    The programme was recorded in SD and the whole thing is there (over 2hrs). The copy stops too early (approx half). What is created plays fine.
    As I have a lame Amazon Fire HD which does not have the apps available for it I never realised the tablet app allows file transfer, so I will try it on a friends Samsung Tablet. Which will be annoying as it is the Fire HD I want to watch things on occasionally.

    Hmm does seem to be a USB issue, like I said I transferred a 3+ hour programme over the network OK file size after transfer was 3.17Gb

    I try on mine again, I've cleaned off a 16Gb USB & reformatted it so I'll have a play with that & see if I can replicate the issue

    This USB stick has an led and it's flashing so fingers crossed something is being transferred

    I really wish it had a progress bar

    I'll get back to you if & when it finishes

    --EDIT--

    OMG it's actually transferred a short programme

    bolstered by this success I'm trying the 3+ hour one I'll let you know how it goes

    For info the stick is formatted as FAT32

    I was thinking we were here to help each other with issues not rip chunks out of each other

    Do I have to be a moderator to remind people of that ?

    It's called hijacking the thread. It is neither polite, nor helpful.

    Well glory be, hallelujah.

    The transfer to the USB stopped around 7pm so the transfer is about the same speed as actually watching the programme.

    looked at the USB stick on my PC and there are 4 folders & a file

    Folders are

    .cache
    .recordings
    .recycleBin
    .umma

    File is empty & called

    .mountchk

    The transferred files are in .recordings

    You get the .hjm, .hjtsm, .nts & .ts files however the .ts file will play in media player so it's not encrypted.

    Not sure what the .hjm, .hjtsm & .nts files do but I don't need them to play

    The 3+ hour recording plays happily though the last few seconds of the file had an issue when I tried to FF to them, so I shoved the file through videoredo & did a quickstream fix which seems to have solved the problem, there's as much of the programme transferred as plays on the TV so I'm happy it all transferred.

    So I don't know what's going on with Mr Bitterman's recordings, sorry

    And I'm still no wiser as to why the files wouldn't transfer to the other USB stick, which is also FAT32 & has over 24Gb free

    Maybe it's because there are files & folders on it which aren't video files
