Hmmm, Okay.  I don't think a Replay will work for what you are after.  Here
is a pretty good forum for ReplayTV stuff:

People have been hacking on these units for YEARS.  Since no one has made
them do what you want by now, I don't think it is feasible.

If you have $300 to $500 to burn, you might want to look at a Roku HD1000 or
SoundBridge:
