Hi, I'm running dual boot windows and fedora, and my problem is that if I obtain video files through linux and save them on a FAT partition, when I go into windows and try to play them I get errors. Usually the video is choppy and a good portion of the movie is chopped off.
Did you download the same file in both Windows and Linux, and to the same partition, and from the same source? This way, you can know where the problem is. Also: what where the errors?
Hey thanks for the replies. The file was downloaded to a shared windows/linux fat32 partition while I was in Linux. I opened it with vlc and everything went well, but when I booted into Windows and opened with vlc, the video was choppy and the last 20 minutes were missing.
I'm guessing by your responses that this is an anomaly?
