No need for MyDVD, Nero works fine.

[Javalsu]

The problem was that I was using nero enterprise edition and not ultra.

But I've run into a new problem. If I record some thing in high quality, nero vision handles it just fine. But if it's recorded in best quality, then ner seperates it into two segments and I can't rejoin them to edit as an mpg.

When I export my edits through NVE it always splits it into two segments. Usually at the 1.5 Gb boundary. I always assumed it was some sort of programmatic limit. Thing is, it's a very simple matter to use/edit the two segments if I want to work with the files later. All I have to do is import both pieces and then I can edit them per normal. Also I don't think I have an option that is higher than "high" quality. Must be some differences out there.

Thanks for the help, but it splits the file before I export it. And I was unclear by what I meant by split. It's very odd, it splits the file into two equal length (time) files, but, the image is very garbled, you can almost make out the top half, but the rest is a lost cause.

[NolesFan]

i have a series 2 tivo, tivotogo 7.1b and nero 6. i've transferred about 30 half hour tv episodes from the tivo to my desktop. suddenly, after the upgrade to 7.1b i think, the audio on many of the episodes has "disappeared". i've tried re-transferring and it still doesn't work.

any suggestions?

help!


I have had a similar issue, I can get the Nero to convert okay, the video comes through best when I leave the TiVo Desktop software running as I use Nero to import the movie and do the initial conversion. However, when I save the file (I would prefer to have just an MPG of the whole show and then edit THAT file in my high-end video edit software), I get no audio stream. Now, when I play the MPG output in Media Player, the audio is there, but when I import the MPG output file into ANY of my editting suites, there is no audio stream.

I even tried dragging the tivo file to the Audio Track line in Nero and re-saving the file. No change. ARGH.

Does anyone have an idea for this? Thanks.

Sounds like a bigger problem. Does it split it into two equal times files no matter what the length or is it on some size boundary? I cannot imagine why it would do the time thing unless that's like a restriction of the demo version or something. A little carrot to get you to pay the money.. Whatever the reason it sounds like a royal pain in the azz. The only advice I can offer is maybe redownload and reinstall. Perhaps something got corruptied in transit on you.

The patch from Nero and the Clean package didn't work for me.
Can't see the tivo clip in nero and audio is choppy

Any help with this?....please

I bought the full addition of Nero and it is updated

[hornby]

I have a different problem. NVE3 worked fine with Tivo files recorded at high resolution. Medium resolution files do not work for me - basically a garbled output results though it will still burn.

Any ideas? thanks very much

Hornby -

It is my understanding that programs must be recorded in high or best quality in order to be transcoded to a compliant DVD format. Others will be able to explain it in greater detail, but "basic" and "medium" recording results in a resolution of 352x480. "High" and "best" recording results in a resolution of 480x480. The higher resolution is needed to transcode properly.

I apologize ahead of time if I am posting to the incorrect thread but some of the posts seem to know what they are talking about with MyDVD. Last night I downloaded the free Sonic MyDVD (used the link off of TiVo's website) & it downloaded MyDVD Slideshow. I understand that this may be an incorrect link & you can't do anything about that but I am wondering if anyone else has downloaded the trial version & received the same software? I see no where that will actually give you the correct software on a trial basis. I tried to go through the tutorial on Sonic's website for burning DVD's w/ MyDVD & what they sent me in the download link is not the software that allows you to burn DVD's (or @ least from what I can tell.) Some of you mentioned that you do have MyDVD & have used it successfully. Can you tell me if you paid for it or downloaded a trial version? I really would like a trial before paying money & from the sounds of it MyDVD isn't all that it's cracked up to be. I do have Nero Ultra 6 installed & have been looking through trying to follow those directions that have been posted. Also using Nero Express. (Just found that post so I will try that later tonight.)

Thanks in advance for the help.

My advice to you would be to spend your time and energy trying to figure out how to get Nero to work. Futzing with Sonic MyDVD will cause hair loss, ulcers and heart disease. Okay not really but it sure seemed like messing with it was draining the life out of me when I played with it. If you can get the free version to work then go with it. But I would not count on Sonic as my primary DVD editing software. Too many bugs, too many failed burns and horrible performance are just three of the reasons why not.. Frustration is just a bonus!

[thorntons]

Thanks I appreciate the response. I will try to work w/ Nero tonight.

[Anthony222]

Thanks Windohpain!

Now that catch files are cleared I no longer have the "Torn picture and sound issues" I've been having, when trying to edit cirtain .tivo files using Nero. I'm so happy I don't have to purchase/replace the editing software I already have, and am happy with.

Thanks again! Tony

[Anthony222]

This method worked great for my garbled files. Thanks Windohpain!!!!

It's weird, my 30min shows import fine into Nero. 1hr and longer get split into part and are garbled upon playback/edit in NVE3.

Windopain's method of A, B, then 3 restores the garbled/split shows to one part which is no longer garbled.

Thanks again.

Amen!

this method worked great for my files with Torn picture and sound, when trying to use NVE3.

Windowpain's method; A, B then 3 restores the Torn picture and sound, and now I can sleep at night to the sound of DVDs burning.

Thanks again.

[DavidM348]

I still don't have the 7.1 update yet for TivoToGo, but a friend with a Series 2 does and needed some help converting, so I offered to help. I studied all the methods described in this forum. After trying all sorts of software combinations (including Sonic MyDVD, NVE3, WinAVI, new codecs) and many frustrating hours, I came up with a messy, multistep WinAVI/Nero solution. Continuing to lurk on this forum, I ran across the A,B,3 post, which I had passed over a million times before, because it just seemed too simple to work (what can I say, I'm an idiot!). Needless to say, I gave it a try and it works like charm. So if you've seen that post and thought it was too simple to give it a try, I suggest you do - it may save you MANY hours of failed attempts.

Thanks Windohpain!

[Jared52]

At least you guys are getting garbled video, I can't get Nero to import the .Tivo file at all. When I try it just fails immediatly.

[Jared52]

Now I'm getting garbled video!

[merrickw]

Hi All - I may be a bit late to the game, but can someone PM me the "tfratzke method"? (Is it anything like the Melbourne method?)

Regards,

[sberger]

I've read the entire thread... I delete files in the Nero folder mentioned, I start the TiVo Service (TiVo icon in notification area next to clock), I start a new VideoCD project in NVE, I add the .tivo file, but NVE just analyzes and adds it (garbled) without asking for the file password. How can I get NVE to ask for the password?

