So I broke down and formatted my second partition with Vista to see just how much more functionality I can get out of the media extender. I am rather impressed with Vista's performance in this area (though overall I will still boot to Ubuntu for the majority of my work)... but one thing might change that.
Does anyone have experience with turing their computer into a DVR and playing it over the 360 extender? Right now I am a tv tuner card and a backup HD away from having the capability but I don't want to spend the money to find that I get resolution drops or lackluster functionality.
I just moved back to st louis and am unfortunately stuck using CableUSA (subsidiary of Cox America) for my cable needs and absolutely loathe their DVR box, so if I can turn my PC and 360 into a good combo I might just ditch my crap dvr box all together... just looking for some input.
