mac, Mac users will also need to install third party software, Roxio® Toast 10 Titanium.