[greg_burns]

Are you using Tivo Desktop 2.1? 2.1 no longer asks for a password. If you are getting garbled video and sound, welcome to the club. :p

There are other methods not talked about here that will solve this problem with nero.

[sberger]

Ok, I tried another technique. I have 5 .tivo files in my directory. Only one worked. Came right up. It didn't even show the analyzing file screen. I saved the project and closed it and then renamed .tivo files so that reopening the project would use one of the other garbled files in the VideoCD project. It wasn't garbled, but the video was behind the audio by 5 seconds! (I've never seen a delay in excess of a second before.) I exported the mpeg-1 and made a DVD out of it. Video of course is delayed. I guess I could not try to adjust the offset using a dvd authoring program, but having these kinds of problems seems totally ridiculous.

[troydf]

I have not read through this thread (I tried but gave up), so I am not sure what steps have been posted before. These steps have always worked for me as far as fixing garbled video, and I have installed NVE and Tivo Desktop on 5 different PCs.

In summary, you add Tivo files to NVE, exit NVE, delete the Video Cache files that NVE creates during analysis, then start NVE back up, and you can use the Tivo files without trouble.

Here are more detailed steps:


1. Click on Start -> All Programs -> Nero -> Nero Digital -> NeroVision Express. Under "What would you like to do?" Select Make Movie.


2. You should see the NVE Video Editing Screen. There is a blue button that looks like a folder and magnifing glass close to the center of the screen. Click on it, and a pop up menu apprears that says Browse... and Browse and Add to Project... Click on Browse..


3. A file browsing dialog box should appear. Change the "Files of type:" to All Files (*.*), Navigate to the directory where you have your Tivo files, and select as many Tivo files as you like, and click on Open. NVE will start analyzing the videos, and this can take quite a few minutes depending on the number and length of your Tivo files.

(Once the analyzing is done, you should see you Tivo files listed in the Asset View box. If you try and use these files at this point, most of them will just be garbled video and audio.)


4. Close NeroVision Express, and using My Computer, navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Ahead\NeroVision\NVFACache and delete any files that exist in that directory.

(If you have trouble finding this directory, do a file search for NVFACache. You should just have one directory. If you have more than one directory with this name, this could indicate a problem with your Nero installation)


5. Click on Start -> All Programs -> Nero -> Nero Digital -> NeroVision Express. Under "What would you like to do?" Select Make DVD Video.


6. You should see the NVE DVD Content screen. Click on Make Movie...


7. You should see the NVE Video Editing Screen, with your Tivo files in the Asset View. Drag a Tivo file from the Asset View to the timeline at the bottom of the screen.

(At this point, you can edit the video by cutting out commercials, etc.)


8. When you are done editing, click Next.


9. You should see the NVE DVD Content screen. If you want to burn a DVD, click Next, and NVE will guide you through the remaining steps. If you want to export you Tivo file to other various video formats, click on Export button at the bottom of the screen.


This has worked for me with all versions of Nero Vision Express that have been released since TivoToGo was released, but here are the versions I am using right now:

NeroVision Express: 3.1.0.11 (If you right click on NVE in the Windows Task Bar, click on About... to see what version you have)
Tivo Desktop: 2.1

[sberger]

Thanks so much! That works great!

As an aside, the 5 sec. OOS problem now appears to develop in the original .tivo file over the course of the program, even if played directly from TiVo desktop. It wasn't related to the techniques (and now I have two!) for NVE.

[troydf]

Glad I could help.

[joe miller]

I have NVE3 (the trial download) running on a Toshiba laptop hooked up to a HP dvd 640 burner by firewire. I have been reading this thread like a Russian novel, downloaded patches indicated, the Cole2k Codecs, cleaned out the cache, used the Make Movie option as described etc. I have a TTG one hr tv episode I have been trying to burn. I can play it on WMP, but I cannot export. It hangs with a partial frame displayed in the story bar. I have Windows XP SP2 home edition, Direct X 9. Originally I had the latest TTG package but on the forum's advice, went back to the previous version that needs a password. However, the TTG file was transferred under the latest version. I assume since I cleaned out the cache, I don't have to transfer the file again from the TV. I did not delete the Nero Codecs when I installed the Cole2k Codecs. I also looked for those incompatible drivers the Nero people mentioned and they don't seem to be present on my computer. Nero says it does not support TIVO files and SonicMyDVD was even worse than Nero. I am at my wit's end. I am attaching the Nero Infotool output which has all the Codecs up to the point I added the Cole2k package, as well as other info on my system.

I cannot believe how ridiculously hard this has been! :confused:

[thorntons]

[QUOTE=DZRhino]I kept having problems getting out to a DVD format with NeroVision Express 3. It would blow up sometimes during transcode.

After a little trial and error I found the way:

1) Go to NVE3
2) Select 'Make Movie'
3) Browse for Media to My Tivo Recordings
4) Under 'file type' select "All Files *.*"
5) Pick your Tivo recording that you want to burn
6) Edit the file to using the sissors to the length and parts you want.
7) Select 'EXPORT MOVIE' and then select DVD format.
8) Export it, don't forget to name the file so you'll know what it is. It takes a minute for every minute of video time to export.
9) You now have a regular MPG movie file ready to edit, merge, etc. with other MPG files.
9) Back to Make Movie in NVE3 and select the exported file(s) and make a movie just like you would from any normal DVD format file.
10) Burn and enjoy!!!

Exporting it seems to clear any problems in transcoding etc.

Just burnt 3 different DVDs and they all work great!

Also did a SVCD and a MiniDVD to CD just to see if I could.

Let me know if you have any input or suggestions.

Additional info: I had some problems getting Nero through the longer shows, so I sent them a support question with the complete log. Their answer was: "Please deactivate the "burn at once" mode before bruning so the process will be finished succesfully.




Hi. I was reading through the post on using NVE3 to burn TiVo files & had a question on your instructions. You mention to select to "7) Select 'EXPORT MOVIE' and then select DVD format." I do not see where to select the DVD format. I do click on Export which brings me to a screen where I can specify the name. I see a box that says format but in the box it was only AVI & something else. Nothing that said DVD. I have attached a couple of screen shots here also. Do I need to change any of the compressors? Can you offer any advice on this? I am currently running the latest version of NVE3.

Thanks!!

The application data folder is a hidden folder. You must turn on hidden files and folders view. Control Panel->Folder Options->View tab.

It may not be in that location.. use the windows search facility and search for NVFAcache.

