I am currently a user of WMC 7, and I am thinking of switching to MP. However, I am very comfortable with WMC and I want to make sure that everything I am accustomed to doing can be done with MP. First, what is the quality of the HD recording? I record programs in either 720p or 1080i through my Hauppage ATSC tuner and I am very pleased with the quality. Is it the same on MP? Also, what kind of format is used? I believe that recordings are saved as TS files, but isn't that just a container?
Another related question is concerned with the ability of MP to record two programs simultaneously on a single tuner. How is this done, since WMC cannot do that? Does this have any impact on the quality of the recording versus recording only one program?
