LinHES Forums :: View topic - Not able to view recordings on windows box

I recorded a couple shows last night and everything went fine. I can watch the recordings on my myth box with no problems. I have a friend that missed these shows and asked for the files. I got samba working and copied to my xp box. The problem I have is that all of my windows players just show a black screen with no sound when I play the files. I am just using the defaul 5e50 settings for recording for now. Mpeg-2 format. I am thinking about ripping a dvd for him from the myth box but I am not sure how to do this.

Any ideas appreciated.

Please search before asking questions like this. For some reason there always seems to be clumps of people asking the same questions over a relatively short period of time, so you probably have at least a 50-50 chance of being the 2nd or 3rd person asking it this month. This thread for example is less than a week old. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=15071&highlight=windows+recorded
