Hacking the New Replay TV Units?

Posted by Cliff on from the next-generation-PVRs dept.

cybernate asks: "Well the new Replay TV is out, this new box lets you skip commercials and best of all the new box has a Ethernet connection and lets you send video to other Replay TV units. It looks like the new units are running a web server, but so far I have been unable to figure out the directory structure. Before I break out my Radcom traffic analyzer has anyone hacked this box yet? I would like to setup my FreeBSD box to act like a replay unit for video storage." Wow! Looks like ReplayTV is making a play for the PVR King-of-the-Hill title. Alas, if only I could do this with my TiVo...
