  • Format Thumb Drive for H.264 to play on LG TV

    Posted by Adam Berch on July 29, 2019 at 10:17 pm

    Hi,

    I exported a 2 hour timeline to H.264 HD.

    I have a 32 GB Thumbdrive that I formatted to ExFAT.

    I dragged the 2 Hour H.264 (MP4) file onto the thumb drive then I plugged the thumb drive into my LG TV so I can watch it on TV.

    It won’t play on the TV. In fact it says “Problem on the USB Drive.”

    What am I doing wrong? How can I get it to work?

    I am on a Mac Operating System High Sierra.

    Thanks in Advance

    I’m guessing your teevee can’t read ExFAT. Try an old format, like FAT 16, and attempt it again.

    And, to save time, maybe copy a small test file to the drive, one compressed using the same specs as your two-hour opus.
