i mentioned the tivo to answer the transcoding question.

currently transcoding is done in software yes?  you could do mpeg video
in software too, but its done in chips now.

my point is that some of the functions that SS does in software that
the naysayers say demands what is essentially a full computer, i say
could be done by specialized chips.

other than transcoding, i admit i don't know what functions u would
need a chip for to keep the exp acceptable, but i don't think speed of
the search function is a huge deal in this situation, or would be that
slow to begin with anyway.
