I don't know how to make myself any clearer, we will only offer help on what the box is designed to do.
We print the video types it supports clearly, in the manual and on it's spec page.
Just because something was encoded using H264 does NOT mean it is going to play on the linktheater HD.
It needs to be in a recognizable extension.
Generally speaking when you pull these broadcasts off of your DVR or wherever you get them, they'll be in some .str container or something else obscure.
I know of no box, that's not a computer with codec packs installed, that can decode this data without conversion.
I know of only a scant few media players that support mkv. We do not.
So, if these files are not in a supported file type, they will not play or will not play properly.
The easiest way to play these BBC transport streams which are most likely either .str or .ts is to extract the mpeg out of it.
Or more simply use tsRemux to just convert the whole thing into a m2ts file, which the unit does play.
