[QUOTE="fullduck, post: 615538, member: 302762"] Thanks to everybody who gave an opinion on this topic and now I'll give a quick word on how I've progressed since I last wrote on this thread. First of all I managed to convert my 500 gigabyte ntfs hdd external hard drive to a single partition fat 32 drive. The drive has to be fat 32 as that is what the reciever is capable of reading from. Windows only allows you to format drives to 4 partitions of 32 gigabytes each. So I used a piece of software called “Swissknife” (free download) to change the whole drive to fat 32. I then used another piece of free software called “Quick Media Converter” to change my video files to readable files on the receiver box. Just convert the files to TS Dreambox files. This is obviously the format that Dreambox uses but it is also the format that Technomate uses. I now am very happy with my system. I now have more than 50 films and TV series on the HDD as well as more than 100 hrs of free space for recording simply by pushing the button [/QUOTE]
