I believe there are MFS utilities on one of the linux-based PeeCee
bootdisks that are out there - but having never really investigated
it, I can't say... If it's actually the drive that's TU, it might be
a lot of work trying to get those videos off; if it's the Tivo, if
you already have to replace the Tivo hardware, you might just be
better off trying to find the same flavor Tivo you have, putting the
old drive in the new tivo & continuing on...

Dunno if it helps much, but I hope it helps!
