Looking on the Quicktime import format list, I don't see .tivo files (TiVo ToGo). However, since they are just wrapped .mpeg files, does Quicktime recognize them? I suppose the DRM could just be stripped, but I'd like to keep things both simple and honest; taking shows I've legitimately recorded and putting them on my iPod.

This probably isn't the forum for a in-depth technical discussion on the subject, but I thought Make readers might also be interested in getting their already recorded TV shows in their new video iPods.

Thank you for the useful info.
I think 'Wondershare iPod Video Suite' is also a good choice. You may download for a trial. Here is a detailed guideo about this software.
