A Tivo Converter Customer Review From Pavtube:
I have recorded an entire season of favorite TV plays via Tivo box and it have the commercials on it with Tivo. How can I skip them? TiVo DVRs do not offer a commercial skip feature. It’s totally understandable as the commercial is a part of the source signal; but it troubles me a lot when playback the recorded TV plays: I have to pause and skip the ads manually. I used to be fine with that but now my daughter grows up and she’s fond of this: every time when it comes to ads she will cry. I’m totally not computer-savvy but have to look for a good solution.
It’s widely accepted that TV recordings from Tivo box are protected; we cannot edit or change it nor remove the ads within that context. After spending several days browsing the websites, finally I get this Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate to work. It’s very easy to convert tivo files and you don’t need to change any specs; also the ads trimming is quite simple. Moreover, I also convert and copy many Disney Blu-ray movies to my Nabi 2 android tablet, my daughter can watch these movie on Nabi 2 when I'm busying in my yard.
My workflow: Decrypt and remove commercials from Tivo recordings for different purposes on my computer
1. Install and launch this Tivo Converter; drag and drop Tivo recordings to it. Or you can click the small “plus” icon to load Tivo recordings. Pls note the first disc-like icon is to load discs – yes this tool also support converting Blu-rays and DVDs.
2. Submit Tivo Key.
This Tivo Converter requires your Tivo key to play the recordings. (Tips: How To Find Tivo Media Access Key)
Right after you drag the media files to this program, it will pop up a window asking for the key; see this screenshot:
Enter it and import the media files again; it will remember your key automatically so that we don’t need to set it any more.
3. Remove commercials from Tivo recordings.
Now back to the main interface; hit the pencil-like icon on the top to enter the video editor. It’s on “Trim” mode by default. Drag the two small triangles on the progress bar, you can customize the start/end point.
Or you can submit the start and end timing on the below.
Hit “OK”.
4. Choose format and convert.
Find the “Format” drop-down list, there’re many presets for different using. As my only need is to watch on computer and Nabi 2 tablet, the MP4 format is most common so I chose it. Then hit the big “Convert” to start converting Tivo recording or Disney Blu-ray movie to MP4 on computer. After it completed, click “Open output folder” to get converted videos and save it to my drive for playback.
