I am traveling this week at a conference and I wanted to watch the shows my TiVo recorded while at the hotel. All I had to do was:
- ssh -X homeIP
- run kmttg to download and convert the video on my home PC
- scp the video to my laptop at the hotel
It always amazes me how the entire FOSS stack has come together to make almost anything possible and everything I did today are things I have done for the last 10 years!
If I ran Windows I am sure I could have connected to my home PC somehow (RDP maybe?) and used a similar Windows tool to convert it and then used something like Dropbox to copy the file off but with Linux this ability is baked in and usable by default. I didn't have to do anything except setup SSH for remote access to make this possible.
