[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 7010"] Raw video at d1 resolutions is 237Mbit/s (assuming 24bit 30fps) so that's definitely not the case. If it does do any decoding on the pc, it probably transcodes to mpeg2 then sends it to the extender. A high bitrate low complexity (encoder wise) stream is easy to create with relatively low cpu usage. I'm still not convinced that's the case though, I assumed that the extenders actually decoded on the settop box, that explains why the very small limits in format compatability. If that is the case, at the very least streaming your mpeg2 tv captures / streams would work like a charm. Also, the fact that Microsoft froze the wmv9 and wma9 specs just before announcing the extenders supports this theory (also in time for the announced consideration of the formats for hd dvd) But I digress, compatability with the extenders would be great, but not the ultimate goal here.
