Default SOMPY MovieEncoder Freeware Video Conversion Tool

http://www.sompy.com/sw.html

"Watch movies on all kinds of devices including Pocket PC, Palm, Smartphone, Portable Media Center. Have fun on the go. It's so convenient to put your favorite movie, TV show in pocket and watch them anywhere, anytime. This software provides you a easy to use interface to convert video files(wmv, rm, rmvb, avi, mpeg, mpg, Tivo2Go, etc) or DVD(*.vob) into small size portable format(avi) playable on your device. Just it with SOMPY MovieEncoder !!"



It's great to see development in this area, because there aren't many easy to use video tools. There's no mention of DVR-MS file conversion, which is one format any Windows Media Center Edition owner would like to see.

I don't know if this is ok or not but I have a dvr from comcast and I would love to get my recordings onto anything but tape. Right now I have to play the recorded movie/whatever and record it on tape. Talk about nasty. I noticed tha there is a network jack in the back. Does anyone know how to get the recordings out of there without recording them to tape?

HDTV is no different than a regular analog signal in that it would need to be down-sampled to work on your Pocket PC...

Odds are very good that your box is locked down and you'll be unable to pull anything off it. To check, Google your DVR and see if anyone in a forum has figured out a way to get stuff off it...
