Hey guys, been a long time since I've been on here. Here is my question. I recently reconnected my HR20 to my network to take advantage of the VOD episodes of Friday Night Lights (love the show by the way). Anyway, I just fired up my Playstation 3, and under the Media server it now has Diretv2PC showing up. I can click on this, and then access my playlist. When I select a show, it says "unsupported data". What exactly can I do with this....if anything. I only have about 18% space left on my HR20, so I thought it would be great to be able to copy some shows to the PS3 to watch later, and free up some space. But since it show the data as unsupported, that would not work. So then I wondered if I could copy the shows to my PC, and then stream them to my PS3 via TVersity. Is there anything like this possible? Or anything else unique that I could do?

All help is appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

You cannot do anything with it. It is only for streaming to view and the PS3 does not fully support the DLNA spec for security to be able to play the protected media off the Directv HD-DVRs.
