Hi. I am looking to purchase a Hauppuage Colossus to record my Comcast/ Directv. I have a few questions before I make the purchase. First, what is the difference between the Colossus, and the Colossus 2? Is the 2nd one worth the extra $10? Second, can I use the IR blaster to auto change the channel, for the recording? Third, does it work with WMC, or Next PVR? Which is better?
Finally, is the Colossus even worth purchasing?
Sorry for all of the questions, but there aren't many topics on this.
Thank you in advance, and I appreciate any help!
