Earlier this month a new project was created on Sourceforge called TiVo2DVD.  This promising project, currently offering version .1.0-1 as of March 8, creates and executes the series of commands required to access, format, and burn television shows directly from a Series 2 TiVo directly to a DVD.  The software even support processing multiple shows at once, to a DVD with menus.

tivo2dvd is a command-line script which automates the process of fetching television programs off of a Series II Tivo device, processing them, and burning them to a DVD.

To use TiVo2DVD you must have the prerequisites installed: perl, curl, Net::Tivo, tivodecode, transcode, mjpegtools, and tovid.

There are RPM installation notes for FEDORA Core 6 available from the website.  If what was just written is greek to you, you should probably move along as this project is for TiVo and UNIX geeks!
