   That sounds like a great system.   
      
   I thought about that for myself a few years back but it would take a lot   
   more work than just replacing the DVDR.   Because all the incoming and   
   outgoig wires go to my bedroom, and all my video and audio stuff is on a   
   bookshelf next to my bed, and the computer is in anoher room. I looked   
   into controlling the computer from my bedroom.   
      
   I copied the HdHomeRun and the SageTV and if I ever can't replace the   
   DVDR or I move to an old-people storage facility, I may do it your way.   
      
   BTW. back to my original post, since I get no output from the harddrive   
   or the DVD, and the foot counter indicates that the HDD is progressing,   
   it means that some output circuit has failed and the harddrive is still   
   working after 15 years of heavy use. I'm very impressed.
