I think it is working. I have a mysterious blue light on the box but nothing in the NPL. I will wait and see what I get. I was surprised it took longer to start than I imagined.

Yup it works, well at least in the way I think you intend it to work for a test.

I get a show titled test on my TiVo. It is listed as partial and only plays like 30 seconds or something, but I think this is what you intended it to do based on the code I see.

Nice work!!

Ya that is what I have happing as well. It seems like the tivo side is still polling, it seems as slow as unbox etc to me.

I updated my repo with a version of pytivo that supports pushing videos.

You need to add tivo_username and tivo_password to your pyTivo.conf.
After that you can goto http://localhost:9032 and click on your share name. Select the tivo from the drop down an hit "Send to tivo". It seems to work for me.

how do you add tivo_username and tivo_password to the pyTivo.conf file, can you give an example?

also, what is my username and password?

[Server]
tivo_username = username
tivo_password = password

They are what you use on tivo.com. And to "link" your account in tivo desktop plus.

It won't work for me. I pick the share, select the tivo (only one of my tivos shows up) and then click "send to Tivo". Then the web page changes to a white screen and nothing happens. any ideas? this isn't a windows problem is it?

FYI in order to use this new feature you will need to have Python 2.5!

Yeah I think that is all I needed python 2.5.

I breifly got a blank page but that was because I failed to enter the tivo_username and password. It should take you back to the page you were previously at.

I have to wait now and see if this is actually working.

I just found that if you connect to localhost it will tell your tivo to download from 127.0.0.1. So you need to use your real IP for now.

gmd, I updated a log statement to see what data was sent.
Could you try it again.

Armooo, in mind.py is it possible to replace xml.etree.elementree with xml.dom instead since this is in python2.4? I know it is not as easy to use and the code looks worse with it, but mind.py does not do too much xml interpretation.

I have success although I can't play it yet.
