   I can't get myfox t2 to read files on a memory stick via the usb slot.
   If i try: Memory, Settings, System data, Storage I get Internal HDD and cruzer edge (this being the memory stick i am using).

   Clicking on HDD gives me access to recorded files but the Cruzer Edge won't open so i am unable to play films stored on the memory stick.

   I also have a Fox T2 receiver which will read the same stick.

   can anyone help

   regards

   The fact that an HD-FOX T2 will read it but an HDR-FOX T2 won't is very odd. Have you tried both USB ports on the HDR-FOX T2 (one at front under a flap, the other at the back)?

   How was the stick formatted? Do you know if it is FAT32 or ext2 or ext3?

   if you connect the stick to a PC, Right click on the USB stick root folder in windows file explore using the drive letter that appears and choose properties what does the answer say ?

   It will be one of the above that Martin mentions.

   FAT32

   Is one of the files larger than 4GB ?

   I managed to fix the problem.
   It was due to my own foolishness.
   I wasn't pressing the blue button.

   Thanks for the help.

   regards

    We all make silly mistakes at times. What you were describing was puzzling so thank you for providing the resolution.
