EVox EX1100 playback - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hi, I've owned my ex1100 for about 6 mths now, but I've not really looked at what the box can do, other than watching TV. Today, I came across a post that said you can use a memory stick for recording. I thought you had to have an external harddrive so paid no attention to the pvr side of the box. So in went my stick and great, it recorded 2 mins of Scooby Doo! So I know the pvr works. Then I thought about putting an avi file onto the stick and instead of having the pc hooked up to the telly I could use the EVox to watch my d/l series of Lost. It didn't work. Through the menu/tools/usb - some files would be listed, others were not. The ones that were listed would not play.
So, anyone got any idea's?
Also what other uses has the EVox box got?
I'm selling my 1100 soon and upgrading to the 7000HD, but I'm assuming the above will still be relevant.
