    Hello. I have a problem with my zgemma h9s on OpneATV. I would like to expand the memory with a microSD 8 or 16 GB. I have a SanDisk card. I put it in the slot in the decoder, run Menu-settings-system-storage devices-initialization. I see the card, then click OK, the disk configuration is shown - I press Initialize. Here you can see the progress bar and finally it shows: Title: Expanding Memory on Zgemma h9s with OpenATV - Issues with SanDisk MicroSD 8GB/16GB Cards still nothing I can do, nothing. I tried on two cards and the same thing all the time. Can anyone help?

    You tried to format these cards on the computer on Fat32 and repeat in the tuner

    I do not recommend SD cards for heavy use - I assume that you will have timeshift turned on. The card will probably last a few months, then it will win. A relatively safe solution are 2.5-inch drives. A year ago I connected such a drive, no problems.
