Will exFAT work for recording?

[coolkidirish]

I have a HDD which i want to use for recording, and the instructions for my H.2S box say format in FAT32, but I have a PC which only gives exFAT as an option.

will that work?

thanks

dont think so,find another pc with fat32 then one can setup on box.

You dont need to do that!
You only need fat32 for flashing.
Quick format the drive on a pc.
Ntfs is fine
Box off
Drive into back of box.
Box on
Menu
Setup
System
Storage devices
Initialisation
Initialise ur drive
Reboot and mount and paths will be set

have done all sucmnsee steps for my new h2 s but not quite sure what he means by mount and paths will be set? can anyone help me out?. cheers mick also im using a 64gb sandisk ultra usb stick

When u initialise the drive and reboot using my image the drive mounts as hdd. And paths for recording/epg and everything else are set automatically on reboot.
U dont have to mount or set paths.

ok thanks for fast reply what if im using another image such as the new wooshbasebuild v3.00? will this stillbe the same procedure also? cheers Mick

 

[sucmnsee]

His is atv. Should be similar tho.
U may have to convert to ext4 and mount and set paths tho

 

[Peopeers]

Thanks for reply again have converted to ext4 then rebooted not sure what I need to do once rebooted or look for any ideas cheers Mick

Try and find mount.
Then find recording and make sure set to drive.
Best bet is go to wooshmans page! He'll talk u through it step by step dude
