A couple of things I have learned from my experience.
for DVD I do exactly the same as philzgr8, with embedded AC3 5.1 sound. Works a treat, and bec. it's DVR-MS you can fast forward as fast as chapter to chapter searches.
I have yet been able to embed DTS 5.1 sound. The DVD Shrink part works fine, but VideRedo doesn't seem to recognise. (any ideas appreciated).
As for Live streaming. When Connected to a dedicated VMC all channels incl HD work perfectly, without fail. These are connected thru a 1GB switch.
I have an issue with the dedicated VMC and changed it to my notebook (running Vista Home Premium), and had the same Live problems philzgr8 had. Return back to my dedicated PC, again works a treat.
If we could only solve the DTS support from HDD this device is perfect.....well one problem, I can now hear the fan from my Plasma!!!
