Just in case you didn't know (as some people at UKHA2003 didn't) it is
now possible to stream tivo recordings directly off a Tivo straight to a
PC and play on the PC. No re-encoding or extraction is required.

It is also possible to play .ty files previously extracted locally on a
PC without any re-encoding at all. Just fire up the player and play your
ty files.

I've tried the second option and provided you've got a decent PC spec,
it works a treat! Not tried the 1st option but people appear to have had
success, I think one guy got 2 or 3 concurrent streams going!

The thread for this (and associated files) is:

Another useful utility is now able to extract and replace .ty files from
a Tivo using a standard ftp client!

Not tried this myself.

Enjoy
