Hey Dan ! Thanks a lot. Working for me on Mac Pro (2009), Mac OS 10.11.6

BTW: I meant to say this previously (previous working editions of pyTivo)... I cannot get over how fast the transfers are compared to, say, TiVo Transfer... really a great piece of work!

Issue with "odd" characters:

I tried pulling a file to my Bolt and pyTivo/TiVo wouldn't let me select it.

The file was named "Hannibal-S02E11-Kō No Mono.mpg"

I was able to pull the file after replacing the "ō" (Unicode U+014D) character with an"o".

I believe @moyekj has kmttg replace "odd" characters in the kmttg download process to prevent this from happening. The issue arises when renaming episodes as they are named in theTVDB. A TVDB user could potentially use any unicode character when naming an episode.

I'm sure there are other odd characters that would prevent pulling shows.

Is there some way for pyTivo Desktop to compensate for this?

I have just completed a new version which now includes a full feature UI called "pyTivo Desktop" which includes TiVoToGo support. I hope it works well for everyone. Please let me know if you have any trouble with it...

I just stumbled into finding your great program Dan. Everything is installed and looks good. I have a couple questions that I was hoping you could help with.

1. I left the set-up as defaulted, I am able to transfer files (.tivo) to my network drive. I was then wanting to decode the Tivo files to MPEG's. I copied the tivo-libre-0.7.4.jar file into the bin directory (I also copied TivoDecoder.jar). Under the "TiVoToGo" tab I then clicked on "Decrypt with tivo-libre" and saved. When I go to download I get a message that the download is added to queue. I see "1" in the download queue counter. However the download never start. I click to view progress and it just sits at 0 bytes. Is there something I've done wrong in the set-up or any suggestions why the download isn't starting?

2. When I save off the configuration changes the pyTivo Desktop restarts pyTivo. I then get an error message "Error connecting to pyTivo! Verify pyTivo is running and retry". I click on the tray and see the pyTivo with red X. I click on Restart and then after a couple of seconds I click on "Open pyTivo Desktop". This is a work around but shouldn't the program automatically restart pyTivo?

1) You don't need to put tivolibre.jar into the bin folder. A copy is already included as an exe. Putting that there could actually be causing a problem.

2) This could be related to #1

Try deleting the tivolibre.jar file you put in the bin directory and see if that works. If not you can look at the log by opening the About dialog, and clicking show log. It sounds like it's crashing somehow so there should be some sort of error listed.

I had tried the copy/decode initially without the tivo-libre.jar file, but since it didn't decode/copy I put the file into the bin directory. I've removed the file once again, restart pyTivo and it still will not process. Here's the log file:

I see there's a warning that tivodecode not found, is that the problem and do I need to get that file from another source?

Thanks

I set up a Music share with pyTiVoDesktop. My Roamio Basic can see all the video shares but not the new music share. I've rebooted my computer and the Roamio a couple of times. Any ideas? The Roamio is currently on 20.7.1.RC2-USA-6-846.

You do have music in the folder it's pointed at right?

Try temporarily disabling your firewall. Then stop and restart pyTivo and see if that helps.
