Forum:Problems playing files larger than 2 Gygabites

I have managed to play successfully small hd-ripped files (div-x codec) and when the file size is less than 1 gigabyte, the file plays correctly But a hd-ripped file usually weights more..

The problem arises with files larger than that (1 giga) And it's a very weird and curious thing... I try to explain exactly what happens with a file larger than a 1 gigabyte:

When the file is highlighted to be played, the player automatically resets itself, instead of pre-playing the file (as it ususally should) in the left side of the screen...

But, by accident, I achieved once to play the file , not letting time enough to begin to pre-play the file, pressing quickly the play button...

I tried to reproduce it, and unfortunately, I managed to do so only a few, very few times (1 of 30 in average) , what is a nightmare !!!

I have installed the latest firmware, and I have NTFTS file system

I thought it could be file corruption, but I tried all kind of things, repair the file system, reformat.... It always happens with larger files...

I thought it could be a hard drive failure too, but it's curious it only happens with large files, and once i manage to begin playing the file (insisting pressing the play button quickly), it plays perfectly until the end (I tried too to pause, re-play, fast forward, fast rewind... it worked all fine all the time) until I stopped the reproduction... then the player crashed again...

Any help? Thanks to you
 * Odd. I don't have any suggestions other than to try a different file format.  I don't have any Divx files of my own that are over 2 GB to try out and see if my player experiences the same thing.  With other formats, mine doesn't do that.  What version of the firmware are you using? --JCoug 19:23, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
