Is it possible (under ANY circumstances) to watch a recorded movie from an external hard drive from the vip612 without copying it back to the vip612 internal drive first?

Sorry if this has been covered, but I just found this site.

thanx in advance........ssafra

Yes for the 622 - maybe that means yes for the 612.

I appreciate the response. IS there anything special required to do so?

My ViP612 works fine watching recordings directly from the EHD most of the time. Occasionally, I have had a problem with a recording that, speculating here, seems to be related to the size/handling of the data stream going through the USB system. I restore those back to the 612 or sometimes I am able to watch them from the EHD on my ViP722 without the problem.

There's nothing special about the process. The menus are straightforward. But my observations in comparing the 612 to the 722 is that the 612 is a bit "kludgy". Any particular question or problem you have?

I haven't seen any problems watching EHD stored programs from the EHD with my 612.
