You are right Rajini but main problem would be the FORMAT in which the stb Record or write the movie contents,I mean the pc Read or play the contents or not this would be the main issue ?

STB records the content in EXT format. Windows/Mac pc cannot read or play those files. However linux can read and play it.

Yes bro you are right and the EXT format is Linux file system am I right bro. So Fat32/64 or NTSC file system can't Recognize it .

Yes bro you are right and the EXE format is Linux file system am I right bro. So Fat32/64 or NTSC file system can't Recognize it .

yeah buddy exactly, EXT is the native file system of linux so it can read those files.

Thanx for info :tup i have also linux red hat 6.0 os as virtual hard disk in my pc. I will try to play ext file on it.

One thing I add more that Mostly STB'S are Linux based & Naturally the written DATA will be in Linux format & their are many Linux formats in which as Madhan bhai has said the EXT is the native file system of linux so it can read those files so Linux OS in PC can Recognize the data or contents written in HDD/Pen drive of STB.

Please don't get confused with filesystem & file formats. Both are different thing.
Linux native filesystem is ext3/ext4. So if your STB is running on linux, then chances are high that the HDD will be formatted in EXT3/ext4 filesystem format.
So using Linux PC you can easily mount that EXT3/EXT4 partition of HDD, & you will be able to see the files available on that partition. But this does not mean that you can able to view or play that file on your PC system. Because you need the same codec with which the media file in encoded with. Otherwise your media player will not recognized the media file & will not be able to play the media at all. Furthermore these file will be encrypted also. So no chance to see the recorded media.

Absolutly right mystic bro. as I also forget to mention that File system & Format of the data written in is different 100% accurate. As you said ,"these file will be encrypted also" Because of piracy the data is being encrypted to make it safe from being used on other hardware or Illegal use. :tup
