| 1271897 | 2012-05-01 22:38:00 | Most TVs(if not all) only read FAT32. Once you reformat the media drive back to FAT32 and copy in your files then I would expect that you will be good to go. | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1271898 | 2012-05-08 20:58:00 | Everything sorted - I used www.verbatim.com as the interface was very simple, converted to FAT 32 and away. I think the problem was that I had reformatted the drive to NTFS and not realised it wasn't compatible with playing to TV. The picture doesn't fill the whole screen - bands at top and bottom. Is there any way to make these smaller? - I have played with media player preferences: NTSC and PAL and also TV display (wide,normal/ps, normal/lb) but that is best I can get it. The DVD player picture has smaller bands at top and bottom... Anyway thanks again for all your help ;) Matthew |
