I know this is a common question but I can't seem to find a simple answer. My macine is a standard Foxsat HDR, older model I think, about 5 yrs old.
I have a large file (3.5hrs) that won't copy onto my 16GB Fat32 memory stick, so how do I copy it. It is a part of the Glastonbury festival and I only want 1 hr of it.
So is there a way to edit it, can't see one and not sure about downloading software etc.
I tried formatting the stick to Ext3 using Partition Magic, worked ok but Humas refuses to recognise it.
It will see a Fat32 format but Fat32 has a 4GB limit so no use.
Sadly can't see Ntfs format, bit of an oversight there ? so can't use that.
I read somewhere (I think) that the Humax could format the memory stick if it was 32GB or over, true or false ? When I look at the screen showing HDD and memory stick I can not see an option to format the drive.
Even if it can what would it format it into ? not Fat32 as that still would not work.
Any ideas ?
I had the same problem with a movie that I just had to delete, if I had realised it was going to be a problem I would have recorded it as two overlapping parts and stitched them back together. Can't do it with this though.
Why does it not see the Ext3 format drive ? What is Ext3 anyway as my next problem is Windows doesn't recognise it, there is probably a solution to that but tedious that they didn't use a worldwide format for the copy file.
