I have a friend who recently bought a Samsung Minidisk with a USB connection to his computer. His intention was to record his voice to synchronise with his home made videos which he would then import to the computer and then apply to his ADobe Premier timeline. Everything went well when he made the recording but his Samsung would not let him copy the file over into the computer. Having spoken to Samsung they informed him that the USB connection was to take materials from his computer (usually ripped CD tracks) and to place them on the Minidisk. Files could not be transferred back again, neither could newly created files on the Minidisk because it might breach copyright eg. making a second copy from the ripped tracks placed onto the Minidisk.
While we understand the copyright precautions it seems very wrong to limit him (or anyone) from being able to transfer his own voice files by the best connection, USB and digital.
Has anyone heard of this, perhaps with another minidisk? Is there a workaround, for example if he has the Minidisk drivers installed will any more general media transfer software do the job? If so, which?
Any ideas? Thanks in anticipation.
