Hello, I just discovered a series that I love... I downloaded the first season on torrent9, everything went smoothly, I wanted to download the second season and that's when the drama happened! When I connect my hard drive to my TV, it tells me that the format is not compatible even though it's the same as season 1!! What do you think the problem is?
Thank you!!

Hello,

Your thing isn't necessarily legal..??

You're missing two pieces of information...

1° What formats are accepted by your TV? Check the manual or Google

2° What is the format of your video... the last three letters of the file.

If the two aren't in harmony, it can't work..

they simply end up with French HDTV...with the title, season, and episode just before

it does not answer either of the two questions...

1° TV formats..

2° Movie formats.. it ends with three/four letters after a dot like .xvid, .mkv or others. to avoid this, you can also copy the entire name...

Point 2) is false. The extension has never determined the format of a video; AVI and MKV, for example, are containers.

What determines the formats are the codecs used (xvid is one of them codec ^^) DivX, X264, etc. are codecs that determine the FORMAT.

You can have an MKV with a video track in DivX and an audio track in MP3, or another MKV with a video track in x265 and an audio track in M4A.

That’s the difference between a container and a format.

It's all very true... but with our client, we're far from such precision; we need to rough out the subject.

At the same time, instead of coming here to ask why his illegal downloads aren't working, customer support should be provided by the site from which the files come, it seems to me...
