Tivo on Media Center Extender?

Okay, so I have an Xbox 360 & think I have it set up as a Media Center Extender. Interestingly it shows me the Tivo Desktop as an optionto select, but won't actually let me select it to look inside or view any of the shows. On the computer it asked me if I wanted to choose that as one of the files it showed (well, duh? of COURSE I do!) & it does happily show it. But it won't actually let me access it.

Now, in its own documentation it claims that it should run an MPEG-2 codec so theoretically it should have no problem playing the .tivo files right? So, any hints as to why it might not be working? Is anyone watching their Tivo through a Media Center Extender?

Maybe it will work if the .tivo files were freed to standard mpeg files. Google DirectShowDump and see if that works with your xBox. I'm in the market for a SA media extender (buffalo, linksys and netgear are begining to release these).
