If you Google "tivo desktop whs" you will see a number of people that have got this working. I abandoned TD in favor of pyTivo as I found it performs and works better. Something worth considering. You can use MetadataGenerator to create nice program info for videos you serve-up through pyTivo.

There is also a WHS add-in called Tivo Publisher that is similar to TD in functionality and apparently works well. From what I read it is slower in transcoding/transferring than pyTivo, so I didn't bother playing with it.

Also, I have Harmonium installed on the MSS for serving up music. IMO it is a better Tivo music player than what is provided by TD.

The tivo plug in for WHS works fine. There are some weird glitches on music (if you fast forward on a song, it will never move to the next song at the end.)
