Nice piece of kit, although a tad expensive. I’m looking at maybe using one of the Tvix range with GB-PVR to allow LiveTV streaming as well as ripped DVD streaming around the house.
If that is all you want to do you’d could go for a PCH (Popcorn hour) or iStar which are both part of the NMT (Networked Media Tank) range.
Do any of the TVIX’s support apple lossless m4a audio?
I have thousands which I use on my ipod and want to play them through a TVIX device.
