I've been using EyeTV to record to shows and love the ability to edit out commercials from my recordings - is that possible with Toast 8/TivoToGo? I can't seem to find that function...

The Tivo files can't be edited.

so, freshburn, what kind of file formats can be edit in Toast 8? I know MPEG cannot be edit. Now, I know Tivo file cannot be edit too.

Thanks.

Toast doesn't edit any kind of video. There are some formats where you can choose the start and end points of a video but there is no other editing in Toast.

Take a look at MPEG Streamclip. It has the ability to cut segments out of MPEG video and possibly many other kinds of video without re-encoding. Toast can use the files saved by Streamclip.

There's a thread here on exporting to iMovie which has some times on ways to get a full resolution MPEG video file from a TiVo source. That video can then be edited by Streamclip.

Thanks, tsantee. I will check it out later.

The "edit" I meant is actually like what you said "choose the start and end points".
