Convert and Transfer Tivo/TS to iPad for HD 720p Playback
I use the old version of Toast 8 with TiVo Transfer to download my favorite shows from my TiVo Premiere to Apple hard drive. However, I could not get the movies to my new iPad via Toast or TiVo Transfer. The file extension for the TiVo videos is not supported by iTunes. Thus, I need to convert TiVo to iPad compatible format.
Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac is the right TiVo to iPad converter for me to convert recorded video to a file that iPad can use. The
Mac Video Converter for iPad does convert .tivo files to .mp4 for iPad. I like setting it up to convert my favorite TV shows and movie, and go to bed, leaving it working. Then sync them to iPad for watching on my travel.

Step 2: Output Settings
I've ended up using small hotshoe adaptors with PC fly leads to plug in to my radio triggers. Some on the market are too thick when using Chimera Softboxes.
The voltage is fine. When I said < Some on the market are too thick when using Chimera Softboxes > I meant that they were too thick to use with the 550 EX's on the Chimera brackets. In other words the combination of these thicker hotshoe adaptors with PC flyleads meant they wouldn't fit in the aperture of the bracket and softbox ring. The thinner ones were no problem.
