Transfering an avi file to the archos
I have tried to move a 1.42 gb movie into my archos 700 . When opening the file on the Archos, it has copied only 1 hr 57 mins and not the 2 hr. 35 from the desktop avi file. Please can you advise me as to why the entire file is not being copied over. I look forward to hearing from you asap. Thanks. Sharo

Hello sharonolins,
First of all i want you to check is that you have enough space in archos 700. if you do i want you to delete the first part of the Avi file that you downloaded but its wasn't the whole file. and then try to re download the whole file sometime archos 700 go to sleep while you are moving files and it gets stuck so dont let the device go to sleep mode while you are moving the files.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Thanks.
the full size is transferred as when I click on AV700 on my computer screen and go into Video, I can play the entire film. However when I disconnect the archos from my computer, then go into Video, it only shows a time which is not the entire film.
can you please tell me what site i go to to download updated software for the archos 700. Maybe I need that ?
It is possible that the archos can't handle that big of a file. You can try to compress the file or see if the player can handle a smaller file type.
I have played it on my computer and it plays perfectly. When I play it on the Archos it also plays perfectly except that it doesnt play the entire file I have transferred . One file transferred approx. 2 hr 58 and only played 1 hr 57, the other file was aprox 1 hr 51 but only played 1 hr 09. What I need to know is why it wont play the amount that has been transferred. |When i click on info on my archos, it gives the correct readings , i.e. the duration is correct, the codex is mpg4 which is correct but yet still wont play the proper duration
I would try either resetting it or updating the software of it.
