Memory stick format

[eddies]

Hi Guys,

Besides the default FAT32, will SKyView recognize and read an NTFS formatted memory stick?

Reason I ask is that I have a 32G stick that I carry around all the time and its a real pain to have to also carry a second 4G stick just to load map updated etc.


Cheers
Eddie

I tried a passport drive (NTFS) and it didn't work. But there may be other issues there.

Just try it.

I does not work.

I was wondering/hoping that Dynon might chime in or perhaps acknowledge that larger capacity memory sticks would be supported in the future.

Not a big issue I guess, just annoying.

SkyView does not support NTFS, which is a proprietary, Microsoft only file system, and SkyView does not run Windows. You can format a 32G or larger stick FAT32 and it will work just fine.
