Engadget HD Shows Off TV Pack

Engadget HD has gone hands on with the Media Center TV Pack (Fiji) showing off its new features like native QAM support, heterogeneous tuner support (mix and match tuner types), subchannel support, and more.

Their conclusion is that the TV Pack is a “pretty nice upgrade, but most definitely not everything we wish it was.”  This might have something to do with DIRECTV support being nowhere to be found, and maybe that there is no where you can actually get the TV Pack if you are willing to pay.

The official announcement for the TV Pack is set to be at CEDIA in September.

I can't believe that I can't just get the clear-QAM support in a singular patch.  I just want to use Media Center to record local channels in HD and MS is acting like that's only something they can offer in a medium-size update via OEM.  Honestly, this is the most annoying thing I've experienced in five years of Media Center use....Q
