TUAW reader creates TiVo-to-Go to Mac Tutorial
Over at Zatz Not Funny, faithful TUAW reader Dave has written up a quick-and-dirty TiVo-to-Go to Mac tutorial.
For those who have been following closely, TiVoToGo DRM has been cracked, allowing transfer and decryption of .tivo format files to your Mac or Linux desktop.
The hack depends on identifying and using your personal Media Access Key with the TiVo Decode open source software. Dave gives the essential run-down of the steps you need to take to de-gunk your files.

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!!

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!
