Is this how you are setup Leftwing, or is the computer doing the recording also the computer streaming it to your TV?
As I understand it, the HD recording is done mainly with the OTA stuff, something Jedi Ninja has pointed out is not available in Calgary.

What is your server device? If you can map it as a network drive, then you should have no probably getting shows on or off of it. If the device has a built-in uPNP server, then you will have even more options in terms of serving content out to other devices on the network. (Some NAS type external hard drives have uPNP built in.)
As for HD, you can probably get it if you use the non-PVR motorolla HD tuner box as an external and connect it with firewire, I've never tried this myself.
