i bought a series 1 tivo sony
it has a wireless card no modem lifetime service
works great came with tivo web
and have been using tivo web and ty tools to dowload shows to pc
been using tivo web to stream shows to pc
recently been having trouble with tivo web stramming
i can do it sometimes on my xp machine, but sometimes it just sits and says waiting when i put in the tivo ip adress
on my vista macine it never loads now just says waiting
once it said loading, but never opened
i've pinged the ip adress and its good
whats up why can't i open tivo web on my vista laptop
and why does it work only sometimes on my xp machine?
thanks

TW and TWP are mostly single threaded, so if they're busy with something else (like a transfer that didn't exit properly), they'll accept new connections, but never display anything... that sounds like what you're experiencing.

that being said:
> can you telnet?
> have you tried to reboot the tivo?

what says "waiting"?
with vista streaming, it's probably either a firewall issue or the program you had been using to stream doesn't work well with vista (if it's cygwin, you may want to look into updating the dll)

i've turned off all firewalls
and i just use tivoweb to stream the vieo
use to work on vista
its the same thing i do on the xp laptop
i'm able to connect to ty tools and transfer video to my laptop on the vista machine.
when i put in the ip adress of the tivo into the browser it just says waiting.
once it said transferring, yesterday, but nothing ever came up
thanks

putting the IP to get the tivoweb home page (like http://192.168.0.4)?

are you using IE7? Tried any other browsers?

Did anything happen between the time it was working, and now?

p.s. if you've got IM (AIM, Yahoo! chat, MSN), could you contact me there?
