I have an ext3 formatted USB drive that I attach to my Foxsat HDR. I have converted several videos using AV2HDR and I want to copy them to the USB ext3 drive using Win 7. I have Ext2 Volume Manager installed and it mounts the disc, however it refuses to let me write to it, and says it’s write protected ! I put the same USB ext3 drive on Ubuntu and it says the same thing…
Anyone with ideas 🙄

EXT2 Volume Manager can be run in Read mode only.
See Tools/Service Management.
purfect ! thx
Does anyone know how I cam transfer file to an EXT 3 drive using vista.
I downloaded EXT 2 content manager and while I can see the drive now (before I couldn’t) I cant write to it.
Anyone got a Noddy’s guide?

Have you looked at Grahams comment just above !
..and while we are on this subject. I have copied 3 videos to my USB hard drive attached to my FOXSAT HDR. I used AV2HDR and created the correct files. However 2 of the videos work, but the third does not. I have reformatted, renamed, etc, etc,. They are all of the same series and play perfectly if I connect the USB drive to my PC, yet the third will not play on the FOXSAT HDR. All that happens is I get a click sound and the channel returns to whatever is select in the EPG. Any thoughts from anyone ?

That sounds like one for the maestro (Raydon
)Try using the .ts file first output by AV2HDR as a source for AV2HDR and give it a different name (Sort of AV2HDR squared
)

I will give that a try,,in the meantime I just noticed something..the nts file is “zero” and the others are about 5K..this must be a clue. Nope got that wrong they vary is size around 10 MBytes or so

This has worked in the past, open the original in tsmuxergui and remux to a .mts file. Open this in AV2HDR and see if that works.

Brilliant, worked perfectly, with one exception, it changed the video size from 1920 X 1080 to 1280 X 720…I cannot see anyway to keep the original, as it seems to take directions from a script, which cannot be edited…hmmmm
Nope got that wrong,, original was 1280 X 720, so it actually retrained the file size, I had selected the wrong one.. 😳
Sorry to but in.
Re my earlier post
‘Fraid the earlier fix on page 1 of the thread did not work
Vista will not let me put files from my computer onto the drive
Says the disc is write protected.
It’s a 1/2 TB hard drive with no lugs or tabs to pull
Any help would be really appreciated.
Cheers
Paul
In windows file explorer right click on the drive icon.
Choose properties/security. Check Read and Write are both ticked.
Sorry Graham
No security tab in properties
From the help section of vista
‘The Security tab is not available on file and folder properties in Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Home Basic, and Windows Vista Starter.’
I tried the following in keeping with the spirit of your advice
Properties – sharing – advanced sharing – permissions and I have ticked all of the boxes ‘Full Control’ ‘Change’ and ‘Read’ under the ‘everyone’ user / group.
Still getting the write protected message.
Also in bottom panel of EXT2 volume manager I right clicked on the drives properties and it says
Status:Online,Linux,codepage:utf8,Readonly
Also I have disabled User Access Control
Does it mean that when I formatted the disc in Ubuntu it was write protected and I have to reformat it now I’ve removed the protections?
Stumped.

Don’t have any PC’s with Vista, only Win 7 or XP. Bit stumped, presumably you are running as administrator.
