Tivo desktop talks to Tivo Media Server on port 80/http.
You can use iptrace to discover what it sez. It passes on the DVR
ID, software version, and other data. IPTrace won't show you the
packets of the actual file transfer nor the catalog listing.
When starting Tivo Desktop first it goes 'calls home', possibly
it's a form of verification. Here it goes to 204.176.49.2 which is
Verizon Business. Verizon has nothing to do with my tivo
installation as far as I am aware. So Tivo must use them for
verification.
If you ever get anywhere I'd be interested to see what you come up
with. I've never tried to hack into my Tivo but I know it can be
done. I believe the OS is a linux distro.
What are you going to do with tivo files using OS/2?
