I was watchin a demo video on the new Digital video recorders coming out on services like DishNetwork, and they encode all the content so you can't transfer it to your PC and upload clips or edit it. I scoured the internet seeing if anyone had managed to hack it and extract the files from the Dishnetwork DVR but nobody seems to have a clue.
Nero's LiquidTV though will Tivo it in a form you can upload right from your DVR and stuff, sounds pretty cool.
