From avi to rec ?

[martinde]

I have a extern hard disk 'hanging' at my Topfield 7700HSCI, now i want to see downloaded avi /dvix movies via my hard disk/usb port/ topfield on my TV - how to do that?
Do I have to convert those avi files to rec files? And how?

you can't play avi/divx videos with hsci....

Hello,
you must have 3 Programs. First Program is "VideoToDVD". This Program make an avi-file to mpeg-file.
Second you must install "quicktime alternativ 181" on your Computer and at last you must have "MPEG Streamclip 1.2". Now you can convert mpeg-file to ts.rec-file.
Check this. I hope my answer is correctly. I make it so for my 5200PVRc.

Nonsense!
The TF7700HSCI can't read TS-Files.

hi...

Not a TS-File. You make with "MPEG Streamclip 1.2" one xxxx.TS.REC-File. OK

Check it

That may work with a 5200, but not with a 7700HSCI.

Hi,

a big sorry from me. I think that was the same "rec"-file.

I hope you find an answer.
