I'm currently using ATI Multimedia Center with an HDTV Wonder card to get DTV video. I recorded the BCS Championship game the other day and would like to burn it to a disk to save it for later. I've used the help feature in the MMC software but it doesn't have the option to burn to a dvd. Does anyone know how I can do this?
I've got Nero to use as my main burning program. If I need to download something else I can. I've tried creating the playlist and exporting that to the desktop, but all it does is copy over the actualy playlist, not the entire file.

Tell me this and I can probably help you burn it.
Well that's the thing, the file is apparently in the playlist of MMC. I didn't go into the PVR part of the software to record it. If I bring up the library, I can see 30 minute chuncks of the game. When I transfer the file down to the playlist, and then export it to my desktop, it will show as an .m3u file. But when I double click on the file to play it, it will play the entire 30 minute block.
Does that help you? I can post pictures to give you a better understanding of what I am talking about if I need to.
I couldnt find anything on the net about the Tv-On-Demand file. And in my version of ATI MMC it has a option in the right click menu to "Export as MPEG-2" but apparently they have removed that feature. But here is my idea. Possible that file that you can only save as a .m3u playlist isnt actually your recording? Maybe its just a file telling ATI MMC were it stored the file? If this is the case and you could hunt down the file I'm sure we could find a way to convert it to a better format.
I've tried to find where that m3u file is pointing to but I can't find it. I posted just in case someone else happened to know, since I know there is more circumventing the process here than I would be told from ATI. I'll see if ATI can answer that question.
Well sorry I couldn't be of more help, hope ATI gives ya a hand. Also so you dont have this issue in the future change the format you record to as .avi or.mpg or something of the such.
