I am considering swapping my GBPVR's cable box to the newer one that is HD compatable. I just got into recording from the firewire port, and am working on reencoding to mpeg2/DVD.
Mainly I am interested in ways of channel changing it. I am currently using girder with a serial cable on the older Motorola box, and I would prefer that to IR. Can the USB be used?
BTW, I just found this.

It converts the .ts file straight to a DVD file structure! I would prefer to convert to 720x480 mpeg2 video and audio so I can watch via MVP.
