How do you download video off of TiVo to save them onto a computer?
whyhellothere asked:
My diving team has a camera that is connected to a TV which is hooked up to a TiVo box so that after your dive, you can watch how it looked.
We have alot of funny videos where people have smacked or fell off the board and I would like to put them my computer so we can always have these videos. Also, I want to put them on YouTube
How could I transfer these videos to my laptop?

Hi whyhellothere,
It is a bit of a hassle to connect it but I record my TiVo stuff to my computer and then burn it to DVD.
I use DVD Xpress. With DVD Xpress you can transfer your video to your hard drive and then edit it if you desire. DVD Xpress comes with basic video editing software. I got mine at Sam’s for $59.95. They are cheaper now. You can look at one & read about it here -
I saw a newer model at WalMart recently. It was the DVD Xpress2. I can’t remember what it cost.
You connect the composite output of your TiVo into the DVD Xpress and connect the DVD Xpress to your computer via a USB cable.
