HD Recorder with USB to watch movies? Apple TV? - how to watch movie by usb on sony tv

Hello,

I checked downloads of movies from the internet on my computer. However, I bought myself a new look 50-inch plasma screen to them. I bought an HD recorder from Sony has a USB port, when I thought I could just load a USB memory and add movies to your hard drive. This is not the case! The only for loading MP3s.

Has anyone from an HD recorder can know that levy the movies? I have sole custody of HDMI with 1080p.

Maybe I should get an Apple TV, but do not play all formats of film. Can anyone recommend something better than Apple TV?
