Need suggestions on how to move video files

Asked By Brian K Hetrick 0 points N/A Posted on - 07/10/2014

Hi everybody,

I am very interested in recording videos of events and programs. I have bought Sony Handycam HDR-PJ810 and recorded few videos. But I am having a hard time transferring these from my camcorder to the computer. Each file is more than 5 GB.

Do I need to convert these into different format? How can we upload to websites? We don't want to publish in you tube, but instead our personal / other websites. How can I find out the ways to do this? Any help / suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Need suggestions on how to move video files

Hello,

PC is easily able to move files more than 5GB or bigger. But the problem with files larger than 4GB is, several drive systems doesn’t support single files with more than 4GB, for example, on FAT32 system, you can’t copy or move 4GB or greater files. In such case, either re-format your drive into exFAT or NTFS format. Otherwise, you can use software like TeraCopy, UltraCopy etc.

If you want to upload the file on your website, that all depends on the structure of your website. You can use FTP for this purpose. It is a reliable method for uploading large files to websites. Here’re some good FTP clients for your purpose.

• FileZilla
• SmartFTP

You can also upload the file by splitting into several pieces. You can use any splitter that will be supported on the server of the website. For example, HJSplit, JFSplit etc. are built on Java and Java is supported on all platform.
