In order for "those commercials" to be paying for my shows I would have to a) watch them and b) buy something I saw in the ad. Neither of those is EVER going to happen.

What is happening is that other folks are watching the commercials and getting mesmerized by Billy Mays and buying his crap. I'll let them keep that up while I get on with watching my shows.
I pay my $$ to the cable co to bring me television. I feel no guilt whatsoever at not watching commercials that pander to the masses.

As Jere Jones says "Death to ALL Commercials"!!!

Plus, per the USB spec, no one device can ever use more than 50% of the bandwidth.

Slight possible delay

OK boys and girls....

I got impatient and e-mailed hauppauge and actually got a reply.



The sales department is now only willing to say that it will be available some time in April or May.

Perhaps someone here can get clarification on this.

Sounds like the deliver date is slipping from 3/31 to the next few months. I'm disappointed, but not terribly surprised.

Since none of my drives are USB/Firewire and I'm using 6 tuners to record simultaneously now with no troubles I doubt that would be a limiting factor.

Then again, if I'm going with more HD recorders than my present 2hd and 4sd then it could become an issue. Then I guess I'd have to populate the other SATA connection in my server with some more drives and look into locking tuners into recording on specific drives to keep form a possible maxout of any SATA pipeline.

Same boat, if I wait for the hauppauge it will continually be delayed.

If I get a R5000, the card will be released the following week.


Maybe I will just get the R5000, you guys can thank me later.

I'm getting prepared.

Two guys at work recently switched from DirecTV to uverse. Both had DirecTV HD. One has given me a samsung HD receiver and the other guy will be giving me one next week.

I'm anxious!

Good job! Better install them quick, as I think your friends will want to go back pretty soon. Uverse has shall we say, it's issues.

BTW, here's a sample from the mysterious device. Folks can get a headstart on some of the integration effort... :-)

I tried playing this on the HD extender, and it's just a black screen with no audio.

VLC didn't fare much better. Frozen/scrambled picture, choppy audio, and then it crashed VLC.

Try the latest vlc code from the SVN. It supposedly works ok with it.

I just tried today's SVN of VLC and 1.0RC2 of Mplayer, with no succes. Both programs crash. I do get a crunched screen with garbage with Mplayer just before it crashes.

I was able to play the file fine in WMP using the Cyberlink demuxer and decoder. Seeking didn't work well, but I think that's a general issue with the cyberlink H.264 decoder.

Bother. As long as the delay is a function of last minute bug-killing and not an RIAA/MPAA issue, then I suppose it's OK. Now, if they could just release Linux drivers ....
