Uhhh... because he has *4* of them. ;)

Mythtivo still works.  I just built it yesterday on my FC5 x86_64 box.
Had to make some changes to mythtivo/mythtivo/showlist.h in order to get
it to compile, and I had to rebuild mplayer from the greysector source
rpm in order to get vstream support.  After that, the plugin itself is
able to retrieve show listings from my S1 Tivo just fine, as well as
play the recordings...
