This is all great feedback, guys, thanks. Maybe it'll take a generation or two before this is practical and cost-effective.

If this thing is recording uncompressed DV you're looking at something like 10 times the storage needed for a show. That means approx 80G bytes for a one-hour 1080i broadcast. This is not practical for a recording device. Maybe it would be useful for watching live TV, but not timeshifting.

Yes, you would need to automatically encode in the background and delete the original as soon as you are done.
