Olive video will not transfer t oUSB drive - Rapidrob - 03-11-2020

I just did a video of 13.2 GB  MP4 video and can view it as an MP4 on my computer with no issues. Linux Lite 4.6
If I try to send it to a 150 GB USB thumb drive it fails after 8 minutes saying the file is too large?
I tried another 50 GB USB drive and it does the same thing. If I say to retry, it loads to 1 second and then says there are 500,000 minutes to finish?
I do not see the problem.

What is the format of the usb drives, If they are fat or ntfs then individual files are limited to a maximum size of 4 GB.

You will need to reformat the usb drives to ext4 or another format that supports large files to transfer your large mp4 file.

I did not know that! Thank you for the info. I will re-format the 150 GB USB Thumb dive and see if that works.
