    I have a FOxsat-HDR and find I can only backup files onto an ext HD not to a DVD player.
    I need to do this because radio files are saved on the PVR as .TS files, which are a problem converting to MP3 files.
    I have a prog that can convert, but it will only read DVD discs.
    Any ideas please
    PS Unless any of you know of freeware that converts .TS to MPEG files, which I can then convert to MP3.

    thanks

    Hi welcome to the forum, have you tried VLC player ? I will try one for you tommorow.

    This is also said to work (Topfield REC files are transport stream with a few extra bytes of epg details at the beginning.

    See the note re .ts files.

    I convert HDR radio .ts files direct to .mp3 with Xmedia Recode from http://www.xmedia-recode.de/download.html

    I still use an app called ProjectX. It works very well with my 9200T TS files, so it might be worth a try with the HDR as long as the stream is not HD (DVB-T). It strips all the individual components from the TS stream, and one of those will be an MP2(3) file.

    Be warned, however, that it isn't an intuitive piece of software.

    I also find the following website to be an invaluable source of help with converting formats: http://www.videohelp.com

    If the Project-x yields you mp2 files these can be edited in mp3directcut (with the addition of mpglib.dll) and then saved as mp3, it's also good for recording.
