==Description==
[[File:Pytivo_logo.gif]][http://pytivo.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/PyTivo pyTivo ] is a way both an HMO and GoBack server. Similar to send vidoes, music[http://www.tivo.com/desktop/ TiVo Desktop], pyTivo loads many standard video compression codecs and movies to a series 2outputs mpeg2 (or in some cases, series 3,and HD tivo that doesnt support DLNAh. It can convert most 264) video files but you might have to install the TiVo. However, pyTivo is able to load many more codexs if you cant view the videofile types than TiVo Desktop. '''NOTE:''' This was tested on Amahi 7 (Fedora 19).
