I would not use the wireless disks, performance is not going to be as good as even FireWire disks, Sata with RAID is the best solution for external disks for editing.

Steven, I assume that you want to convert m2t files into something like standard QuickTime clips? You don't quite "uncompress" m2t. That file is what's called an "MPEG 2 Transport Stream", basically...

Can you create an image in Photoshop or any app that creates a TIFF. Create a square with a "hole" in the middle, import in Premiere and you have your border by virtue of the alpha channel.

OK, so you captured the files as straight mpeg files. That's the reason for your initial settings. I thought you had QT files so setting the compressor to MPEG was going to require a render. Keep in...

Not quite that but this script http://aescripts.com/2008/01/18/magnum-the-edit-detector/ might help. It detects the cuts in a sequence automatically and creates and AE layer for each cut.
