Re: best format for USB delivery
 
update: made a new usb stick with the same files made by handbrake.
Went to the client and it worked!

At home I tried that bad usb stick. And yes, only chapter 1 played on my tv and on my pc.

When I inserted the stick in pc it detected a problem. after I did a scan, removed all the files and copied 1 chapter and this time it worked.

Maybe there was a problem in the beginning and I ignored it, don't remember it.

Re: best format for USB delivery
 
I see my last reply was about 6 years ago. I still deliver to usb 2.0 but tis time I have glitches in the video files when playing it.

I saw to speed was dropping from 6 MB/S to sometimes zero. Maybe a bad flash drive.

But the question is: do you still deliver in fat32 these days. I read that NTFS is "much" faster then FAT32 on a flash drive.

Re: best format for USB delivery
 
Sounds like a bad drive. I have been delivering MP4 on NTFS formatted USB drives for a couple of years now and not had any problems from any of my customers. I've been using Kingston 64GB drives which I can buy from a local supplier for around £3-£4 each. They are cheap but fast enough to play back 4K at around 30mb/s. I produce recordings of stage shows, and 64GB allows me to deliver an edited version of the show and also a 4K wide view of the show for anyone with a large 4K TV. It also gives me scope to experiment with HDR in h.265 in the future.
