Toast 9 keeps crashing when converting Tivo files to VIDEO_TS. My end goal is a M2V that I can author myself in DVD Studio Pro. So, my plan had been to create disk image files with Tivo file converted to VIDEO_TS. Then convert to M2V and reauthor.

Toast has other plans (and maybe this isn't the right way to go).

I'd like to just convert from Tivo files to M2V or even MOV. I don't really want to deal with Toast and all of that. But I'm not finding any reliable tools.

What do you all suggest?
