Ahhh yea, easy??????
No easy is to just out the CD in , reboot, and get a finished sign. This isnt easy!!!!!! hehe ------------------

Hehe, the CD serves many purpose. That's why you have to pick which script to run manually.In my case, I could have just boot the CD and run the TivoNet script and done. They do recommend you run your Net with 192.168.1.x and have the Tivo drive plug into your computer with specify port. Therefore, you really don't need to edit the script at all.

Well I got DSL that lets me have up to 32 ip addresses. The DSL modem allocates them and I've been just using Zone Alarm as a firewall. What I was thinking on doing is just hooking up the DSL gateway router up to the hub and trying to run the Tivo thru that. That way I can have Tivo on the 192.168... and the Router will work with DHCP.Plus I like the computers having there own IP. If i use the Gateway for all of them the DSL modem freezes. ------------------

Can you tell your DSL modem to exclude a few IPs for server use? All of the DHCP servers that I've seen allow you do that. Then just edit the script to put in the right IP & GW address.BTW, what's your progress now? I've extracting movies and other video out almost everyday. The web interface makes it just too easy.

LOL. Missed your post. 1. check what's in your /hack/bin directory:
ls /hack/bin/ (same as dir \hack\bin in DOS) 2. if you don't have ls, try:
cat /hack/bin/httpd.tcl (same as type \hack\bin\httpd.tcl in DOS) 3. if httpd.tcl is there, start the web server by typing this:
/hack/bin/httpd.tcl > /dev/null 2> /dev/null & 4. if httpd.tcl is not there, start the ftp server using:
/tivo-bin/tivoftpd Then upload all needed files such all of the ExtractStream files such as ExtractStream, nc, and httpd.tcl. [This message has been edited by Wes (edited 11-29-2001).] IP: Logged |

edit the /etc/rc.d/sysinit and append this to the end of the filehttpd.tcl > /dev/null 2> /dev/null & Do make sure it works perfectly for you before you do it though. BTW, hope you know how to use UNIX's line editor ed. If not, you better copy pine in there too. pine works just like wordstar. IP: Logged |

NO I don't. I'm sinking further into the Linx and unix abyss.

Oops, typo. I don't think there is a tivoftp. It should be tivoftpd. quote:

for FTP, you have to remount the system as RW. You can either do that in the bash prompt, mount -o remount,rw / or use one of the "new" feature of the web interface. The httpd script you have must be very very old. Get the newer one and upload it using FTP. You can download almost everything you've ever need here: http://pvrhack.sonnik.com/tivo/download.asp Get the ExtractStream_2001_06_13 package and it contains a newer httpd that works with ExtractStream. The site also have almost all of the Tivo hacking related sites listed on the sidebar. [This message has been edited by Wes (edited 11-29-2001).] IP: Logged |

Transfer the archive to the TiVo (or, in the case of SAMBA or NFS, make sure the file can be accessed from the TiVo). The archive is relative "hack/bin" If your "hack/bin" is on "/var", then "cd /var". If your "hack/bin" is on "/", then "cd /" (and make sure the root is mounted read/write: "mount -o remount,rw /"). Finally, unarchive: bash-2.02# cat /var/tmp/mnt/ExtractStream-0.1.tgz | gzip -dc | cpio -i -H tar
If "ExtractStream: is in your path, you should be able to enter the command:
bash-2.02# ExtractStream
Without arguments, it will respond with usage information. So I do what you say and get it to w/r. Transfer using FTP now no problem. type what they say: bash-2.02# cat /hack/bin/ExtractStream-0.2.tgz | gzip -dc | cpio -i -H tar Then it says 348 blocks I type in ExtractStream
And it says command not found. I do what thay say and it doesnt work. The documentation through all of this is swiss cheese. ------------------

hehe. 1) cd /hack/bin
2) chmod +x *
3) type ExtractStream and it should now give you some help menu Anyway, this is another way to do it: 0) Make sure your old httpd is exited out. Using your browser to point to your Tivo and select exit.
1) Download the ExtractStream pack and unzip it in your pc.
2) FTP all of those files, ExtractStream, nc, httpd.tcl, etc to /hack/bin
3) Telnet to your Tivo
4) cd /hack/bin
5) chmod +x *
7) Start the new web server just for testing. DO NOT EXIT your bash: httpd.tcl &
8) Point your browser to Tivo. Whatever you select from the browser, your bash prompt should show you the command that it execute there since we didn't use the ">> null" stuff.
9) Choose now showing and right click on any smaller basic quality show and select save as.
10) The bash prompt should have something like "ExtractStream 2134523 1234 1 1234" shows up.

Use winzip in your PC to open up ExtractStream_2001_06_13 and then open up ExtractStream-0.2.tgz within the package and you'll have ExtractStream, httpd.tcl, mplex, & nc.UNIX is case sensitive so be careful.

OK everything is moved over. I get the help menu when i type ExtractStream in.
What i dont get is the web browser now. With the null or without. Any ideas why? ------------------

Did you do #7 to start?
/hack/bin/httpd.tcl &To see if you have any httpd running, you can do:
ps ax | grep http and you should have at least 2 lines showing:
tivosh /hack/bin/httpd.tcl
grep http If you don't see tivosh /hack/bin/httpd.tcl, that's mean somehow your httpd is not started yet. If you have more than one httpd running, it won't work. The easy way is to reboot your Tivo. Don't want to tell you the kill command just yet.

OK it wont run the HTTP. It started out saying file not found. Did a ls /hack/bin and there it was.
So I went into FTP and sent the file again. Now when I try it says permision denied. Then I noticed that httpd.tcl was in the exit prompt. exit 137 httpd.tcl Does this make any sense?? ------------------

When it said file not found, i guess either your path is wrong or the filename is case sensitive and didn't match the right file. After you FTP upload it again, i guess you didn't do the "chmod +x *" again. That's why you couldn't run the httpd script. IP: Logged |
