I am one of the people who has been testing this for a couple of months now, and it works fine on my x50V with WM2005.
How can it do that? Would you be able to do that with a PVR provided by a cable company? I thought this thing had its own built-in tuner so I can't see how you can control a Tivo or a PVR from it. If you connect a PVR's output, to this thing's input, you wouldn't be able to use the slingbox's tuner because you would only be receiving one channel (i.e. you 'd have to tune in to ch.3 to receive the one channel from the PVR).
