The GOM player is for playing recorded files from your SV4 on your PC. Not the opposite way around.

I havent tried to do what you are attempting to do. But the SV4 records in a TS format to your HDD.

If you are trying to watch your avi files on the SV4 that's another matter. You don't need to convert avi to .ts, but you would need to convert avi to mpeg 2.

As said I have not done this. But there are plenty of paid and freeware converters. Try a freeware app first and see how you get on. TBH I would just burn them to disc and watch them via a DVD player.

Also your not whinging you are asking a valid question, thats what this forum is here for
