At my apartment, I only have the basic channels (up to 22 or so). At a
house, I have expanded, but have not tried the HDHR there. I have two
PVR150's at the house and am able to tape everything.
I don't know about the compression. My understanding is that the HDHR
receives the raw MPEG stream and just sends it to the server. There is
not encoding like the analog cards.