That is where application data folder is. Search will not find a hidden file or folder. I do not know if this is the correct folder or not for this method. I prefer using the simplier method which cannot be discussed. :rolleyes:

There are different flavors of Nero. If your's came with your burner it is an OEM edition and may have limited functionality.

OEM (http://ww2.nero.com/enu/FAQs_Products_NeroBurningROM_Nero6-xx.html#1)

Nero has a FAQ on this (but I cannot find it at the moment), that discusses 3 different OEM levels that are out there.

These folders are only hidden if you leave the default folder properties set. Simply change the default folder options to "display hidden folders" and you're there. I reset mine so long ago I honestly don't remember if my XP installed that way or not. If it is set that way then it takes 20 seconds to change it. There is also an option under the advanced tab of search to include hidden folders.. Either way, this stuff aint hard to find.

after all.. this IS windows..

[joe miller]

Thanks, Thorntons, but I was indeed using the DZRhino instructions you listed. But when I get to the export step, the program hangs. We are talking all night long. I notice troydf has a procedure that changes the order of some steps in the A,B,3 procedure that was discussed many posts ago. Perhaps it is critical just when you clear the cache. I'm going to try that tonight.

However, I am still concerned about the Codecs issue. Do you guys delete the Nero Codecs when you install the Cole2K Codecs? Also, do people save before exporting in the DZRhino procedure (there is both a save and export button)? NVE3 seems to hang on the save command also. I'm also assuming the basic DZRhino or troydf procedures should work without doing any editing. At this point I'd be happy just to make a disk image, let alone actually burn anything.

This is an amazing thread. With all the arcane procedures, it is beginning to sound like the Necronomicon of the Mad Arab, Abdul Alhazred. Someone ought to send the whole thing to the sobs at TIVO, Sonic and Nero who are letting this situation fester.

A couple of thoughts here. The "slow transcoding" scenario is one that I've encountered from time to time with Nero. I don't know if it's the cache or the windows registry but a complete remove and re-install has always fixed it for me. I've done this about once every coupla of months since I started using Nero heavily. The "hang forever" scenario is one I've also seen but only once and only with one particular file. Nothing I tried got me around that one and I eventually just on a lark I tried MyDVD to edit and transcode the file and then exported the result to an mpeg file which I then imported into Nero and burned per normal. Using MyDVD was exceedingly painful but on this one occasion it actually came through for me.

I hit a milestone over this past weekend. I burned my 100th DVD .. Well not really.. what I did was completed my second package of 50 DVDs since I started using Nero exclusively. Since I made the switch from Sonic I have created exactly ONE coaster.. I had a total of 4 DVDs that did not burn to completion owing to little things like the PC crashing, the wife logging me off etc, but for all intents and purposes Nero burned 96 out of 100 DVDs perfectly for me. And even the failures have at least one good episode on them (I typically burn two episodes per DVD) so if I wanted to I could actually use those. The problem with them though is that my DVD player gets hung when it hits an unclosed write and it's hardern heck to get that sucker out of there once it gets in that state. Once I had to actually power it off and pry the tray out. I would like to stay away from having to ever do that again.

You should probably mention that you are not attempting to burn .tivo files, or follow any of these arcane instructions. You've mentioned before that you use a capture card instead. That seems like an important point to make. People will read this and think; if he can do it, so should I. Then run straight into the same brick wall that the other 500+ posters have hit with .tivo files and Nero. :rolleyes:

I agree Nero is the way to go, but not if your still working with the original .tivo file. :down:

Good point.. as we've discussed in the past, I don't bother with Tivo2Go because it's sooooo damn slow. I just don't have enough patience to wait 2-3 hours to transfer one hour of video. I know I could transfer the stuff overnight.. but I would much prefer to edit and burn one DVD before I go to bed and then launch another one overnight and wake up to yet another successful burn.

Though I don't mess with the .tivo files I suspect that a lot of the problems people have are the same as what I see with my captured files. Some bits get flipped, or dropped. After all we are talking about a network transfer, often via wireless, which frankly I don't recommend for large data transfers AT ALL. The point being, that if it works one time, then it should work again and again and again, once one figures out what it is one should be doing. The caveat being if in fact there are other factors out there corrupting either the inbound data files or the Nero codecs themselves... or my favorite malady, the stupid Windows registry getting hosed. When someone posts that Tivo2Go can transfer files in a reasonable amount of time, .. say 15-20 minutes per hour of video, I will get T2G and figure out the quirks of making Nero work on .tivo files. Until then, it's not worth buying, installing and configuring the NIC, downloading and configuring T2G AND getting the Nero "procedure" to work. Or worse, having to do most of my work with Sonic... just so I can take 3-4 hours to transfer each file, followed by 2-3 hours to edit and burn the darn things. Life's too short for that. Every step I've taken, every piece of equipment I've purchased over the past 6 months has been aimed at making the video saving/editing/burning process faster and easier. T2G violates both those principles at this point. But I don't expect that to always be true.

It also bears noting that folks should not assume that just because one person can figure out how to get something to work "I should be able to too." We all know that everyone has different levels of aptitude and experience in various areas of computerdom or even Tivodom. Some guys (and gals) are just good at breaking this stuff down, firguring our what's wrong and getting things to work. At the risk of boring folks.. it's largely what I do for a living. I am a software support engineer by trade... I've been figuring out how other peoples' code works (and breaks) and either rewriting portions of the code myself or giving customers ways to either work around whatever the issue is for 20+ years. I feel fairly confident that I could have the "method" mapped out and working inside of a weekend and over time would, through experience, figure out the breakage pattern and establish ways to get past those too. I just haven't seen the justification for it yet because it would make my TV show archive process SLOWER and more cumbersome than what I have now. When that changes, I will join "the 500" and start beatin on Nero with .tivo files just like the rest o yall.

Last Tuesday I installed the trial version of Nero Vision Express 3 to see if I could edit my TiVo recordings with it.

Well, it worked so I purchased and downloaded Nero Ultimate 6.6 and installed it.

Ever since when I try to read one of my TiVo files with NVE 3 the sound is chirpy and the picture is garbled and only on the top half of the window.

I have obviously blown up the codec that was correctly decrypting the TiVo files.

I uninstalled Nero Ultimate and reinstalled NVE 3 trial version (had to input my key), but still get garbage when I read TiVo files. The two that I edited with the trial version are still OK, and I can play them, One I even burned to DVD and I can play it on my DVD player.

I have attached my Info tool text file.

Please help!

