</div>Almost all LCD TVs now on sale have FreeviewHD tuners, and the Sony<br>
V5500 models all do. So they can play what comes off the air. But<br>
the transport stream format that MythTV uses to store that data is<br>
something they do not support, unfortunately.<br></blockquote><div><br>I may be mistaken, but I thought Steve tried simply copying a FreeviewHD recording onto a USB stick and plugging that into the TV. In that case the format is exactly the same as what came off the satellite - MythTV doesn't do anything too it. I suppose it could be that the TV supports a different list of formats for USB/DNLA than it does for broadcast.<br>
