It's probably stored on the Box in the format it was received which a form of mpeg 2, but that's not the problem.

The problem is going to be getting it off the box and onto your computer without taking the box apart and removing the hard drive. I have never seen one of these boxes but I guess there no digital output that can interface with the PC. So you will either need a video capture card or a DVD recorder. If got one those it can be done assuming no form of copy protection is being used by the box such as Macrovision's legacy ACP copy prevention or RipGuard,

Do you want me to carry on?