[kpross8]

i don't think if its been said in this monster of a thread or not, but i have found a way to fix the garbage that nero inports from the .tivo files. when you go to make movie and import the .tivo file and it gives you garbled video and audio, all you need to do is save the project and close nero, and then delete nero's cache of the .tivo file from c:\documents and settings\<your name>\application data\ahead\NeroVision\NVFACache (you need to show hidden files and folders) just delete all the files in that folder and open up your project. Voila, the video works!

I uninstalled Nero Ultimate and reinstalled NVE 3 trial version (had to input my key), but still get garbage when I read TiVo files. The two that I edited with the trial version are still OK, and I can play them, One I even burned to DVD and I can play it on my DVD player.

I have attached my Info tool text file.

Please help!

The problem with screachy audio and garbled video is what this thread is about. (Or how to fix it, anyways). :rolleyes:

Doesn't happen with every file, but a lot of them.

The simplest fix cannot be talked about here.

This thread has been a great read and I would like to say Thank You to all who have hung in there and worked out the problems with NeroVision Express. What worked for me was clearing the cache out after NVE3 first read it.

I have also picked up on many other tips thru out this thread in which I put to use daily.

A little history: I started off using NVE3 and all woked well for the first 3 or 4 files but then I ran into the broken video with segments and audio that would bring down an elephant at a 1000 yards. In my haste to resolve this issue (before I found this thread) I used a method we shouldn't talk about here and it worked to somewhat satisfation. Now that we have the NVE3 issue figured out I would like to see Nero step up and resolve the problem. It's a program has brought me much pleasure over the years and I hope it continues for us TiVo owners.

Again, thanks to all who resolved this issue!

Now that we have the NVE3 issue figured out I would like to see Nero step up and resolve the problem.

I had been diligently trying each point release of NVE since January. I had downloaded, but not yet tested the Jul 15 release. Anybody try it out yet?

No I haven't, Thanks for pointing it out. I will this afternoon and will post back what I find out.

You may wanna hold off on that.. I updated to the release just prior to this one.. after I had a couple of failed burns in a row after more than 100 consecutive successes. I thought it was the old "need to be reinstalled" problem I'd seen before so I figured I would update Nero while I'm at it. I went from Nero 6.6.0.13 to 6.6.0.14 and from NVE 3.1.0.7 to 3.1.0.11 .. To make a long story short, it didn't completely solve my problem. As it turns out the problem seems to be in Windows Explorer itself.. it seems to hang quite frequently since the last update and occasionally will get so bad that it will cause a DVD burn to lock up. This caused me to create 2 partial burns.. I went to Microsoft to get a fix but there appears to be none for now except to install the latest updates, which I did to no avail. So in the interim what I've been doing is writing my projects out to a DVD folder until I can get this explorer deal worked out. Once it is, I can just burn these guys to disc in rapid succession without any transcoding or what have you. The point is, the update to Nero may have contributed to the problem.. I don't really know, but if you don't have anything broken, I'd think twice about installing any updates.

Interesting, I was having Windows Explorer hangs myself recently. I wonder...

I am in the fortunate position to be able to roll my machine back to a stable point using Ghost. I did that after having experiencing those Explorer hangs, and they went away. Tonight I will apply the latest Nero updates and see what happens.

[LBB]

I'm using the lastest release of Nero 6.6.0.15 and NVE 3.1.0.14 and haven't had any such problem(s). I will be upgrading to 3.1.0.14a tonight to test.

On a side note, I went ahead and bought WinAvi 3.6 just to play around with.

[LBB]

Well, It didn't help. I'm still the same problems as before. I tested a .tivo file before upgrading to 3.1.0.14a that was getting corrupted and then I cleared the cache and upgraded (and rebooted) and tested with the same file with the same results.

I also jumped over to Nero's site to check out the release notes and none have been posted on this upgrade.

Oh Well, Maybe next time!

You know I have Ghost and Bounceback on my machine and rarely use either.. I really should get back in the habit of backing up at least the OS image more regularly.

[greg_burns]

I checked and I guess I have been running the latest versions without issue since the 15th. Downloading the "a" versions now. Wonder what that fixes?

We'll have to wait until the release notes are published. Should be tomorrow since the update was released today.

Hi,

Can anyone confirm if TiVoToGo and its .tivo output format will work with "Ulead DVD Workshop Express"?
If so, are there any codecs I need to download, etc.

I REALLY hope it works with the program!

Thanks!

Patrick

P.S.

I can't confirm if it works yet myself because I don't have TiVoToGo yet because I have a TiVo/DVD-Recorder system so I'll get it later.

I really want to be able to transfer some of my TiVo recordings to my computer to burn to dvd in the best quality possible. - For most I would use the DVD Recorder with the TiVo, but the ones I'm talking about are ones which I want to remove commercials for.

Thanks again!

[thorntons]

I guess I am still confused & having trouble with getting these files burned to my DVD's. I have been so frustrated that I have given up on it for awhile but with the fall coming & the new season of TV shows I need to get this working so I can get the files off of my TiVo. I have been trying to use the "DZRhino instructions" on how to burn. When I get to the Export step - that's where the problem starts. The export button is grayed out so there's no way I can select it. Someone mentioned that I may have an OEM version - there are 3 different versions of Nero out there & I had the incorrect one. I purchased the Ultra version which is updated to 6.6.0.16 as of tonight. Currently running NVE 3 version 3.1.0.16. Does it matter that I am trying to burn to a DVD-R? From my understanding it doesn't. Can anyone assist me? I'd appreciate it so much. Plus my TiVo would like to get rid of some shows :p

Also when I use Nero mine tivo files are semi good on the top half and black on the bottom half. Also there is blocks of green mixed every now and then. Same thing for me in Sonic MyDVD. And once I installed the trial version, WMP 10 could no longer play the .tivo's (1 second of video, then blackness; no problem with audio). I hoped to blame Sonic for everything, but if it's also happening with Nero...

That sounds like a codec problem to me.

Nero gets the garbled and video sometimes regardless of what codecs are installed on your machine. Tivo's DRM is gumming up Nero somehow (but not always, some .tivo files will work just fine). The same garbled .tivo files work just fine with Nero after the DRM is removed. (how to do this is not allowed to be discussed publicly here).

What I am trying to say is the two problems are not related. Your Sonic problem is most likely due to a codec issue on your machine. The Nero problem you quoted is the known bug between Nero and Tivo's DRM. IMO.

[monkeyfur]

So i have been working with the .tivo files trying all suggestions, installing the codecs, deleting the cache etc...but always getting the garbled files...

So i renamed the extenision of the .tivo file to .mpg
the file still played back garbled.

