Extenders won't play recorded TV or LiveTV

I've got a frustrating problem where my xbox extender and xbox 360 both
refusing to play recorded TV or allow watching of LiveTV. Last time
this occurred, MSFT support told me it was the MCE and to flatten and
reinstall. I did, and for a week, it worked... then quit again. I'm
getting a video error and told to reboot the MCE box. I've done this
about a hundred times, no joy.
When I try to watch recorded shows on a XP Pro box with WMP, I've got
audio, but no video. I'm guessing this is a drivers or codec problem,
but I have no worldly idea at all how to troubleshoot it... everything
works just find on the MCE box itself.
I have both the latest divx and xvid codecs installed, as well as an
ac3 codec / filter. These were both installed after the nuke and pave,
and things still worked. I can't think of anything that changed after
the nuke-and-pave other than the standard barrage of windowsupdates...
I have these same codecs installed on the XP Pro box, so I'm even more
bewildered as to why I have no video, and why the extenders both refuse
to function.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot and/or fix the problem would be
GREATLY appreciated.
I would REALLY rather spend my weekend doing something other than
ANOTHER nuke and pave of my MCE box to get the extenders functional
again. :(
Thanks!
