[ExtractStream] UK 2.5.5 upgrade help (please)

[Rob]

I'm somewhat new to this myself, but I've found mfs_export works fine; 
extractstream as included in TiVoApp gave me lots of glitches. I'm on 
2.5.5, I don't know about earlier versions, as only had the TiVo a couple 
of weeks, and day 1 was a bit too early to rip the lid off!

My particular situation: mfs_export sends to a NFS share on a FreebSD unix 
machine, which is also shared by Samba, so I can use a windoze box and 
Tyconvert to process it afterwards.

I do find I need to skip the first couple of blocks on some extracts or I 
get continuous errors, but otherwise they are fine!

Rob.
