I would hope that *where* the recordings are, be they on the internal or external drive, it will be transparent to the user. When one hits "My Recordings", it should list ALL recordings on all (attached) drives.
I wonder if the Groups will group recordings from both sources together or separate them.
Maybe it would be good if there were multiple Group Sorts, so that you could toggle between:
- Alpha
- Date
- Porno (or other Genre)
- TV1 & TV2
- Which Guide was used to Create Recording (All Channels, All Sub, All HD, Head of House, Spouse; Nr 1 Son, Nr 1 Daughter, etc...)
- Which External Device (Especially if you can daisy chain a few USB Drives!)
Several times it been said to get a gaming device to hook up the 622 to the network as wireless. I don't have any gaming devices, but suspect you can add your encryption key for WEP to the gaming device. Maybe I can connect the Bridge to a computer, program the bridge, and then connect it to the 622 and connect to a Wireless Router. With the encryption, performance might decrease. But without encryption enabled, I should be able to control any in range without effort.
I have a couple of Linksys G Bridges laying around somewhere, haven't used them in awhile since I stay away from wireless, but may have to try it out. I don't remember if I use to put the keys in the Bridge, or the laptop/desktop connected to it.
Well... Will have to play around later and see whats up.
