Hey all, I added links to the compiled binaries (PPC & INtel) and I've also put some new information in about how to burn shows to DVD.

Let me know what else you need!

Dave Zatz's solution works great! Finally I can offload a bunch of old shows I have been keeping, waiting for TIVO to provide Tivo2Go. For two years plus I could see the .tivo files with my shows, but they were of no use on the Mac. Thanks Dave!!
