[QUOTE="nealeb, post: 475702, member: 91389"] I'm also a convert from the DigiTV world. It seems that the "ts" format is slightly different between DigiTV and MP - for DigiTV it is indeed a file containing the full MUX data content with however many channels are on that MUX, and which can be decoded later. For MP, it is a single channel and is equivalent but not identical to an mpg file. It's a bit of a pain for me as I need to convert it to mpg to use with a MediaMVP streaming device which does not recognise .ts - I use VideoRedo for doing that. I would use VR for trimming and tidying things I wanted to keep anyway, but I never needed to do this for "transient" recordings and it means that MP cannot be used as a time-shifting tool and you need to wait to the end of the recording to be able to convert it. I have a feeling that there might be a plugin that supports MediaMVP directly but it is not always easy to come up with the right search on this forum, or know where to look as a newcomer. I might also be wrong about the timeshifting aspects (I use a "conventional" DVB-T TV for viewing, not a PC, so native timeshifting/viewing is out) but again, I hope to stumble across useful information one day:) [/QUOTE]
