Thanks. I have added code to Playitsam to detect versions 1.3.x and 2.5.x
of the TiVo software, and I run switcherstart on the 2.5.x platforms.

A tplayitsam binary for the TiVo is at
http://minnie.tuhs.org/Programs/Playitsam

with this modification. Could a few people test the -M switch with
this version and confirm that it works on 2.5? I've tested it on 1.3
with no errors.

If anybody has a system which isn't 1.3 nor 2.5, could they send me their
/etc/build-version file?

Thanks,
Warren
