wmcbrine / pytivo

pyTivo is both an HMO and GoBack server. Similar to TiVo Desktop pyTivo loads many standard video compression codecs and outputs mpeg2 video to the TiVo. However, pyTivo is able to load MANY more file types than TiVo Desktop.

H.264 levels higher than 4.1 aren't supported by TiVo hardware; detect and transcode if needed #16

This patch requires the separate ffprobe program distributed with ffmpeg to be present; if ffprobe is not available, it will assume all H.264 streams are supported (the previous behavior).

It's possible Roamio hardware supports more advanced H.264 streams; I only have Premiere hardware to test with here.
