I am trying (without much success!) to copy a Channel 5 programme recorded on our HDR-2000T over Christmas on to a USB stick.
I have followed the detailed instructions as given elsewhere, but when I get to the point where the red button has changed from ‘Move’ to ‘Copy’ and I press the red button, a message pops up saying “Cannot copy files due to lack of storage space”. I don’t know if it is of any relevance, but the HDD is currently showing an availability capacity of 39%.
I originally bought a 128GB USB stick, but after this hiccup, I splashed out on a 512GB stick, but to my despair, the same message appeared. The USB stick is inserted into a socket immediately below the Ethernet socket at the rear of the unit.
Does anyone have an explanation, and more importantly a solution to this frustrating problem? I have an awful suspicion that the problem may be directly related to the fact that the recording was made from channel 105, and is therefore a HD recording….
