I Just Learned Something About TiVoToGo
Like the good husband that I am, I recently handed the remote over to my wife so that she could finish watching season one of 24. When I did this, my intention was to watch the Super Bowl on my laptop using TiVoToGo. Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that you can’t transfer a show to your PC while it is still being recorded. I guess I should have expected this however, I had hoped that I would be able to stream the game to my laptop while it was simultaneously being recorded to the TiVo. Now I need to either stay up late tonight and watch the game or seclude myself to the small TV in the bedroom. I knew I shouldn’t have been so easy :).

Yeah, TTG is a file copy and it can’t handle it until it is done. Probably to make sure the drive reads don’t mess up the drive writes on the same sectors as it is recording.
