What's up with the last comment at the end of the External USB Storage video? "You plug it in, and the first time you try to archive an event it will prompt you to reformat. The set top box will reformat; reboot and you’re ready to go…” WHAT?!? What about all the programming I already have on my 622?

Reformat the external drive.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

He was answering a question about what you do with the drive to get it to work. The answer just plug it in and the receiver does the rest.

One confused comment in the video, the guy first said that you could move the contents from USB drive to PC for storage only (not play back), then, he stated the file system on the USB drive is porpritery and won't be recognized by PC..... So which part is the truth?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

The file wont be recognized by the computer, I asked him that after the video was done as that confused me too.

[general487]

he just kept saying "set top box", does that mean that boxes other than the 622 (on the single account, of course) will have this HD playback feature directly from the external drive?

Camcorder video on external drive

During the demo, he mentioned that slides could be loaded into the external drive to setup slide shows. I wan't quite sure about what has to be done to do this but what about consumer camcorder HDV footage. Can this be stored in some manner?
