Question for the techo-crowd out there.

I recently upgraded from my S1 box to a TiVo HD, very nice unit, and I'm 
starting to play around with all the options that networking brings.  I have 
gotten most of the stuff to work, but there's one that's being a problem.  
Watching a show transferred to the PC doesn't happen because of some codec 
problem.  I can play DVD's on the computer with the included Sonic player.  
I've downloaded and installed two or three codec decoders, to no avail.  Anyone 
got an option to get this thing working ?  I tried playing it from the folder 
directly, and opening the file with Real Player and Quicktime.

Also, I was using a 2Wire dsl modem router, and it connects to the service ok, 
but the other network features seem sluggish or non working on the 801.b 
router, but worked well on the 801.g.  Right up until the 801.g (2701) started 
power cycling and now needs replacement (I suspect it's the router that's bad, 
not something else).  I'm using a tivo brand usb wireless adapter to avoid 
these kind of problems, but I'm not going to sweat it too much until I get the 
replacement router.  Anyone else have issues with a 2Wire router (1000HW)

Other than this (and I think it's mostly my computer, not the tivo box), I'm 
really liking the HD box.  No cable cards yet, wanted to give it a go with just 
the analog signal going in after all I've read about problems with the cable 
cards, so far I'm pretty happy.
