Nero Showtime will play *.ts files. There is a 15 days evaluation, if you don't have it. | |||

Google either to download them. MPC is tiny and VLC plays damn near anything. I've no idea how they compare to MP10 as I've never used it. | ||

Try GOM Media Player - it is supposed to play Drabox .ts files but I can't test it. | ||

My System: darkbox rev2007 Reciever + old pace sky box 70 CM OVAL DISH multi lnb | Tried gom this works fine on computer , might sound strange but i now need to figure out how to send the files whilst playing. to my tv ,"in another room" ,thats why I was looking for a plug in . I will try later and report back , I wonder what type of ts file they actually are ,Reason for asking is I have a Thompson hd recorder which i have been trying "with no success "to copy to computer the files on it. thanks for help | ||

My System: Various | Are the programs SD or HD? VLCplayer usually works with SD .ts files but generally has problems with HD .ts files e.g. BBCHD. Media Player Classic with the proper codec installed usually works fine. Good HD codecs are CoreAVC or Cyberlink Powerdvd 7.X | ||

My System: darkbox rev2007 Reciever + old pace sky box 70 CM OVAL DISH multi lnb | I have a new problem now , before I was testing recorded material on a 2gig usb stick ,now i have recorded tv material onto usb remote hard drive ,i can see and play stuff back from usb/hd on the dark box , but the computer "same one as previously" does not see any of this material , also another quirk is that mp3 fles recorded onto the usb hd are not seen by the darkbox , mp3's recorded on the usb stick are seen fine , weird or what? | ||

Perhaps I am mistaken, but so far you have only tried to play the files using various applications with the files residing on the USB flash stick. My guess is that, as a USB interface is not as fast as with local HDD, you will always run into these kind of problems, especially with HD files as they are heavier and need more resources. MP3 files are not as heavy as HD or SD, so they play fine. | |||

My System: darkbox rev2007 Reciever + old pace sky box 70 CM OVAL DISH multi lnb | I have just done a bit more experimenting ,seems the darkbox only sees older files recorded on it from the computer I have just dragged a couple of random files of the type which are already on it and they are not seen ,but strangely sees the tv material it has recorded .maybe I should format the disk with the dark box utility, i raelly must get my head round this as th e whole point of the box's pvr was to play files back through the computer . | ||
