I bought a DVD player recently that can play video files (xvid, mp4, etc) directly from USB memory sticks.

On one stick, all files in the same xvid codec, some played, others didn't.

The original files on HD all checked out perfectly with GSpot, but once copied to USB memory sticks, all stayed the same size, but GSpot could not identify any codecs on several. Copied back to HD they are still "corrupted".

I have tried several USB memory sticks, including high quality big name brands, and they all give the same results.

Copying other types of files (jpg, gif, doc, txt, etc) results in no errors.

Flash Drive Tester say all the sticks are AOK.

Any ideas?
