I was about to resort to a system reinstall when I read a post on the apple support site.

Read this thread for a quick fix:

The download is maxing out my current connection. I'll be sure to backup my existing installation before updating.

The integration with Apple TV works great, but 3 files are created when the process is complete. For a 30-minute HD recording, the original 1.7GB HD file, a converted 800MB m4v (400p) in the movies directory, and a third 800MB m4v (copy of the prior) in the iTunes library appeared. This almost doubles the size of a normal HD recording. An automatic link from iTunes to the Movies directory would be better, but overall this works flawlessly.

I'm curious about this new support for IR Blasters. I can't find any info on this on Elgato's website. Does anybody have any idea what kind of blaster h/w they support?

Server not responding, download times out. Probably because jerks like me are trying to re-initiate every few seconds... Macupdate and Apple just link back to Elgato, so no love there. I'm very pleased to see they added the ability to select which display your onscreen menu uses - hopefully it also uses the same display for all fullscreen videos as well.
