Hi,
Just bought a 2000T which is working great.

Managed to save an HD programme to my external hard drive, which is a great feature. It would be great if I could plug it in to my pc to view it there, but this does not seem to be possible as it's a .ts file which VLC for example can't read

I have tried several TS converters, non of which work. Even the paid for trial versions which promise the earth, fail to read them. So how do I do it, or have Humax deliberately made it not possible?

Welcome to our Forum

HD when transferred remains encrypted, nothing you can do about that I'm afraid.

There is a way to solve your problem but it outside the rules of this Forum to discuss it here. hummy.tv might be more productive.
