I've been running pyTivo fine for months, with version (SubFoldersBranch Version: 01-04-08). No problems, subfolders working perfectly (with Hack83 enabled), bestest software of the last few years, etc. Last week my Tivo's HD died. Tivo was quite decent, shipped me a reconditioned unit for $50. Connected, ran through setup, working. Only problem: pyTivo feed not working, all the shares were stalling out when I tried to load them off the NPL.
After much tinkering, I found they were stalling because they were trying to load every file in every subfolder's subfolder's subfolder to the root NPL (with my directory structure and video library, that's a lot). And not just for the root. Any level in the tree you load, you see that folder's contents plus the contents of every level beneath it. This never happened on previous Tivo unit and the only thing that changed was the Tivo itself. I made no changes to pyTivo or my PC's.
I forced Tivo to make several connections to their server, it installed a software update last night, and its rebooted about a dozen times.
I also scragged pyTivo off my PC and replaced it with KRKeegan's latest version for download (pyTivo-v2008.04.14.exe). Went with fresh default pytivo.conf, same problem. Tried enabling hack83, autoshares, both at once...no help. Both hack83 & autoshare's individual features would work but they didn't fix the Lets Display Every Subfolder's Files problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try turning folders on on your TiVo.

What you're seeing is the normal and correct behavior for a "Recurse=Yes" request. And you get such a request when grouping is turned off in the Now Playing list.

<cough> ...yes...folders. Ahem. I...er...knew it all along? Heh. Worked, thank you. Smile New unit hadn't recorded enough yet for me to notice they were off by default.
