How to access files on USB?

[Cirrus]

Hi,

I've tried searching but not found an answer yet..

I have a new HD51 and thought that I could just plug a USB stick/drive in to one of the slots are read the media (movies/photos) from it. But no matter where I look I cannot find how to access the drive. Is it not possible, or am I doing something stupid..?

Cheers

What filesytem is the USB drive formatted in? If not fat32, you have to install the ntfs/exfat drivers

It's formatted as NTFS. Do you know where I can get the drivers and how to install them?

In the plugin menu, green to download/install, under drivers section. It is called "ntfs-3g". Don't forget to reboot after installing.

Great, thanks for the quick reply. I'll give it a go when the wife has finished watching the recorded episode of Bake Off :)
