Hi
I am a little out of my depth and wondered if someone could help.
I have captured some treasured family memories for an old Aunt from a VHS source using a 4k cam link. The average file size is 17 gig for the 2 hours +
I bought a portable media player with HDMI out to connect to her tv via a NTFS formatted USB drive. If I play a 4 gig file size no issues but it fails if I try the 17 gig file. I do not really want to convert as the original quality isn't great.
Can anyone point me in the right direction re a suitable portable player etc
Thank you in anticipation
Andrew

you say you don't want to convert the file to a smaller size, but have you actually tried?
It is possible to bring this down from 17gb without losing quality. -
Keeping a 17gb rip from a VHS source makes no sense.
Downsize the file with an x264 encoder, with a CRF 18, and you have a usable file without visible quality loss.
You can use clever FFmpeg-GUI for this. -
