Problem Transfering from PC to Tivo

I checked the first few pages but didn't see this, so figured I'd post...

I'm running TTG 2.4a, and I'm trying to transfer .mpg's to the Tivo to watch on my TV. I've done this successfully four or five times, but now I'm having a problem.

I move the file into the "My Tivo Recordings" folder in My Documents, and then when I bring up my Now Playing list, I select my network, and then select the file to "Start Transfering Now".

I then get a message saying that it will begin transfering once the other previously scheduled tranfers are done. Problem is, there are no other scheduled transfers. Then I look, and the transfer shows up in my To Do List, but never actually transfers over.

What am I doing wrong here? Like I said, I've transfered several videos without any problems.

Thanks!

 

Anyone? Anyone? BUELLER?

 

I tried that... I closed everything out, then rebooted, then tried the tranfer again, still gives me the same message..."this recording will begin transfering when previously scheduled transfers are completed"...but I still have no previously scheduled transfers... I even uninstalled 2.4 and installed 2.5, and restarted everything, and still get that message.

 

Ok, tried that too...Still hanging out in the "To Do List". Not sure what else to try at this point. I guess I can try running some of the progs. I've seen on here like pyTivo, etc, but I'm not sure I understand all that stuff.

Thanks for the suggestions though...anymore, keep them coming.

 

I gave it a shot, but my network crapped out about 5 minutes into the transfer (sending recording from Tivo to PC).

Anyway, I cancelled any previously scheduled transfers, then rebooted Tivo and my PC, and when I started a transfer (from PC to Tivo) it actually worked for a bout two minutes, then my network crapped out again. I thought it was a fluke, so i rebooted everything again and waited about an hour to make sure my network was staying connected. the network was 100% fine until I started a transfer, then it cut out again.

SO what's going on here? Why does me transfering a video to my Tivo seem to kill my network, forcing me to start the whole process over again? Makes no sense at this point.

 

It's wireless. The process actually worked fine two or three times, so I'm not sure what the deal is now. I'm trying again just to test my theory that starting a transfer kills my internet connection...Two things that should seemingly be unrelated, lol...

 

Any new theories on this one? I have about six episodes of a show downloaded that I was hoping to be able to watch on my TV but the transfers seem to no longer be working. I cleared out my cache, then restarted both the Tivo itself, and my computer, at which point I was able to successfully start a transfer--or so I thought. Two hours later I went to that file in my NPL and it just said it was "Transfering" and yet the time it had was "0.00"--so it didn't actually transfer anything.

This is getting annoying, I have to say. i tried the whole pyTivo thing but I'll be honest, it was beyond me. Any other ideas, I'll be happy to try them out.

Thanks again
