Setting up tivo for streaming

First download and extract the modified tivoweb ui module, put it into your tivoweb modules directory (/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl/modules) and restart tivoweb.
This adds the "view" link onto your list of recordings.

Now download the vserver binary which does all the actual work on the tivo machine.
Put it in /var/hack, and start it:

% /var/hack/vserver >/dev/null &
