Uninstalling & Clean Installing Mac2Tivo

To completely uninstall Mac2Tivo, trash the Mac2Tivo folder, and then remove the following files:

  • ~/Library/Application Suport/Mac2Tivo/MediaData
  • ~/Library/Preferences/com.roxio.Mac2TiVo.plist

As of 2009, Mac2Tivo re-encodes all the sound to PCM Stereo.  Since PCM Stereo is an uncompressed Audio format, you will notice a significant file size increase…  And as a side effect, surround sound will be converted to standard Stereo audio.

Once the application is removed, and the preference files are removed, a simple re-install will be equivalent to a clean install.
