Omnia2 only reads FAT card (?)

[Guest x2h]

is it true that Omnia2 only reads FAT32 format sotrage cards but not NTFS format cards? Is there a way to make it read NTFS cards? I have a >2.0GB movie file that I wish to play with the touch player in Omnia2, but only if the card format is NTFS, because FAT32 cards cannot accept files >2.0 GB. I just fund out that once I format the card to NTFS, Omnia2 doesn't recognize any card. I have to format it back to FAT32, then Omnia2 recognizes it again, but I can't transfer the movie file into the card because of the file size limit. Therefore I am stuck. Any solution? Thanks!!!

Windows Mobile supports FAT16/32 only...not NTFS. You can format with FAT32 though and that has a 4GB file size limit.

use exFat (which is recommend for such usage) and supported according wikipedia since WM 6.0

at many Video cameras you could run in such issues with the wrong file system.

btw: NTFS has never been supported and will never be supported

thank you both for the quick responses. I will give it a try.

Update: I formated with exFAT and it is not recognized by Omnia either. :-( How do I format it with FAT32 and have a 4GB file size limit? Thanks!

Just format it using a desktop/notebook/netbook PC. FAT32 supports UPTO 4GB so you should be fine. There is nothing special you have to do.
