well bummer then. Thanks for the explanation, guess I might just take the plunge and go HTPC with network tuners

Yeah when I first read it too I thought cool streaming! LOL, but Comcast does have a streaming product but it costs more and you can do it with a slingplayer for free.

I just want to fling video around the house. And with the 200N dvr box I also can't download recordings off it via Firewire the way I could with the other boxes.

And it's acting up, sometimes it takes forever to switch between channels and the A30 update did nothing to mitigate this. I had recordings disapear with 50% free space. Odd thing is I can see them on the Xfinity site but not when I browse the DVR >.

I'm contemplating an AMD APU small form factor PC with either Ethernet or USB tuners and Media Center
