Hi,

I also have de WD Player. You can also have edius capture the files in MT2 format insted of the Canopus HD codec if you are transfering the files from your camara with firewire.

There is a program called "AVS Video converter", I have tried it once but did not buy as I had little need

Type the name into your search engine, could be of help

Export to HDV mpeg format and the WD player will have no problems
Although it says it can read AVI it is only MS DV AVI

I have some .flv files but EEdius is not able to read them. How could I convert them for editing with Edius?
thanks

@ pjsssss ==> THX for the fast and correct translate..... :-))

@Ulisse

imho, this is a example for export to one from "the different format that the WD-TV can read "

I own the WD player i used it for sameday edit if you are done with your edit either HD or SD export out as Mpeg Programs stream you would be fine.and also it plays HMC 150 files native.

I think he means that after you are done with your editing even if it is HQ, export to a different format that the WD-TV can read.

export behind all your editing, to a (transfer \ view) fileformat who can WD-TV read.
WD-TV can read a lot of these formats ==> look in the manual.

I get a file .avi

this ".avi" have the codec "CanopusHQ"

• "CanopusHQ" = Intra (frame per frame) -codec with 4:2:2 and ~100 - 180 Mbit/sec

• "CanopusHQ" = excellent for editing, but not constructed for transfer or view

• "CanopusHQ" = needs to read him, installed Canopus-Codec on the device ==> per installed Edius or per installed Codec-pack

export behind all your editing, to a (transfer \ view) fileformat who can WD-TV read.
WD-TV can read a lot of these formats ==> look in the manual.

Please excuse my "gibberish" english...... friendly greetings from CentralEurope

Most likely because you are capturing Canopus HQ AVI files and the WD TV doesn't have Canopus HQ codec to decode it. There are tons of video codecs, so the WD TV won't be able to play everything.

Just capture as native M2T, or transcode it afterward.

Hi, I have just purchased Western Digital WD TV with an external hard drive. Wonderful purchase, with a very small device I now can view a full HD film on my full HD TV. I have noticed Western Digital WD TV works fine with .m2t files but it doesn't read .avi files created with Edius. When I capture a file from videocamera Sony FX7 (hdv) with Edius I get a file .avi (I think it is), well then Western Digital WD TV doesn't read this file. Why please?
Thanks
