Nicely done. By the way, if you happen to have a cable/satellite box with FireWire output, use iRecord to record HD content for free with just a FW cable connecting the box to your mini. You'll need VLC to watch, and the software isn't the world's most ergonomic, but I've found it to be fantastic when wanting to preserve HD content.
in another thread you mentioned a burning program called simplyburn. i used to use that, but then i had to reinstall os x and i forgot to save the program to a disk. where can i find that program......i have looked everywhere!
