BeyondTV Gets Updated to 4.9.3

Well what do we have here?  Out of the blue comes a welcome update to the BeyondTV PC DVR software.  Nothing too exciting but any sign of life will be very welcome to those who still use Snapstream’s HTPC software  This would be the first update to BeyondTV since June of 2009!  And that in and of itself is pretty significant for a HTPC software that had its first BeyondTV 4 release back in 2005.
