Not being thickheaded here( or maybe i am ;-))just trying to understand.
Ok so is it the tivo sw that allows you to copy the files off the recorder
to the hd or those 3rd party apps?  It would seem that if tivo was copy
protected their sw would NOT allow you to copy stuff off the recorder to a
remote hd.  However maybe the files are encrypted or something which means
they can only be played off the tivo device (loaded back to the player and
played again).

If that's the case then the tivo sw provides all the moving files back and
forth/naming them etc.  But that third party app cracks it for general
playback.  yes?

if so, what 3rd party app do you use?
