It uses ShowShifter for its PVR software. From my own experience, ShowShifter is a nice app - but you have to have some serious horsepower if you want to get a clean picture at high resolutions (ie projector at 1024 x 768). I can't imagine this box will fit the need of any serious HT people.

My .02 cents...

The screen shoots don't show how you set up recordings. The EPG screen shot just shows the TitanTV web site. You pay for a windows xp licence, but get a computer too under powered to make good use of it.

Interesting, they list Microsoft and all the hardware manufacturerers as partners, yet don't list Showshifter (Home Media Networks Limited) anywhere. Comparing the screen shots it is definitely just using a custom version of Showshifter.
