IMPORTANT NOTE - ABANDONED PROJECT

Latest kmttg releaseTiVo RPC certificate kmttg is using now expires December 11, 2022 (previous version expires December 2020). However the author has moved on away from TiVo hardware and is no longer doing any additional development.

INTRODUCTION

kmttg is a Java based program I wrote to facilitate TivoToGo (TTG) transfers that can download, create pyTivo metadata, decrypt, run comskip & comcut (commercial detection and removal), create closed captions files and re-encode multiple shows you select from your Tivos all automatically. The program also has the capability to transfer and process shows automatically from your Tivos based on titles and keywords you setup.

You can select one or more shows at a time and then with one click of a button the program will download all the selected items, with the options of also automatically creating a metadata file for pyTivo, decrypting .TiVo files to .mpg, running comskip (commercial detection and removal program), and automatically re-encoding to a more portable format using mencoder, ffmpeg or any other command line encoder of your choosing. The program queues up multiple jobs and displays time, size and speed statistics for ongoing jobs.

kmttg also has advanced Remote Control capabilities including option for backing up season passes to disk for series 4 or later units. See the [remote_control] Wiki page for more details and also see screenshots below.

kmttg also has a Disk Usage analysis window with a Pie Chart breaking down disk usage by category as well as a table summarizing disk use per channel recorded as well as bit rates (a measure of quality) per channel.

Also has ability to capture Slingbox video output directly on the LAN or the WAN. See the [slingbox_capture] Wiki page for details on setting up and using that capability.

This program is known to run on most Windows flavors starting with Vista, Mac OSX, Linux (various distributions) and pretty much any OS supporting Java Runtime Environment. The program relies heavily on 3rd party tools not all of which may be available for a particular OS (all available on Windows platform). It will automatically install many of the required tools for Windows and Mac platforms so you don't need to install them manually.

Not sure if I'm in the right place to ask this, since there's very little here:
I'm having an issue that I first noticed about a month or 2 ago when running AUTOTUNE to change the channels on an OLED Series 3 TiVo; I'm getting the below error;

RUNNING AUTOTUNE FOR TiVo: TIVO Frontroom​
telnet - Failed to connect to host: 192.168.1.107​
telnet - connect timed out​

Any suggestions?

Thanks Much,
Chris
