Back at the beginning of the month SageTV 6.0 Beta was made available to the public, and as with any beta software there were a few hiccups which is why version 6.0.13 was released yesterday. Looking at the release notes, it appears that it is more of a bug fix than anything else, although there are a couple of small newly added features.This new release contains 38 different updates to the core program alone, as well as a few extender and STV changes. There does seem to be new features in the way of transcoding recorded media, but judging from the user forum it is still a tad buggy.
If you do decide to go ahead and try out the latest beta, then you may want to follow SageTV's advice and go take a look at the forum post that is available for the original version 6 beta. The page in question has information on upgrading previous installs to the beta including the current licensing agreements.
One of the things that I love about SageTV was the whole idea of having a server / client model with its Placeshifter technology. Hopefully when version 6 gets out of beta they might be able to stream HDTV.
