Are you using the IR blaster funtion in Tivo ? - mine came with a plug in low power IR xmitter that you stick on the stb in front of the IR receiver - and shouldn't interfere with a second box - unfortunately this won't stop you changing the channel on the Tivo linked box if you use the remote control.

I solved the problem in a totally different way that is probably not open to you - my Tivo is linked to a dedicated sky box, while my normal viewing is via my NTL box.
