Panasonic TH-L32E3A help needed PLEASE

Hello Everyone. I cant seem to get the media streaming working. I have a windows 7 pc with Serviio running. A Panasonic Viera TH-L32E3A in the main bedroom, a Topfield masterpiece TRF-2400 in the lounge and a Panasonic Viera TH-L42E3A in the kids play room. I have been mucking around trying to get programs I record from free to air tv using my Topfiedl DVR to play on my bedroom TV and I am not having much luck. i think I am doing the right thing and selecting the corect settings but all I get is a cant read file error on my TV. I have selected the Panasonic Viera Transcoding profile but it does not work. I must admit I may be a little bit out of my league here so i would be very appreciative of some assistance. I can follow instructions well and know my way around a computer ok so.......PLEASE.......some help anyone.
Topfield TRF-2400, Onkyo TX-NR579, Panasonic TH-50PZ850A Plasma, Panasonic TH-L32E3A & TH-L42E3A LCD, Panasonic DMP-BD30 & DMP-BD75 x 2 Blu-ray, Apple TV, Logitech Harmony 900 Remote.

Hello scottm355.
I'm no expert, but recently ran into similar problems trying to view FreeView & FreeSat recorded programs - recorded on a Humax PVR.

1 >Most FreeView & FreeSat box manufacturers are duty bound (if they want to display the Free... logo) to ensure HD quality streams are encrypted before >recording onto the PVR. Trying to play back these programs on other devices without first decrypting isn't going to work. Please don't ask me how to go >about decrypting them!
>One way of testing for encryption is to copy your test file to a PC and try and play it direct using a regualar media player. If its encrypted it won't play.
>So if you are testing Serviio, you should test with a program recorded in SD (Standard Definition mode) ie NOT from an HD channel.

2 >You might try my slightly modified Panasonic profile below which I tweaked to better handle the .ts files created by my Humax PVR. It may work for you >depending on how your specific DVR stores media.

Kind regards
