HI GUYS
USB drives


Anyone any ideas, just set up xbian(brilliant), i can watch movies from usb drives (FAT) and also 256MB portable Drive(FAT i think or NTFS) and also a 1 TB (NTFS) drive no problems at all - yippee

BUT i attach a 1TB MAC OS Journled formatted drive , it reads no problem
but it will only play first 2mins then stop dead
you can go back restart but it will not play whole movei

any ideas !!!

Also i noticed on my external USB powered hub that the 256Mb drive keeps dismounting and remounting by itsellf unless I have a usb mouse plugged in
again - any ideas

Please don't title your post with capitals, won't get you help any sooner.

Try using a powered USB hub

its powered as i said in my first

What's the exact model of the drive?

its an Iomega 2x 500Mb = 1TB USB external powered HDD
