My RN422 longer sees saved Tivo recordings after latest firmware update
I have a Tivo HD and a Tivo Premiere. Both are activated for archiving on my new RN422 and both have been working fine. Since the latest firmware update (6.9.3), however, both Tivos are still saving ...

Yes, it just works. Once you set Tivo to find your NAS and you have set up your NAS for DLNA, either the folder or directory, you put your videos in and Tivo will do the work so you can view them easily. I set it up and viewed a couple of videos a couple of times but haven't tried it lately. Hopefully it still works. I am behind on my video file organizing but once I get back to it I'm sure I'll have the free time to lie in bed and view my vids on the Premiere once again. I've recently bought a Bolt though and have been setting it up to take over the recordings from the old FIOS set top box. Keep in touch, let me know how you do. It should be easy enough to do. The NAS might be a bit harder to configure than the Tivo. Depends on how quick you can pick up how to do it. I know it took me some time and I didn't do them both at once. I had set up the NAS DLNA Video folder long before I configured the Tivo. It worked the first time though and that was that.

thanks for the great news. i like to find 1st hand experience at least one person did what i want to do . ive just started shopping for a NAS because my single disk Mycloud has been wonky lately and I wanted a nice RAID setup for backup ; but if i can stream vids from the NAS its worth the big investment to offload there instead of my laptop doing the work and taking up that space.
setting up pytivo on my laptop took a very long time as well as tivo working with the laptop. but hopefully through that experience a NAS would be not so bad.
GL with the bolt. i read on another forum that there were issues with newer tivos so i'm glad i have an ancient one. i just use for OTA anyway.
i'm sure in another place on this forum is the answer but i was wondering if you had an opinion on what kind of drives should go in the readynas? i did see on amazon they had a nas with some already installed but unsure what kind they were so maybe best to buy diskless and add something thats known.
