Just to report...I was sitting here watching a recorded program on Myth,
when I saw an unfamiliar flash over by the equipment. It was HDPVR2 firing
up to record something.  Unfortunately I don't yet have a channel change
solution (my FireWire seems to have crapped out) but at least the recorder
looks to be in good working order.  Thank you all so much for the input and
especially John P for writing then sharing his software.
