I have Tivo to Go and can get shows to my computer. Is there an interface that allows me to convert the codex to one compatiable with an iPod and then download my Tivo recorded TV shows to my iPod?

I'm not incredibly technical, so don't be afraid to be simple.

There are a couple different ways. I use TV Harmony (go to tvharmony.com to download) - it's easy, free and works for me.

For $25 Upgrade to TiVo Desktop Plus (http://www.tivo.com/4.9.4.1-2_win.asp)
"Upgrade the free version of TiVo Desktop to TiVo Desktop Plus and automatically convert your TiVoToGo transfers for iPod, PSP, Treo, Nokia, and other portable devices that support MPEG-4 or H.264 video."

I have TiVo Desktop setup to auto upload a couple of weekly series, convert for the iPod and puts the converted video in the iPod directory for auto syncing the next time the iPod is connected.

:up: for tivo desktop plus.

I had tv harmony before tivo desktop plus came out, and while I like those guys, it was nowhere near as easy or reliable for me.

Google for tivopod3

Works FANTASTIC on linux (and pretty well in Windows) and provides a podcast you can subscribe to on your Itunes.

You'd use this instead of TiVo Desktop.
