Hello Hacker Public Radio.
|
||||
Brockton Bob here again with Todd III of my series on how I cut the cable cord.
|
||||
In this episode I'll talk about how I use my external western digital high drive to
|
||||
save all my favorite TV episodes of the shows I like.
|
||||
Now in episode 2 I told you that I have the Net Gear digital entertain alive as my second
|
||||
set top box with the Roku 2 XD being my first set top box.
|
||||
Now the great thing about the Net Gear box is that it has two USB ports.
|
||||
By the way the Roku box has one USB port but it doesn't support many video codecs so
|
||||
I don't really use it.
|
||||
I stick with the Net Gear box.
|
||||
The Roku box only supports MP4 video whereas the Net Gear box supports almost every video
|
||||
codec around.
|
||||
I like the AVI codec because it saves a lot of space on my hard drive and the picture quality
|
||||
is pretty good.
|
||||
Now how do I get my favorite programs on my box?
|
||||
Well I go to a website called easytv.it.
|
||||
So that's www.easytv.it.
|
||||
Now this site has only television series and some documentaries for download.
|
||||
On this site you scroll through the shows by the day that they are uploaded or you can
|
||||
click on the search bar that has a drop down list of all the shows that are offered.
|
||||
If you click on the show and hit the enter key you are presented with a list of all the
|
||||
episodes for the current and past seasons.
|
||||
So I like dirty jobs so I download the episodes and put them in a folder that is labeled
|
||||
what season they are.
|
||||
I have all the episodes starting with season 1 all the way up to the current episodes.
|
||||
Now these episodes are all uploaded by members as soon as the new episode is released.
|
||||
So if you cut the cable cord and most of the shows are on easytv for download in minutes
|
||||
after they air.
|
||||
Using this website you can create a vast library of tv and cable tv series.
|
||||
One thing you do need to have is a bit torrent quiet.
|
||||
I use transmission myself on a Linux Mint laptop.
|
||||
On all the episodes I download it all I do is plug my hard drive into my laptop and
|
||||
copy them to the hard drive putting them in their respective folders.
|
||||
Then the next step is to plug into your Net Gear box and start it up.
|
||||
When you plug it in and start it up you will see your USB drive listed and all you have
|
||||
to do is click on the browse button of all your folders and pick an episode to play.
|
||||
By the way all the episodes from easytv have the commercials removed which is I like
|
||||
that.
|
||||
That's nice.
|
||||
A side note on some of the episodes.
|
||||
Some of the episodes you might want were not uploaded in the codec you want.
|
||||
So how would you fix them?
|
||||
Well I use Linux so I use the program ffmpag.
|
||||
This is a terminal program meaning you run it from the terminal.
|
||||
I know a lot of people don't like to use the terminal especially new uses.
|
||||
I use this program in the terminal to convert everything to the avi codec.
|
||||
If you don't use the terminal or if you don't run Linux have no fear there is a GUI
|
||||
program that runs on Linux and Windows.
|
||||
It's called Winff.
|
||||
You can download that and it will easily convert everything you want to any format you want.
|
||||
It's got presets all you do is click on the presets and hit go.
|
||||
So hopefully this short series will help you out.
|
||||
I hope you give it a try.
|
||||
If you need help just google anything I've talked about you'll find it on the web.
|
||||
In a future episode I plan on telling you how to get ffmpag on your Linux computer and
|
||||
I plan on doing a few easy commands to convert videos to the codec you want.
|
||||
So thanks for listening.