........then I changed the extension back to .tivo.......

it works...I have no idea why...i have tried it with 4 transfered files and they all get "fixed" this way...no more screwed up movie file!
perhaps it strips off some headder?

1. rename file to .mpg
2. rename back to .tivo

try it... it might work for you!

i'm still trying to figure out why people are so down on MyDVD. I have the 15 day free trial and it has worked flawlessly for me so far. I found it extremely easy to use, and this is coming from someone who has nearly Zero video editing/making experience, at least not recently. Maybe the newest version is a lot better than when this thread was first started (jan 05). But there is still the fact that i can only use the free trial for about 10 more days or so. So if NVE works just as well, i'll go with that, as I have Nero6 anyway.

[azitnay]

I doubt the failure rate with MyDVD is as high as this thread makes it seem... Most people who have it working would never come here to complain.

Really, I expect problems like these from Windows software nowadays. For me, NeroVision, the program so many people recommend as an alternative to MyDVD, had most of the problems that people report with Sonic (crashes, freezes, etc). It's just a crapshoot.

[FrancesTheMute]

i just successfully used NVE to make another DVD last night, so i think i'll just stick with that since i already own Nero. no need to spend 50 bucks on a program when nero can do the same thing.

[rrrumba]

after initial sync issues i was able to do a whole show with NVE3 after i copied the program to my PC again. looks good! :D

Rainmkr what did you do to fix your sync issues!? I'm using NVE2 and by the end of a 1 hour program my video is lagging the audio.

So far I have used the direct dump program to convert .tivo to mpeg as well as NVE2 exporting the .tivo to mpeg. Either case the resulting mpeg on my computer works great however once I burn it to the dvd the audio and video end up with the same sync problem?

[hockeymom]

Bought Nero - can't get IT to read my TIVO files. The MYDVD crappy software churns for an hour or more then crashes on my computer. Thought perhaps NERO would work but, alas, no. How the heck does one burn a DVD of TIVOTOGO stuff?

[greg_burns]

NeroVision Express does not natively support .tivo files. When you add a video, change the Files of Type dropdown to be all files (*.*). This will allow you to at least begin working with .tivo files.

You'll quickly discover that sometimes they don't play correctly in NVE. (Screechy audio and garbled video). You have two options.

#1 Remove the DRM from the .tivo file using software that we can't talk about here ;)

#2 Follow the steps buried in this thread:

Add your video file(s).
Close NVE
Delete the files in this hidden folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Ahead\NeroVision\NVFACache
Reopen NVE and begin click on Make Movie (don't try and reimport .tivo a seoncd time)

Good luck

[rmccann]

Well I looked over all input on this branch (I think) and tried every trick posted. Here is my 2 cents worth. Some select broadcasts are sent that are not in a copywrited mode. Looking at the actual video file data in binarary is why I think this. There are videos that will import into Nero with no problem, and can be edited. However there are many more that cannot be edited at all! There audio comes up as a screatching noise and the video is distorted. Those that could be edited amazed me at their quality! So much nicer than moving the TiVo to my bedroom and connecting to my computer via the A/V output into a AD converter adn ending up with video only a bit better than a high quality video tape transfer. I am going to continue the search for the codex that will do the job as it must exist, or find out how to write my own! (lol) Oh my system. 2Gb P4, 1.5G ram, 600Gb storage so its fast enough to do the work (bairly) The same thing happened using WinAVI v7.1 with the same files, Nero V6.6.0.16 so all is current in my computer.

[rmccann]

I tested it wth Ulead 7.0, 8.0, and 9.0 the TiVo files did not work with any versions, also changing the extension to MPG caused no difference.

[greg_burns]

However there are many more that cannot be edited at all! There audio comes up as a screatching noise and the video is distorted.

:rolleyes:

Yes, that is what we have been saying. See my post directly above your's for your options. All transfers will work with Nero, but you have to do one of those two steps.

[GatorDeb]

I posted this in another thread then I found this thread.

I'm using Nero 7 Ultra Edition... Nero Vision... add video, next next next, burn, and it can't get through Preparing file to transcode (after pressing burn).

Here's the log:



Any help appreciated!
Thanks! :)

It's a funny thing, I was able to back up a South Partk Episode flawlessly, but after that inital project it is the only .tivo file that opens prperly. Also I am not being prompted for any password when creating projects. What am I missing?

[GatorDeb]

By the way I tried exporting, and all I get is scrambled video.

If you've installed TivoDesktop 2.1 or 2.2 it doesn't ask for a password anymore.

I've had success with deleting the cache, but it is simpler just to remove the DRM.

i used tivo2go to create a .tivo file on the hard drive. then, i wanted to use nero vision express 2 to 'make a new movie'

i highlighted a 1/2 hour program that was on the hard drive, said 'make a new movie' and it said the it'll take 1hr 30 minutes.

Is there a quicker way to do this?

I've never really timed it, but it does take a long time. The only thing that will make it faster is probably a faster CPU. It takes a lot of horse power to transcode to DVD format.

I believe the DVD Recorder Tivos are much faster at burning DVD because the video is in the proper "format" on the box and doesn't need transcoded. Not sure what happens with those units after the video is tivo2go'd to your PC. Is it still in the proper format? :confused:

I am running Nero V7, which is running NVE version 4.0. If i run the .tivo file though media player V10 it works fine, but when I bring it into NVE it is all choppy and all over the place. Any ideas?

Haven't used NVE 4 yet, but sounds like the same issues the 3 has. Removing the DRM fixing the garbled video and sound.

What is DRM ? Is that a codec ?

[brainmusic77]

Your right..IF you continued to use NVE or MyDVD to do the transcoding. There are faster solutions and that is where the time is saved. Check your PM.


tfratzke - could you please let me know how to tranfer to DVD with your method. Seems like everyone loves it and I am new to this (just set up my tivotogo today). Thanks so much!

Although I am not generally computer illiterate, I am having problems following the instructions in this thread for burning with Nero. (I have never used Nero, but usually can figure things out!) I had Nero 6 on my computer when I bought it, and I just downloaded the "Nero 6 Reloaded Updates" (from Nero), which supposedly include NVE3 in "Update Package 2". But when I open it, it is called "Nero Express 3 SE", and I don't have an option for "Make Movie", as posted in the instructions on this thread; only "Make CD---> Video CD". Is NVE3 the same as NVE3 SE? Furthermore, when I just pick this and attempt to add the tivo file, I get a pop-up which states "DVD-VIDEO PLUG IN REQUIRED". Do I need to buy this, or not? I can't find anyone else in this thread who has mentioned this...

