    It begs the question, why does the Humax encrypt SD. It can’t help performance encrypting and then decryptting for playback ? Presume also over DNLA the Humax has to decrypt for third party devices unless they do the decryption ?

    All the Humax Freeview HD pvrs encrypt both SD and HD but build in the capability to decrypt SD on copying.

    The Humax will do the decrypting over DNLA as well.

    As you say, it seems a pointless exercise encrypting the SD stream in the first place. My old Windows Media Centre didn’t encrypt SD recordings so presumably it’s not a licensing restriction imposed by the TV companies?

    It would solve a lot of the problems with the FVP-4000T if Humax stopped encoding SD. Even the Vista / Win7 problems would be solved at a stroke!
