Eh? I don't get you... My recordings are all native MPEG TS... (Hauppage 
Digital TV card in the UK). What do you get native DivX from?

Oh yeah... I have doscovered I can COPY the same MPEG TS streams from mythtv 
onto the PS3 HDD and then play them woythout a problem. It would appear it's 
a combination of MPEG TS and DNLA streaming.
