It was just announced that CableLabs will be allowing software verification of SecurePath for Win7 MCE. This means that any Win7 machine with the correct drivers will be able to use CableCard devices including for SDV (Switched Digital Video), this opens a whole new era for homebuilt PVR's in the US. I'm wondering if MediaPortal will be able to encapsulate the MCE display technology to enable this feature as well? link
