My ultimate goal is to be able to record in HD from all of the devices in my house including set top boxes and gaming consoles using XBMC as the front end of the PVR software solution. Now, I'm not sure if I should buy the HD PVR 2 for the better resolution/connectivity options and hope that they add WMC support later on, or buy the older model (1212) for the WMC compatibility and settle for 1080i/720p recordings from component devices (no support for non-HDCP HDMI). When I saw that the new HD PVR 2 was going to be able to record both component and non-HDCP HDMI content in up to 1080p, I was ecstatic. Rather than purchase a separate IR blaster in order to allow me to use my current tuner thru WMC for recording SD content from a STB, I figured that I would just purchase the HD PVR w/ included IR blaster, allowing me to kill two birds with one stone: 1) record STB video thru WMC and 2) record STB video in HD.

It works ok, but the interface is hideous. Due to lack of an IR blaster, I am currently forced to use the WinTV software to record content from the DirecTV receiver using the provided AV cables (which only support SD content).
