Got a Tivo? Get TiVoDecode Manager

Pure awesomeness:

http://tdm.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

Neat little app...just punch in your Tivo IP & MAK, it grabs a list of shows, then lets you download them and optionally auto-convert to MPEG-2 or Quicktime format (direct to iPod if you'd like). Great for archiving your shows or tossing them on your iPod to watch on-the-go! If you need a little more power, check out Toast:

Similar to TDM above, but also lets you edit the show in Toast, so you can remove unwanted commercials and such.

There's a pretty good software walkthrough here that basically shows you how to do everything related to Tivo + Mac: (including transferring files back to the Tivo)

And a good software roundup here:

Oh and a nice little Dashboard widget that lists what shows you have: (has an auto download-decode script, but TDM is better)

Hah this is great, I've been transferring and encoding all of my Alton Brown "Good Eats" episodes for playback on my XBMC! Works great on Plex too
