[ExtractStream] Stand alone too? Re: TiVo freeze with mfs_export

Grant,

I've noticed that the Tivo's are dramatically underpowered. When your 
extracting is the Tivo performing any other activitie? Sometimes 
killing off myworld helps. It also depends on the unit. I also had a 
Dtivo that the Power supply was on the lower limit. Just adding a 
ethernet card brought the supply down enough that the unit would not 
power up. Remove the card and the unit worked find. Installed it in 
another unit and had no problems. The QA on these units are minimal 
at best.
