I know that some german TV Program Newspapers support to have an account there. Then You can just connect to this website and choose the shows you want. (I guess it will work all over the world)
GBPVR could be (like other PVR's already are) added a feature which would wake up and look at that website in intervals. If there is a task, it could schedule recording.
Advantage would be that there is no need to change configuration in Your router and open ports (what ALWAYS is a risk). You do not have to care about DDNS. You just connect to a public website.
PLUS: You save money by saving power consumption, because your PVR can spend more tikme sleeping.
Disadvantage: If You remember only some minutes before the show starts that You want to record it, it may be too late...
