Default TiVo ToGo and WMP 11

When I originally installed the latest version of TiVoToGo, which allows
programs recorded on Tivo to be tranferred to a PC and played in WMP, I got
video but no audio. I downloaded a new audio codec and things worked fine.
I recently tried to play a TiVo recording on my PC and now have audio but no
video. Along the way I upgraded to WMP 11 (I believe when I bought my
Toshiba laptop last May that Vista Home Premium was shipping with WMP 10). I
have tried resetting video codecs and other things, to no avail. I am
beginning to wonder if there is an incompatibility between the TiVo
recordings and WMP 11. I would like to try "downgrading" back to WMP 10 but
I can find no instructions on how to uninstall WMP 11. Does anyone know how
to uninstall WMP or if I can install WMP 10 over WMP 11?

Thanks

It was never possible to run WMP10 on Vista, so that's a red herring here.

What's the file extension? What video codec do the files use?

Not so much a reply as another question. TIVO recordings won't play
under WMP 11 in Vista Home premium. Are there any new solutions or ideas
as to the following error ?

I have no need to upgraded to the TIVO to go Plus edition.

|"Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not
support the file type or a required codec might not be installed on your
computer"

Thanks

I'm having the same problem. If anyone has a clue as to how to clear this
up, please post.
Thanks