Thanks in advance!

[greg_burns]

http://www.softwareandstuff.com/SWW12252.html

*Nero OEM Suite 1 does not include the DVD Plug-In, which means that Showtime supports viewing of VCD video but not SVCD or DVD video. Likewise, Nero Vision Express supports burning of VCD but not SVCD or DVD Video.

There are three "levels" of Nero 6 OEM. It appears you have suite 1 w/o the DVD plug in. You definately need this to make DVD Video.

Personally, I would just look to purchase full edition of 6 or 7 to be sure you have everything.

[m-read]

I just got TiVo to go working and used Nero express to burn a program, but the second time I tried, it just burned a partial image. I tried 2 succeeding times and got the same result. Can someone give me some advice, but keep it simple, I'm old and slow.

[John R.]

I have been sucessfully using .ty files with absolutely no problems(100%sucess), but that setup may be unavailable in the near future, so I want to try the "straight up" method, and hope it can be close to as simple as the 5 step method I am currently using.


tfratzke - Please send me a pm. I also have almost no hair left and can't afford to loose much more of it!!

Greg_Burns - Please PM me with the "easy" solution.




Thanks all!!

Use DSD (DirectShow Dump).

VideoRedo now supports .tivo files as well and will output raw .mpg files.

[Snewt]

I just tried it and it didn't work for me! I did steps 1 through 8 and tried to view and edit the exported .mpg file and all I got was a black screen with intermitent partial images and the audio sounded like a chirpping bird tweeking on ICE! What did I do wrong? :confused:

[todompol]

My problem is that when Nero imports the .tivofile, nothing shows. Its black, with a little digital flicker now and then, and no audio.

How can this be fixed? Are there any specific links, or steps, to address this?

Thanks, from a Newbie.

[BillShannon]

It's a bug in Nero. I recently upgraded to the latest versions of the Nero 6 programs and I haven't seen the problem since then. Unfortunately, the latest versions come with a few other minor bugs.

Yes, the "screechy audio/garbled video bug". :)

I've updated to every build of Nero 6 and it has never fixed this. (Including now Nero 7). It doesn't happen with every tivo file though, which makes it hard to nail down. :mad: Hard to call it a bug though, when Nero doesn't officially support .tivo files. :rolleyes:

The ultimate fix for me (and a lot of others) is to "free" the .mpg file from the .tivo file first using DSD or VideoRedo.

See my post just a couple back.

[dcahoe]

DirectShow Dump works great for me. It lets you convert a whole batch/folder of recordings all at once. It's not instant, but I just let it run in the background and delete the originals after its finished with them.

Best of all, it's FREE !!!

Ok, now try this one...

I got the raw MPEG from DirectShow. I imported it into Nero, started burning the cd, and the playalong screen freezes at the same place each time i've tried to burn the DVD, but just for a second. It then proceeds to burn the rest of the video file. :up:

When I try to play it, however, it freezes up at the same spot, and will not play forward. Any advice for that? :mad:

That is definately weird. What if you try using Videora (http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/TiVo/) to transcode your video to DVD format ahead of time before using Nero... Just a thought.

[todompol]

Best I can tell from reading up on it, Videora would convert the MPEG back into a .tivofile. Is that correct?

Thanks for your willingness to help BTW...

[greg_burns]

No, nothing will do that. :( (The implications are huge, but I digress (http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?t=284726) ...)

Videora TiVo Converter (I think they have other versions), will take .tivo, .mpg, or .avi files (like DivX) and "transcode" them to .mpg with specific dimension and bitrate. At least that is what I understand.

I use it sometimes to take a bittorrent downloaded .avi and transcode it to proper DVD ratio (like 720x480) for burning to DVD. It will do the same for a .tivo file.

If your .mpg file is already in proper DVD spec, Nero just has to build the menu and should skip the whole transcode portion. This will save you time in NVE, but you will spend it instead in Videora.

I have not had 100% sucess with Videora, but it is something to try.

[wmgoat]

To be honest, though, this whole experience has been so harrowing that I'm about to break down and buy MyDVD just so I'll have someone supported to complain at if/when things don't work.

Forged the idea of getting official support, Tivo points fingers at Sonic and Sonic points fingers at Tivo, and with that scenairo, nothing ever will happen.

sometimes, the only way to get it to work is downgrade Tivo to go (Tivo to go back to ver 2.0) and completely wipe all traces of Sonic away and reinstall.

I paid the 50 bucks for Sonic, have Pinnacle (and cant get that to work on Tivo files), and am not about to fight more to try to get nero to work, unless Nero 7 supports a .tivo file right out of the box

Ive got a method to get sonic to work using tivo to go ver 2 if anyone needs it. PM me.

This is my first question & hopefully this doesn't violate any rules. If so please direct me to proper place.

I traveled alot recently & want to watch some shows on my portable DVD player.
So, I was tired of searching thru my mountain of VHS & setting up recording times.
This is my first TiVo & I downloaded BattleStar Galactica to my desktop computer from my TiVo2 using the TiVo DeskTop.

I would like to burn to DVD to watch on the plane..nothing nefarious like pirating...please.
What is the most reliable (& Fast) software that I can use to change from .tivo format to .mpeg format?

I have Nero 6.6 Ultra & updated.

Please PM me if this is breaking any forum rules.

I tried search but just got a little confused & overwhelmed.

Thanks in advance for any help!

[greg_burns]

DirectShow Dump http://prish.com/etivo/tbr.htm

Then use Nero Vision Express to make DVD from the .mpeg

You will need .NET installed (if you don't already have it) to run DSD.

Thank you for confirming what I had gone ahead & tried after writing up the question.

Btw, does it take almost 3 times as long as the actual program time to encode & burn an mpeg into DVD format as the program itself in Nero 6.6?

I tested it on the ew to TiVo welcome show bits which are 2-3 minutes long & it took about 8-9 minutes for the entire transformation.

Thanks again for helping a newbie out.

Not sure how long, but it definately takes a long time. Very CPU intensive. I believe what it is doing is transcoding to DVD spec.

"Official DVD aspect ratios are 352x240, 352x480, 704x480, or 720x480."

If you want this process to be faster (sacrificing video quality I assume) then choose a recording quality on your Tivo that matches one of those ratios.

I think 352x480 is the only one (of those choices) my SA Tivo does. It is Medium on a 240 (without video smoothing enabled on Tivo). Not sure about a DVD Tivo.

