[A-110] CHALLENGE!!!!
Fix this problem:

- PCH A-110 WD Caviar Green 1TB USB connected to Toshiba Laptop with Win 7 and external Hitachi Simple Drive 1TB.
- Copy all the video files from PCH to the external drive (half a day, btw)
- latest firmware update plus format PCH's internal WD
- copy only the HD videos back to the PCH
- PCH says "could not play" (got 80 movies, non of them playing)
- Toshiba laptop can't play anything back from the Hitachi drive, not even the 100 Mb divx movies
- my other Acer lapotop with Win 7 x64 same, all the video players are stop working instantly
- DivFix, VDub, DivxRepair, MKVTool crashing instantly or "not a video file", "contains no video" etc.
- did try to copy some files to the Acer's hard drive and open them with Adobe CS4 PremierePro, AfterEffects etc., no luck
- video converters, no luck
- Hitachi USB connected to the PCH, no luck

First right answer wins something really cooool!

Thanks!

What format are the HD videos in? Post the MediaInfo results for one of the files.

Did the videos ever work from the PCH internal drive?

RE: [A-110] CHALLENGE!!!!
The HD videos ara in mkv and avi format.

MediaInfo (file on the external Hitachi drive):

General
Complete name : G:\HD\300.mkv
File size : 10.1 GiB


MediaInfo (file copied to the Acer's hard drive):


General
Complete name : D:\30 Rock 3x01.avi
File size : 175 MiB


Before all the videos worked fine.
I did copy an other HD video from an other external hard drive with the same method to the PCH, video playing fine.

You're missing all of the details from your MediaInfo scan.
