BeyondTV looking for beta testers

Brad Linder from PVR Wire posted an item today indicating that "Snapstream has put out a call for beta testers for BeyondTV version 4.5. Snapstream has a long history of inviting users to beta test each release, so I can only assume that they've lost a few of their regular testers, or they're really looking for some serious feedback for the next release of their PVR software.
BeyondTV 4.5 is described as having "some very cool new features," but there's no word on what those features are. In recent releases BeyondTV has added support for HDTV, automated DivX compression, and searching for programs by category. I've had some problems with that DivX compression feature, so I've gone back to using Windows Media compression for now (allowing me to store hundreds of hours of programming on a 250GB hard drive), but BeyondTV seems to get a bit better at DivX with each new release."