Play back your .tivo file in WMP and do a file properites. That will tell you what the dimensions is for your recording quality. Try and find one that is proper DVD ratio...

A smaller ratio (and corresponding smaller bit-rate) will also allow you to fit more video on a DVD without using compression.

My problem is that when Nero imports the .tivofile, nothing shows. Its black, with a little digital flicker now and then, and no audio.

How can this be fixed? Are there any specific links, or steps, to address this?

Thanks, from a Newbie.

Greg -

Correct me where I'm wrong: my SA Tivo saves files as 480 x 480. To make dvd compliant, I have to pick one of the sizes you mention - likely either 352 x 240 or 352 x 480.

also - what's the point of 352 X 480?

I'm a little confused too.

Here are Tivo resolutions
Best: 480x480, 5800 kbps
High: 480x480, 3500kbps
Medium: 352x480, 2600 kbps
Basic: 352x480, 1447 kbps

But Nero shows NTSC Resolution DVD @ 720x480, so doesn't Nero have to transcode any steam you use? This DVD output is the best in terms of the DVD player compatibility. Correct me if i'm wrong here. :confused:

Personally I usually can't handle the poor quality picture i get when tivo records at medium quality. Similar to VHS tape. To my eye, Movies seem especially pixilated in medium or low, where as most TV shows seem to look pretty good in medium. I think it comes down to personal preference, and I tend to be a little picky about the picture. I've been known to go so far as to use DL DVD to allow for higher quality.

As for the time issue i don't see a whole lot of difference in transcoding, except that the file sizes are proportionate to the quality the tivo recording.

I played for a little while this afternoon.

My Tivo is always set on 'best.'

First, I took a five minute clip, saved it as an MPEG2 file (Video ReDo) and made a dvd with DVD Lab.

DVD Lab warned me that 480 x 480 was not dvd compliant, and that some standalone players wouldn't like it.

Sure enough, the expensive SONY in my office wouldn't play it.

Just to be sure it wasn't some other compatibility issue, I redid the dvd on a -r disc. Same thing.

I then transcoded the original file as a 352 x 240 file and burned it, and it played fine.

Then I transcoded it as a 720 x 480 file (TMPG Enc3) and burned it, and again it played fine.

I then brought all four dvds home and fed them to my $35 Norecent (sp?) player.

The player played every dvd perfectly, (including the two non-compliant 480 x 480 ones) which seems to back up what I read, that cheap players tend to be more forgiving.

In terms of quality, the 480s were equal, the 720 x 480 was slightly worse and the 352 x 240 was significantly noisier.

You may be right. This was just a theory we (or maybe I) had here that if the original recording was in one of the DVD standards (like 352x480) the transcode would be faster. Now is it faster simply because it is a smaller bitrate? Or is it faster cause it is compliant already? I don't really know. I do know my transcode time using "Mediums" were a hell of a lot faster, than when using "Highs". Seemed to me more so than a linear proportion, but I need to do some time trials I guess. This was just a gut feeling.

I found this somewhere on the web:
"Official DVD aspect ratios are 352x240, 352x480, 704x480, or 720x480."

Also, I realize 352x480 is not 720x480 that Nero wants to make it.* But maybe it is easier (for the computer) to transcode from 352x480 (an offical ratio) to 720x480 than it is from 480x480? :confused: Just a theory, maybe completely untrue.

As for the time issue i don't see a whole lot of difference in transcoding, except that the file sizes are proportionate to the quality the tivo recording.

You are probably dead right about this. The higher the bitrate; the longer than transcode. Plain and simple. But even so, this was not something I was aware of a month ago. People are always asking for ways to speed up making DVDs, this is one way. :o

Edit: I just noticed Nero wants to transcode to 704x480 (D1) not 720x480. At least that is what I am seeing when I add a (High) mpeg under Target Video Option. This makes more sense to me since 704 =352x2 (simply doubling), maybe lend some truth to the "easier to trancode" theory.

Edit #2: I also just noticed that Nero will transcode directly to 352x480 (Half D1) if the source is Medium (i.e. 352x480). (Which one would assume means no transcode at all!). That has got to account for the huge speed increase!

I just did a time trial with two 1 hour programs (one Medium & one High):

High: ~50 minutes to make DVD (burning to image)
Medium: <5 minutes to make DVD (burning to image)

I just put 4 hours of Medium on one disc and it only took about 20 minutes!

You don't have to record using one of those. Nero is going to transcode it to a DVD compliant ratio no matter what you use. Just seems to me, if it is already compliant it will transcode faster.

[TivoJunkie43]

I think I finally get it!

I decided to use Greg's technique of recording Tivo in medium quality, and burning in Nero @ Half D1 the default setting for NV4... But I still couldn't understand why NV would use Half D1 as it's default setting, when there's still more than enough space on the DVD to make the Default (automatic) @ higher resolution such as "standard play" (which takes longer to transcode BTW)

I also couldn't understand why the last burn I did using a tivo file recorded at medium quality, and burned at Half D1 looks so much better than I expected, better than a high quality recording that's been compressed in Nero, and in so little time.

Tivo medium quality resolution is 352x480, Nero default for this file is "Half D1 (NTSC)" 352x480 resolution. So there's no need for N4 to further transcode the file to become DVD compliant (resolution-wise anyway).

Less transcoding = less video degradation, and less time to transcode as well :up:

First, I took a five minute clip, saved it as an MPEG2 file (Video ReDo) and made a dvd with DVD Lab.



- I was trying a demo of Video ReDo. GREAT for quickly getting rid of stuff you don't want. Does it simply churn out a similar resolution MPEG2 file to your original .tivo?




DVD Lab warned me that 480 x 480 was not dvd compliant, and that some standalone players wouldn't like it.



- I was also thinking about getting DVD Lab. Which version did you need to use?
- Does DVD Lab allow you to make custom menus, etc.?
- With keeping it at native 480x480, is the burn pretty quick?



Then I transcoded it as a 720 x 480 file (TMPG Enc3) and burned it, and again it played fine.

In terms of quality, the 480s were equal, the 720 x 480 was slightly worse and the 352 x 240 was significantly noisier.



- How long does the TMPG Enc transcoding take? I've been trying Roxio EMC8 (pretty much unsuccessfully) and it has to transcode for resolution and is VERY slow (many hours).
- The transcoding, even to a higher resolution, made a worse quality DVD? Did you increase the bitrate as well, or keep it the same?


Thanks a lot. Either of these two methods seems to be the answer to using Roxio (MyDVD) or Nero, which appear to pretty much do the same thing, WHEN they work.

