  That seems remarkably magnanimous! I've not heard of this happening on main-stream services though, you didn't say which service it was.

  I take it you're not familiar with the sand-boxing iOS does (especially older versions)! First, the video file in question would have to be copied from Photos to Files, and then from Files there would be multiple ways to access over-the-network storage. But when the iPad in question has a mere...

  In the particular instance, I was trying to get a 6GB file off an iOS 13 iPad onto a PC. In the end I AirDropped the file to my iOS 16 iPad, and from there to an exFAT card.

  There are so many similar examples out there, especially on cookery programmes. (I paraphrase) "No more than eight to ten minutes"; "If you can't get xxx, yyy will do just as well" [to which I say, if it will do just as well, use that in the first place].

  exFAT doesn't seem to work in iOS 13, even though sources suggest it should. Apple don't say, I'm relying on third party info.

  So basically if he tried DHCP on the HDR-FOX that would fail too. If it did, that would be a data point indicating the Foxsat may not be scrap.

  No doubt that was on the Foxsat. I asked you to try it on the HDR-FOX. Since you seem to ignore everything, there's little point proceeding further.

  I can't understand how you correlate "longer and longer to boot" with the PSU. If the PSU were faulty, it would probably not boot at all, or be unstable (eg reboot multiple times before settling down). Where are these "much discussed"?

20. Cannot access Foxsat on network
  
  Yes Doesn't seem very likely, but obviously possible Factory reset won't affect the firmware, but a good thing to try never the less (in case it's a database corruption causing the problem). That's significant. Nonetheless, try what I suggested (post 27) and report back.
