How to capture ATSC to .ts file with WinTV HVR-1250

[tgcujo]

Hello everyone, I have done countless googling and can not find an answer on how it's done.

My WinTV HVR-1250 works just fine with Windows Media Center and the included WinTV software but I can't for the life of me figure out how I can get my hands on some good, standard, no-strings attached .ts video from it. I want to save videos without having to deal with proprietary formats

I don't know if I just missed some key phrases on my searches or if nobody cares about ATSC but I would greatly appreciate any leads some people more in the know could send me way. :thanks:

Their page says they simply record the broadcast in its original format. So you should have ATSC transport files. They are not problematic at all. You should be able to open them in DGIndex, for example.

If that does not work, post a link to a small sample that you have captured.