[Scott Atkinson]

Jethro -

VRD does exactly what you suspect it does - churns out an mpeg 2 file (though there are options to save as a VOB and as streams).

Let me make a few comments about quickness, both in editing and transcoding. They pretty much echo what more experienced hands have already reported:

- I use VRD and TMPG's mpeg editors, after abandoning both Nero and EMC.

First, they both work, simply and logically, which is a far cry from the editors in either suite.

Second, transcoding is never 'fast,' but TMPG is highly reliable, unlike the suites, and in my limited experience is faster than both - esp. the truly painful EMC.

DVD Lab is the only program I've discussed I have not registered yet, though I absolutely will in 28 days. I'm using the cheapest version. TMPG's DVD Author is another good alternative - I do own it and use it for most of my non-Tivo related needs.

I'm impressed by the speed of DVD Lab, and yes, it does allow custom menus. The company promotes the program as being for grown ups - as in no forced march thru' templates to produce a dvd. I second that emotion, and since I'm lazy I don't like a learning curve - I got the basics of Dvd Lab in about five minutes, with one check of the help system.

Remember, 480 x 480 chokes some dvd players.

I'm gonna give Greg's plan - encode at medium - a spin.

I have been downloading TiVo programming to ny PC using TiVo desktop. Then I use Nero 6 to create DVDs. The whole process works fine, except that the image is horizontally compressed. It appears as a 1:1 image ration instead of a 4:3 image ratio. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

You have that kinda of problem when using an incompatible MPEG-2 codec.

Here is a "free" one...

Fantastic - thank you! Now I am halfway there. When I play my files in Windows MediaPlayer, the image is no longer "squashed." But when I import them to Nero and try to burn them to DVD, the image is still "horizonatally compressed." It seems that Nero did not recognize the new codec. Is there a way to make this happen?

Thanks again!

Nero uses its own codec. You need to upgrade to Nero 7.

But I used to have success with Nero 6. So I'm not so sure upgrading is a guaranteed fix.

Nero 6 works fine with S2 (540), but not S2DT (649). Many other people have reported the same problem. Upgrading to Nero 7 was the only way that solved my problem with S2DT.

rickturl, do you have the S2DT?

Split at the beginning and at the end of the commercial, and then delete the segment.

IIRC, Nero's editing worked a lot better for me if the .tivo file was first freed to .mpg using something like DirectShow Dump or tivodecode. Don't know why, but I suspect it had to do with the TivoFilter.dll slowing things up.

(Of course, I would highly recommend VideoRedo for any commercial editing.)

YMMV

[angelmw]

When I load it up and try to do anything with a .tivo it doesn't find those files. Is there something else that I need to do? :o

Try this.
In the box that opens when you click on *Add Video Files*, go to the *file type* dropdown and select *''.''All Files*.
You should now be able to *see* the .Tivo files and load them.

I got a new Windows Vista PC that came with Roxio Easy Media Creator 9. Roxio told me I don't need the suite to burn a Tivo show to DVD. I have never done this before and this is my 1st pc with a DVD burner which I have yet to use for anything. Is it hard to do? My friend had me record her something and I was just going to put it on my laptop and take it to her and she was like I have a laptop with a DVD player can't you just put it on a DVD for me to watch? I know I can do it but wasn't sure how? Do I have to convert the file 1st and if so with what program? Or will Roxio do it and just burn it on the DVD? Sorry I know nothing about this and really want to know how. I have never needed to do this before and have always just put shows on my laptop and watched them from there. But now with a burner and my friend needing this show I want to know how. Roxio tech said he was going to e-mail me instructions how and I never got them. I have something that says make muvee and I selected the Tivo file and it says it's analyzing and it will take 34 minutes. So I guess I'll go buy some blank DVD's and try it. If it's in VCD or DVD as long as she can watch it on her laptop that's all that matters.. I hate to waste a DVD if it doesn't work but I have to try it since I have never done it before.. Rose

I am a real newbie at this as well as being not a young person, so please be patient.

I am trying to make a compilation DVD from a number of short movies recorded on mini-DVDs using a Sony Handy-cam (the mini-DVDs are all finalised). I use Nero-vision Express 3. This is the procedure I go through.

1. Drag and drop all of the VOB files from all of the mini-DVDs into folders on the desktop.

2. Open NVE3

3. Click "Add video files"

4. Drag and drop the .VOB files from the desktop folders into the NVE3 working area.

5. Nero transcodes all the videos.

6. Create a menu

7. Burn the DVD.

Everything seems to work fine, the DVD menus and videos play perfectly in both the computer and the DVD player, BUT - NO SOUND. The .VOB files on the desktop definitely have sound (I double click them and they play using PowerDVD) but the transcoded one recorded on the DVD I have burned have no sound whatsoever

It there something simple I am doing/not doing which could be causing this?


My computer is a P4 2.6GHZ with 1GB memory and 160GB HDD

Hands down, the best solution for getting .tivo files onto a DVD is VideoReDo TVSuite. But its not free.

I've used NVE awhile back and it works, but is painfully slow with anything but Tivo's Medium quality because it has to transcode to a DVD complaint format. TVSuite does NOT.

To use NVE, I had the most luck first freeing the .tivo file from its DRM wrapper and making it a normal MPEG-2 file. The old method was using DirectShow Dump. I newer way of doing this is using TivoDecode. I like Tivo Decoder (http://www.gmonweb.com/portal/CodingFun/Downloads/tabid/54/Default.aspx).

The author of TVSuite, Dan203, also pioneered the "Dan203 method". If you can't afford TVSuite, you can use his method.

It involved using VideoRedo Plus + DVDStyler + ImgBurn.

Highly recommend TVSuite though.

[Rose4uKY]

I use direct show dump with my Tivo files and it works nice makes my files mpeg2 and I drop them right on my Archos video player it's nice. I've never made a DVD out of them though. Tivo Decoder sounds nice too but I was told of Direct Show Dump so I use it. Rose

DSD causes audio/video sync problems for me....

[tivarino]

Has anyone in here tried DVD Cloner 5?

[greg_burns]

DSD causes audio/video sync problems for me....

Does it actually create a bad file? Or is it that whatever MPEG-2 codec you are using is problematic?

If you have Tivo Desktop Plus, it uses its own MPEG-2 codec for files with .tivo extensions. I don't have plus, but what happens if you rename the output from DSD back to .tivo? Does it play correctly? That would indicate a codec issue, not a problem with DSD. (Although I've read about many people having this audio sync problem with DSD. I've never had an issue when I used it.)
