Converting TiVo to MP4 with Best TiVo Converter

This is guide shares a TiVo converter and presents a step-by-step guide on how to convert TiVo to MP4 losslessly. 


TiVo files are saved by digital video recorders in their proprietary format with copyright protection, so it's technically impossible to play TiVo files on other media devices or media players without format conversion. The following guide shows you the easiest way to convert TiVo to MP4 format, then you can play and share TiVo recordings anywhere you want them. 

To define a .TiVo file, it’s a MPG2 type of file with a TiVo encryption using the Media Access Key. That’s the basic reason why few media players can play it well and some freeware can't handle it. To get the work done, Brorsoft Video Converter is highly recommended. The program is capable of removing TiVo encryption automatically and converting TiVo to MP4 at super high speed with perfect output file quality, which will never cause you any audio and video out of sync issues. The equivalent Mac version is Brorsoft Video Converter for Mac. Just download it and follow the steps to converting TiVo to MP4 in a few clicks! 

How to convert TiVo to MP4 Video Format 

Step 1. Load TiVo files 

Start up the best TiVo converter program, and then click "Add" to import all .tivo files. 

 

Tip: When first loading this TiVo converter, you will need to input your Media Access Key. Simply press "Option" button and switch to "TiVo" tab to enter your Media Access Key, and click "OK" to confirm. 

 

Step 2. Select format for Roku 

Click Format bar and choose Common Video > H.264 Video (*.mp4) as output format. Why we recommend mp4 as the target format is that by packing the videos in mp4, the file size will be reasonable small and the video quality remains. 

 

Tip: If you like, you can click "Settings" to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. Remember bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss. 

Step 3. Convert TiVo to MP4 

Click the Convert button to start encoding TiVo to MP4 video. Then conversion won't take too much time if your video files are not too large. When the conversion completes, click Open to get the converted MP4 videos and now you've get all done.
