Tivo and DTA

I have a Tivo Series 2. Now that I have the minibox DTA I can no longer record shows or use the Tivo to change channels.

I have a lifetime plan with Tivo and don't want to buy a new one. How can I make this work with what I have?

The Series 2 does not natively support the mini box.  Do you know how to enable the serial port or a telnet session on your Tivo?  If so, you can hack your tivo and add the codes required to support the mini box.  It's fairly technical.

You can search this forum for some links.

I have added the mini box codes for my ReplayTV DVR.  It works great.

I am afraid I do not know how to enable either, but I'll look for information.

Thanks.
