TiVo-VideoReDo-AutoProcessor ("TVAP") is a free utility program for TiVo Desktop users who
use VideoReDo for editing transferred
TiVo files. It runs on a Windows computer with VideoReDo (VRD) and TiVo Desktop installed.
TVAP detects TiVo files being transferred and, when transfer completes, it
automatically and silently runs VideoReDo processes on the files as configured by the
operator in the program GUI. QuickStream Fix (QSF) and/or Ad Detective scans ("Ad Scans")
may be run. Optionally, all three file types (.TiVo, QSF outputs and Ad Scan outputs)
are moved automatically to specified folders after processing is completed.
ALL configuration is via the GUI - NO MANUALLY PREPARED CONFIGURATION FILES ARE REQUIRED!

THE BOILERPLATE:

VideoReDo is a trademark of DRD Systems, Inc. TiVo is a trademark of TiVo, Inc.
TVAP is free and is not an official product of either VRD or TiVo, neither of
which are providing support for it, nor do they officially endorse it.

FEATURES:

- GUI Selection of VRD operations: Default and individual settings for each TiVo file.
Specific files may also be "blocked", so no processing occurs.

- GUI selection of whether DVD-VOB or MPEG2 output file format is produced.
(All with .mpg extension.)

- GUI selection of whether Ad Scan produces only the project (.vprj) file or
automatically applies the cuts to produce a MPEG2 final output file.

- On first startup, reads the Desktop TiVo transfer folder from the Windows Registry.
If not detected, prompts the operator to select the folder to be monitored.

- Totally automatic operation with real-time configuration allowed.

- Status of all .TiVo files in the transfer folder and all configuration settings,
are maintained in an XML data file between program runs, automatically updated
on startup.

- Maintains and displays a log file of processing actions.

- Shows file name, current processing action, and progress bar when a VRD process
is running.

- Many tooltip hints.

- Does not modify Windows Registry.

- TVAP is lightweight: Only uses about 8 MB of memory exclusive of VRD requirements.
Uses less than 1% of processor time when just monitoring for .TiVo transfers.
