The free trial on the MVP ran out last night so I bought two client licenses, unplugged and replugged the MVPs, and am back in business! Too bad Hauppage didn't agree to license Sage software two years ago...these little units are the best bargain in the media extender category. And now Sage makes them superior. Good work...

One question - is .wma support coming for the MVP? I would hate to have to transcode or re-rip scores of CDs. Sage plays them on the computer - the Hauppage software played them on the MVP - can't you dip that chocolate in the peanut butter and get them to play on the MVP? Thanks - VinceInSeattle.

The reason they played on the Hauppauge software was they were transcoded on the fly. If you look at other posts in this forumn you will see that Sage is planing on implementing transcoding (although I don't know all of the input formats they plan to support) but it isn't working correctly yet. Some people have been able to get their AVI's to work but not all the time if I remember correctly.
