Well, that is new info. |

If you are using ntfs then the issue is not the one I suspected. I |
| 32 |
know nothing about samba+big files, I did never use it with big files, |
| 33 |
but I haven't hear of such a problem before. I'd blame the wireless |
| 34 |
connection, but if the problem is only with that file, then that should |
| 35 |
not the be proble either. |

Anyway, I don't know if the winxp builtin feature supports multi |
| 38 |
part zip files, so I would bet that using split+copy would be the |
| 39 |
easiest thing to do. You can still compress it into a single zip file |
| 40 |
before splitting it, that way you might save some bandwidth (or not, |
| 41 |
since most of the dvd contents is already compressed via codecs |
| 42 |
anyway). |
