Does anyone know how to play back Tivo to go files on a MAC. I
download the programs from my TIVO to my desktop PC. Then I file
transfer them to my MAC iBook G4. The problem is I cant play them
back. I use windows media player for MAC and it doesnt work.

Any suggestions.

You could try the GraphEdit method that has been mentioned here
extensively to convert from .tivo to .mpg while still on the PC.

I don't own a Mac but FWIW .mpg files play just fine in Linux. Including
those created in Windows using the method I suggested above.
