Can I watch my Tivo recordings on another TV in my house without buying a 2nd Tivo and subscription.
I just want to watch the recordings on my living room Tivo on my bedroom Tivo. Is there a device out there that will do this? maybe wirelessly?

I use a Terk Leapfrog to wirelessly transmit my Tivo to another TV. It has a remote emitter so you can control your Tivo from the other TV as well. The picture and audio is subject to interference from other wireless devices, but for occasional playback on a smaller TV it works well.

I just ran a coax cable from the tivo to my bedroom TV. (I'm using the S-video from the Tivo to the living room TV) I also purchased the RF remote extender from Weaknees to control the tivo in the bedroom and must say that it works great. I can use it anywhere in my apartment and even outside of my apartment. (I live on the 2nd floor) Hope that helps.
Sure. Use the second set of outputs on the back of the Tivo to feed the second set.
Lots of different options on how to do this if the cable run is impractical for composite cables.
If you want to control the Tivo from the other room, get one of the devices that adds UHF support for the remote - I think Weaknees sells these, as do others. You might also be able to use IR remote extenders, depending on line of site.

I went with AVcast stuff (www.crossbarmedia.com) as it sends everything including remote commands over the existing COAX wire. No chance of interference and a good picture since it takes the composite out from the TiVo and sends it over coax with little degradation
