What is the format of the files?

They are probably in the wrong format. Run them thru Videora (free) to convert them to mpg.
Thanks for the responses Enrique & rambler!
At least in MY case, these are .tivo files I had previously recorded but didn't wanna watch 1 at a time. So I archived them on my pc until I had the time to watch the entire season. Looking in the 'To Do List' it shows the episodes as "Not Transferred" and when I go in for more info it says "This program was not transferred onto this DVR because of a transfer error. You may want to try this transfer again." 3 errors in a row for the same episode, the next episode transferred fine apparently, then the 3rd one same problem.
FYI here's EVERYTHING that happens when I attempt the transfer;
On the "Now Playing" list I browse to the PC the file is on & choose the episode to load, then select "Watch on this TV." It pauses, then tells me that it is transferring onto the Now Playing list of this DVR. Waiting a couple minutes on that screen, I then select Start playing and a new error pops up- top of page "Error playing a recording" and the details are "The TiVo DVR was not able to record this program because there was no video signal on the channel. You may have been trying to record on a channel that you don't receive." So I go to the pc and am able to play the file with ZERO problems... full audio & video, etc.
I gotta free some space up on my pc that last seasons Jericho, Heroes, and 24 are taking up! Any suggestions anyone?
