I was wondering if any of you can tell me if it is possible to use one of the legal movie subscription services (Cinemanow, Movielink, etc.) with GBpvr. I use an Xcard for TV-out and Wintv-250 for Capture.
I know the Xcard is mostly designed for mpeg playback, but it can play certain avi's as well. I'm pretty sure Cinemanow uses the wmv codec for their films and at present the Xcard can play these types of files. I don't know about Movielink.
There may be a way to re-stream the file but I don't have the knowledge and my PVR pc is kind of old and slow (350 mhz PII with 320 mb ram).
Any ideas how I may be able to view legal movie downloads with this setup? Thanks!
