    I doubt it

    you can copy the files to a pc and convert them into usable video files and then put onto dvd using various programs

    VideoReDo Plus is definitely one of them , and a TS/PS Cutting program Womble MpegVCR is another

    this is a copy and paste from darkmans site

    Assuming you are using a Flash Key Drive the files it produces [.ts] cannot be played by most software as you have found.

    VideoReDo allows you to copy files of various of formats, including .ts, into mpg files which most players can play.
    Although I haven't done so you should be able to create DVD's from these mpg files.

    If you are happy to, just continue using Windows Media Player Classic to play the original files.

    Other Players can be more convenient or preferred.

    and

    you can convert the .TS file to a DivX using DivX encoder with the MPEG-2 plugin

    and

    Or use the free alternative:

    h**p://www.ffprojects.net/tssplitter/tssplitter.htm

    and

    Nero showtime works

    and

    ConvertXtoDVD it will do .trp to perfect dvd

    Hello

    Has anyone successfully managed to transfer *.trp files to a PC and play/edit them? VideoReDo will not even open the files, even with a change of extension to *.ts

    TM6900super

    Thanks

    I agree with delstron, VideoReDo simply can't see the format that the Technomate writes the files in. Seems such a daft situation when a manufacturer uses it's own format which doesn't seem compatible with an editing software.

    I'm going to phone Technomate tomorrow to see if they can recommend anything. I bought the 6900 Super for the ability to record programs.

    Folks,
    Re Video Redo, it is fine or joining and editing SD .trp, .oo1, .002 etc files--suggest running files throu Quickstream fix in Redo first.
    Re HD .trp .001, .002 etc files, Using TS Splittter adder (Under File) to add files together then run throu TS ReMux to give Blu Ray files.
    Can then play on PC using Nero 8 Showtime and the latest Windows Media Player. Able to select audio trach also.

    GB for GB, USB hard drives cost the same or less than blank BluRay media, so for HD recordings it is probably not worth the hassle of transferring to BluRay IMHO.

    When you factor in the cosy of a BluRay burner and player, it makes even less sense to go down this route. You gan get a 1.5TG external drive for less than 130 quid now, which will hold about 60 movies, while BluRay blank media costs £4.50...

    I am not actually burning Blu ray disks, having HD in blu Ray format allows one to play the files on PC.

    My aim is to produce *.mkv files to play on my eGreat HD Media Player. Wouldn't you think it'd be an easy thing to do to get a HD file and play it on a HD Media Player? Not likely!! I think there's something quite silly about all this messing around. I would have thought that manufacturers would produce something to help it's end users get the full potential from there products! If you buy a HD camcorder the manufacture always throws in a piece of software so you can archive you film off, so why not a PVR?

    Earlier, I spoke to a guy in Technomates tech support who pointed me towards a piece of software called Wondershare Video Converter Platinum which will quite happily read the *.trp file. I installed the trial version and let it do it's work. I chose it to produce a *.mp4 file as I want to keep the HD resolution. Hours later the end result did at least work but was that jumpy it was unwatchable!

    I then put the files through TSRemux and output in BluRay format as from there you can get another program to convert it to *.mkv, the end result was just as bad.

    I'm now wondering if it's ever going to be possible to get a HD file for the player.

    ive given up trying to edit hd recorded .trp files. its a real shame. perhaps a new patch could have some editing facility in it? If anyone comes up with an easy reliable piece of software to edit//convert tm 6900 SD/HD files then id even pay for it!!!!

    Using linux I can play the files no problem as a .trp file or renaming them them to .mpg. Had a play around on an XP virtual machine and can play them using media player classic and mplayer (open source software) with the following codec packages.

    _ftp://majorgeeks.mirror.internode.on.ne t/multimedia/klcodec445f.exe

    _http://www.freecodecs.net/fc/MatroskaPackFull_1.1.2.zip

    _http://www.vistacodec.com/fc/Satsuki.Decoder.Pack.4.0.0.0.zip

    Hope this helps a bit.
