To get the status of a mpg or ndx file on the ReplayTV:

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -s 1009760397.mpg

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -s 1009760397.ndx

To fetch a mpg or ndx file from the ReplayTV and write it to disk:

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -e 1009760397.mpg

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -e 1009760397.ndx

To fetch the ReplayTV guide file and write it to guide.dat:

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -g

The -o option can be used with any ReplayPC command that writes a file to disk. -o will make ReplayPC send the file data to stdout instead.

To fetch a mpg or ndx file and send it to stdout instead of disk:

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -o -e 1009760397.mpg

replaypc 192.168.0.4 -o -e 1009760397.ndx
