I use the HD PVR too, and (for the moment) do recording with a custom 
script that uses firewire to change channels on my cable box and scrapes 
from /dev/video0.

My talk about a parser (if that's what James was referring to) was with 
kaa.metadata.  Currently kaa.metadata doesn't understand m2ts files, so 
it can't tell you about resolution, framerate, audio/video tracks, 
duration, etc.  That's what I'd like to see support added for.

We don't need to write full demuxers for playback -- MPlayer already 
does that -- but we need a limited parser in kaa.metadata that can peel 
out that information.

Cheers,
Jason.
