[tunanugget]

Are there different versions of the wired mvp? Which one is the "most stable"/"best chipsets"? how do u know which one comes in box?

There are several versions of the MVP, it would be best to search the forums regarding the differences. You can check the version you have when you flip your MVP and a label should read something D3,D3A, E1, etc., but basically the version of your MVP should not affect GBPVR usability. For more info on Hauppauge products, it would be good to visit the http://www.shspvr.com/

If your buying new make sure it's a revision H. You're guaranteed to get the new remote, digital output, and some interesting internal capabilities that haven't even been used yet. If you're buying used, I think there can be faults in any revision.

Wasn't digital out always available in the older ones you just had to add toshlink jack to the rear and solider the rest..

It is possible, I have done it twice, but I had to order the parts, do the work and take the risks involved. So unless you already have an mvp, getting a factory installed model is better which I think is the purpose of this thread.
