If you copy a short SD recording from the Foxsat-hdr to a usb stick, will the ROKU play back the .ts file directly from the usb stick ? I am guessing the ROKU has a usb port.

If it won’t then there is a compatibility issue with the transport stream file format used by the Foxsat. Similar problems exist with Sony Smart TV’s and Foxsat-hdr .ts files.

There might be a workaround but it will involve exporting the recordings, re-muxing using software like TSmuxerGUI. Re-building the support files using AV2HDR and uploading the modified files back to the Foxsat (not ideal).

I would be interested to know if a WD TV Live box can play back content direct from a Foxsat-hdr.

Hi Graham

Thanks for replying. The roku doesn’t have a USB port but I think you’re right about the .ts nature of the files. I suspect that’s why they won’t play on my Roku, although interestingly I can stream to iPad or phone using buzz media (I think!)

I shall keep pondering, can’t be bothered remuxing all the files…

I also just remembered I can stream ts files to my PS3…. Hmmm….

They stream OK to my Nexus 7 as well and also as you might expect to a HDR FOX T2 and a HDR1000S (There are issues with the latter with HD as it chooses the AD track for Audio). No joy with grandsons Sony Smart TV though. He has a PS3, I haven’t tried using that.
