The external drive uses USB 3.0 and his computer has a 2.0 port. Does this cause viewing issues? He also tried using his son's computer that does have a 3.0 usb port, and they still won't play.
I had him fetch a newer USB driver for his Win7 OS and it didn't help.
The movies do play when saved to and activated on his internal drives, so I'm not thinking it's a player issue but maybe he needs a different one for an external drive? He's considering a pci-e 3.0 USB card, but I'm not convinced that the USB port is the issue.
Anyone have some suggestions here?
