TiVo file support?
Posted: 04 Dec 2006 20:01
Someone has just released source code which allows decryption of TiVo files on all platforms...
http://tivodecode.sourceforge.net/
any chance this could be encorporated directly into VCL so we don't have to decrypt the files to MPEG before they can be played back?
That code should be DMCA safe since it does not actually crack TiVo's encryption. It uses the same Media Access Key scheme TiVo uses for their own DirectShow filter on Windows. Then again IANAL, so I could be wrong.
