USB Ntfs read only

[erdem_ua]

There is no NTFW write support on TV.
Might be some thing could be improved via NTFS-3G package but it will be slow on TV.

I don't tried to compile yet but I think it's will be good to have ntfs-3g in our toolchain.
I think libfuse required for that...
I don't know if it's already added before but IT will be good to have ntfs-3g tool at svn.

It's hard to tell here. You can visit wikipedia about definition of svn (subversion).
SamyGO has SVN server that you can compile tools/toolchain with it...

I would like to dig into the write access to the USB with some additional questions:
It seems that NTFS-3g is not supported for RW access: what about FAT?
You are talking (titus0m) about write access to the disk that is mounted using NFS: I would like to have the write access to the USB plugged on to the TV. Is it something which is feasible?

In my configuration, my TV is far from everything and connected to my network by WiFi. (To slow connection to read movies directly from my laptop)
I have a hard disk which is permanently connected to the TV and which I used as a library with movies.
My idea is to be able to transfer movies from my laptop to the hard-disk using the the copy command while connected with telnet.

Hi Dimitri,

FAT is fully supported R/W. NFS-mounted devices are supported, and so is samba (CIFS on windows, if I'm not mistaken.) The problem is to get the data to the TV. In a normal SamyGO install you have telnet access, but no ftp, samba server or NFS server. Of course it is possible to compile these servers for SamyGO, but AFAIK so far nobody has done that. So, I think you will have to remove your disk every now and then to put new data on it.
Another method might be to speed up your wifi network in your home. I stream my home videos (full HD, bitrates up to 25Mbit) from an NFS-mounted NAS to the tv through wifi. (802.11N, 300mbit (at least in theory)). Works like a charm, I just can't read and write simultaneously to the NAS without getting hiccups, but that's a speed limit of the NAS (ARMv4 processor, dead slow), not the TV or the network.

HTH
