[h3]PyTivo[/h3]pyTivo is both an HMO and GoBack server. Similar to TiVo Desktop, pyTivo loads many standard video compression codecs and outputs mpeg2 (or in some cases, h.264) video to the TiVo. However, pyTivo is able to load many more file types than TiVo Desktop.

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

Should pyTivo run in Docker host mode or bridge mode?

Use host mode for maximum flexibility on file transfers. If you do not need to push files, bridge mode is acceptable.

How do I tell pyTivo which TiVo to look for?

In Global Server Settings, set the beacon to the TiVo IP address followed by listen, for example 192.168.1.5 listen.

What do I need for pushing files from pyTivo to a TiVo?

Set tivo_username and tivo_password if you want to push files. Push requests go through Tivo.com servers, so there may be a random delay before the transfer starts.
