eee Pad Transformer Prime and playback of tivo (mpeg-2) HD Video

[mp34me]

I’m thinking of buying the Prime.

I’m using kmttg to download a tivo file to PC and remove DRM. The result is
a mpeg-2 file the same size as the tivo recording (for example, a 1 hour show is
6.6 - 6.8 gb in size). I then use Handbrake to convert to a much smaller mpeg-4 file for playback on my other tablets.

I wondering if the Handbrake conversion can be skipped.

Has anyone played the mpeg-2 file on their Prime? Is playback smooth? What
about fast action scenes? Is A/V in sync?

I know know a file this size must be placed on a NTFS formated external drive, for example the mirco SD card.

Thanks in advance.

You may want to think about heading over to ask this question at the sister forum dedicated to the ASUS Transformer tablets. Many more Prime users over there.
