I'm guessing you have the toshiba 400 something. If so have you made a image of your hard drive? If so, how'd you do it?


PM me. I bought an InstantCake image to upgrade my drive. I may still have it somwhere...

The nice thing about series 1 tivos is that you can stream video from them to your computer and do other fancy things. Series 2 locked this down a bit. But in general tivos are fun to hack, unless you end up having to re-image it multiple times due to weird script settings you implemented, like I did with my series 1.

Series 2 allow streaming just fine. Series 3 currently cannot due to some regulations, but should be enabled by the end of the year.
