Acquired an RS-TX20 and I have a 'Plus' subscription. So MRV is enabled and I can see my other SAS2 240's. However, they are Superpatched so I can't MRV.

I'm debating doing the PROM mod but what I would really like is to burn MRV'd shows to DVD, otherwise MRV usage isn't that critical with this machine.

I know in general that's not possible (MRV->DVD) but would it be with a PROM modded Superpatch job? I guess I'm wondering is this related to a 'tystream' limitation or a 'cipherkey' issue?

AFAIK, the superpatch doesn't address this problem.
