How to read usb file

[yorick]

Hi all had a tm6902 seems to be great so far. But untill i get a usb hard drive i was hoping to be able to record onto a usb stick and transfer it to my laptop.Have tried this but nothink seems to be able to open it. Any suggestions please .All the best Yorick

The recording is a .ts (transport file) either update your codecs ensuring that .ts is in the list or throw it in to a converter (to .divx - ,avi) or whichever codecs are on your machine, you should then be able to open and watch it

I use GOM player, which is free to download, to play recordings .ts files. It works with SD recordings but not with HD recordings. I haven't done this for a long time so there might be some improvements in this area.

It is certainly a better option than converting large files to another format - which takes a long time and often ends with poor results.

Thanks to both replies will have a go at both. all the best Yorick

This is harder than i thought all the downloads for the above seem to want to either put something else on your computer or change your computer or free download but a price to run it

Just played a file recorded on Technomate 6900HD+ just using Nero, the only codec pack I have installed is K-Lite Codec Pack 5.5.1 (full)
Opened the recorded file - inside are 6 files (001,002,003,subtitle file,dvd movie info & Transport Stream) I double clicked on Transport Stream (with Nero as default) then Nero opened and played the recording.
Hope this helps
