Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade tivotogo-plex -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade tivotogo-plex -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Description

This Plex plugin uses the TiVo To Go API to watch a stream off a TiVo or to download a recorded program from the TiVo. It requires a Series 2 or newer TiVo with an ethernet connection. The Plex Server needs to have a high speed connection between itself and the TiVo.

Q: What would I use this channel for?

A: You browse to a show on your TiVo and watch it without downloading it to the Plex Server.

Q: Can I download something from the TiVo it to the Plex Server using this channel?

A: Yes! If you enable the TiVoToGo service, and fill in a folder name, the channel will have extra entries to allow you to download the content.

NOTE: You should create a library on your Plex server which points to the same directory which you are downloading the file into. If you name the Plex library "TiVo To Go" it will automatically get refreshed when downloads are initiated and when they complete. If you decide to name the Plex library something different simply add that name in the TiVoToGo preferences.

Requires:

Linux, OSX or Windows Plex Server (No ARM Processor NAS support)
On Linux, OSX or X86 NAS requires curl be installed
To Do:

Use the urllib instead of curl
Stop using /tmp/cookies.txt
Use dynamic sockets and a fixed URL for the live stream video
If the community support for the MPEG-TS improves, add MPEG-TS support, for now it only works with MPEG-PS
Installation Instructions

Install curl if you don't already have it
Copy TiVoToGo.bundle to your plugin directory
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins
Windows: C:\Users[user]\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Plug-ins
Linux: /var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins
Make sure to update the plugins settings
Enter your Media Access Key from the TiVo
Enter a IP address for the TiVo if the Plex Server is on a different subnet and then exit the channel and enter it again.
If you want enable the To Go offline download check the box and fill in a directory that is writable by the plex user.
Contribute to the project if you like! :-)

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
