Find a tivo's IP address through code
This shouldn't be that hard of a problem. the tivo accepts no less than three different protocols to broadcast this information. Bonjour, Discovery, and a third one it uses to show custom apps. the tivo handshakes with app servers. I have been unable to find any information on any of these protocols, let alone how to program for them in vb.net. If anyone has a link, or can explain it, please post it. I am writing a custom tivo control program from my pc. Currently i have it using the pc keyboard to type on the tivo, but i would like this program to be able to find the tivo automatically.

Not sure if iTivo would be of any help?
Re: Find a tivo's IP address through code
if i could actually get the source code link to work, possibly. But doubtful. It finds the tivo using bonjour, and that is amazingly easy on a mac to use. There's a simple script command for it.

I have asked on their forums about it! On the source area of the site it says that non-members can download the code by using the provided url. However, when I try I keep getting connection fails because the connected failed to respond.
Edit:
I received this link in response to my question!
