The lack of universal channel MRS is ridiculous. If I were building my house from scratch I could easily put an HDMI splitter box behind a TiVo and then run it to both a local and a remote television using either a long HDMI cable or HDMI over Ethernet for the remote one. I know it's not quite the same because both televisions would be showing the same programme which doesn't have to be the case if one TiVo is streaming from another TiVo via MRS. I'd have expected the main five networks to have made arrangements with VM by now to enable MRS.

How many streams can a single TiVo cope with? Can I record three programmes whilst watching a fourth locally and stream a different fifth and sixth to remote TiVo boxes too?
