MC11: Incorrect File Size
« on: June 24, 2005, 01:12:20 am »
I just noticed this but when I add my videos into MC, the total file size is incorrect.

In explorer, when highlighting all the vids, it shows 137GB for a total size
In MC, the same vids show a total of 45GB.

It's not really a big deal but there is something wrong with it.

Most of the vids are a GB+ in size. Maybe that has something to do with it.

edit: files that are really large don't get calculated correctly. everything else, like time, is correct.

My biggest video file is about 4 GB. This is what Explorer says: 3.97 GB (4,270,587,904 bytes). MC displays 4.0 GB. Seems to be OK.

I have about 110 TV show episodes and a pilot movie in one folder branch. The total size is about 40 GB. Explorer and MC report the same size.

Have you checked the sizes of individual files? Are they correct?

I guess no one has tested MC with files that are over 10 GB.

How come the files are so big?

You could mail some example files to me and Matt too.   ;D  (...a bad joke)
