开源软件介绍(OpenSource Introduction):

cTiVo is a free Mac application to download shows from your TiVo and convert them to many popular formats and devices. Its goal is to be extremely simple to set up and use, taking full advantage of MacOS, but very flexible.

cTiVo provides complete hands-off operation: once you choose or subscribe to your shows, everything else is automated. For example, after you've set it up, every morning, you will find all your favorite shows from your TiVos loaded onto your iPhone or iPad. And although using cTiVo is very easy, you also have complete control over what it does.

The current release is here: https://github.com/mackworth/cTiVo/releases/ Please let us know of any problems or suggestions at Issues.

Automatic Download and Conversions

  • Auto-discovery of all your TiVos (using Bonjour).
  • Drag/drop and contextual menus for ease of use; submit, reschedule, delete all by dragging the shows.
  • Download queue for batch processing, restored on restart.
  • 'Subscriptions' to your regular shows: automatically downloading shows whenever new episodes are available.

Documentation:

Compatibility:

Current release of cTiVo is fully compatible with MacOS Monterey (12.x) back through Sierra (10.12). This (3.5.3) will be the final release for MacOS Sierra (10.12). For MacOS El Capitan (10.11), final release is 3.4.5 For MacOS Mavericks (10.9) and Yosemite (10.10), final release is 3.4.4

cTiVo works with TiVos all the way back to Series2. However, Series2 and Series3HD TiVos do NOT support Transport Stream for download, which is necessary for any channels/shows transmitted by your cable company in H.264, which is true for most cable companies now. As Minis and Streams do not store their own shows, cTiVo only supports Remote Control for them.

RPC Certificate: TiVo's RPC Certificate in versions 3.4.4, 3.4.5, and 3.5.3 will expire in May 2024, although we expect we will be able to get a new one before then. Prior versions will expire in December 2022, and the features that require the RPC connection (marked below with a asterisk * ) will not be available. The primary cTiVo functionalities (listing the Tivo's shows and downloading them) should continue regardless.

Initially, TiVo's Edge DVR was incompatible with any PC/Mac downloads, but TiVo finally fixed this with software release 21.9.7.v3-USM-12-D6F.

cTiVo is free to use, and the source is available for anyone to browse and contribute to.
