[QUOTE="GadgetMan, post: 159060, member: 48865"] Hey there morphjk. My wife enjoys it somewhat. She was relunctant at first, but is warming up to it. The features that I think she likes are: - Electronic Program Guide (EPG), allowing you to pick a show, and hit record. - Watching recorded TV easy, and allowing to jump forward 30secs, 1 min, etc - Music playing. Allow to play all songs from an artist, album, etc. - Viewing pictures from our Dig camera - Playing backed up DVDs for our son's want to watch DVDs. It's easy, and no fetching DVDs all the time. The feature I'm looking forward to most, is the inclusion of commercial skipping. An application called comskip, will look for ads using different techniques, and creates a file containing the blocks of the ads. Soon (I hear), MP will read these files (when generated for a recorded program), and allow you to skip the commercials, leaving the original recording intact. I'm currently trying comskip out with different settings to get it to work well with Aussie TV. [/QUOTE]
