Stream PC Video to tivo?
Hey guys, ive been looking around this site for a few hours, but I cant find any way to stream home movies I took that are on my computer to my Tivo Series 2 DVR via the wireless connection I have. Is there any way to do this using a windows PC?

I did some searching and found some answers, but have more questions.
Is there a "Go Back" program? I saw that you had to have the server running (I do,) but I dont see my PC at the bottom of the Now Playing list.
I enabled Home Network applications under music photos and more, but I dont see any option to pull the videos from my computer.
What format must files be in, and what folder do I put them in to watch them on the tivo?

I downloaded videora, it seems to be a program for finding files, not modifiying previous videos to mpeg2?
