As you know, iTunes is a free app that runs on Mac, PC, iPhone, iPod, iPad and Apple TV. With it, you can organize and play digital music and videos on your computer easily, but due to file format issues, iTunes can’t support these formats (mostly MKV, AVI, VOB, MPG, TiVo, etc).

Step 1: Download and install the program. Press “Options” button. Switch to “TiVo” tab in Option window and enter TiVo Media Access Key.

Step 2: Click “Add video” or “Add from folder” button to import TiVo files to the program. You can also directly drag the files to the main interface.



Step 3: To import TiVo files to iTunes, you’d better hit the “Format” button to choose “HD Video>>H.264 HD Video (*.mp4)” as the best output format.



Step 4: If you need, you can click “Settings” to set the video parameters like bit rate, resolution, frame rate, etc. Remember the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss.
