Nothing. trying to play ifo, idx files or just the dir - same result.

I doubt the stream is h.264, as the TV is not able to even decode HD
mpeg-4 streams. I also seriously doubt the files are encrypted. The TV
allows recording of analog signals and I see no motivation in
encrypting those records.

Here you  are: http://vega.petamem.com/stuff/LG-VID/

There's an .ifx, an .ifo and the first 100MB of the .trp file


Thanks for looking.
