Journal gwyrdd benyw's Journal: Tivo log: MacOS X software
Step 2 of the tivocanada.com instructions are completed, namely installation of xmltv, guidedir, xmltv2tivo and headend-utils.
The hardest part by far (and only because I seem to make things far more complicated than they need to be -- see previous post re hard drives for another example) was getting the perl modules installed. I installed fink in order to make the perl5.8.0 installation easier, and then had strange compilation problems with some of the modules so decided to entirely back out of fink -- I didn't delete the
I had difficulties getting XML::Parser installed, due to the expat lib not being present -- google helped here, and downloading/installing expat manually(1.56.6 compiles okay, although there are lots of warnings) solved that problem (or "fink install expat" would also work I guess). However, I still can't get Tk to install, but I don't think it's needed until much later when I want to get into video extraction.
To do:
- step 3 in tivocanada.com (creating headend, slice files etc)
- actually install Tivo software on tivo and power it up, see it work and all that fun stuff
- install shell and other tools on tivo
- figure out how to get the tivo connected to my computer (I still don't have a turbonet card; haven't looked into the serial PPP stuff yet or now to plug the serial cable into the G4).
