Setup Linux for TiVo video to iPad video conversion

1) Install TiVo File Decoder

Download source from http://sourceforge.net/projects/tivodecode/files/ the 0.2pre4 version works fine for me.  Extract the source and build it.

./configure
make
sudo make install

Use "which tivodecode" to make sure it was installed properly in /ur/local/bin

2) Install Mencoder

Enable Medibuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
sudo apt-get install mencoder
