[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1173127, member: 109222"] Hi. The TV server is "copying" the DVB stream directly to the disk. So as long as every station in the whole world is using .ts as container for broadcast this will not be changed. In principle DVR-MS and WTV also are TS but with additional DRM management options added by Microsoft to calm down the content "mafia" that did not like the ability to do an exact copy of the broadcast stream.... MP4 for example can not be used for broadcasting as it did not support most of the default DVB content like Mpeg2 Video, MP2 Audio, Teletext, EPG,... So MP4 never will be possible at all. MKV as opposite supports all DVB content, but is is not usable for watching "partially downloaded" videos while still downloading (means broadcasting) them. So MKV also is not possible. Aside of .TS (that mainly is developed for broadcast streams) there simply is no other container that fits all needs DVB has. So no, there will be no other container supported than TS yesterday, today and tomorrow... [/QUOTE]
