I have a computer AMD 64 4000+ with two Geforce 7900 GT KO Superclocked cards in SLi mode, 2GB of 2-3-2-5 latency DDR and a about 800GB of hard drive space (SATA running in RAID 1). It's not a question of power, here and it's not a question of space. It's simply that:
1) I don't know how to rip the shows off my Tivo and don't have time to look into it
2) I don't have the software to "sew" them all together with no commercials
3) I don't know how to remove any watermarking that Tivo embeds into their media (I don't want this traced back to my Tivo!)
4) I don't want to do anything more to mod my Tivo that involves shell access into it or rebuilding the kernel (if this is necessary).
5) I don't want to use video capture devices because it takes way too fk'in long (we're talking hours of capturing)
6) I don't know how legal it is to put them on DVD
7) I don't want to hafta deal with people giving me shipping and handling fees
8) I don't want to deal with shipping and handling
9) I don't want to spend the time to download 60GB of shows or more to my computer just to burn them onto CD (or drive swap w/someone) to give them to someone else.
I see so many people posting on this topic - I passed over the encoded shows that I had to the person who was working on this - it took a while (it was only 3 shows, too). I do not have the time, drive, desire or notion to sit here and rip things out.
I give a lot to this community in my spare time. So anyone can badmouth me about my lack of motivation because they think I have a gold mine here - - I'M NOT SAYING ANYONE IS DOING THIS! -- I'm just saying ... it's time I don't have. If someone wanted to come over and sit at my place for 12 hours and setup Galleon or something and save the shows to their computer with an external USB drive and take care of this, you're welcome to do so - you don't even need to come inside, I can hook you up with my WPA key to get on my wireless network and you can grab what you need to grab
If someone wants to help me in exchange for the privilege of doing this, I have a truck that's 90% ready to fire up and still need to work on fuel delivery, cooling and wiring...I'll trade
Right now all my time is going into this truck when I can get to it - so if I ever did get around to helping you guys get these shows, it'll be a little while.
