Ok, I'm by no means an expert but you don't mention whether you're 
connecting via serial or telnet. If it's serial, are you sure your 
TiVo's ip address hasn't changed? The TiVo looks like it finds the 
stream and starts to extract in to the fifo's. The PC looks like it
just can't find the TiVo... Also, have you tried one of the other 
apps (i.e. TivoApp, etc..)?
