Our reader Sylvain instructed me a a few FTP and Smartphone switch points with A7IV firmware 2.00
I’m a no person having fun with my A7IV because it got here out and I’ve been utilizing ftp to switch information from my digicam to my NAS as a part of my workflow. After upgrading to firmware 2.00 I did a FTP switch to unload my card and most of my video information bigger than 4 gb have been corrupted. Being an embedded developer myself I additional investigated and all identified to the A7IV firmware 2.00 corrupting the information that it sends to any FTP servers (despite the fact that the information on CFExpress Sort B have been OK).
After speaking with Sony help at this time over the telephone they confirmed they have been capable of reproduce the issue solely with firmware 2.00 and he instructed me they might ship the difficulty to Japan for a repair with no extra inromation. I additionally noticed somebody within the Fb “Sony A7IV Customers” group that had the identical problem as me (German man). The agent that I talked to at this time mentioned another person yesterday opened a ticket for a similar problem with FTP corrupting information.
The agent instructed me that sending information to smartphones was additionally impacted however I didn’t see that problem up to now (can’t switch XAVC S 4K/XAVC S HD anyway…). Most likely sending a number of information would ultimately set off the difficulty, I din’t strive.
Oh, and if you wish to reproduce the difficulty merely have a couple of information like video information bigger than 16gb and switch it to any ftp. My 29Gb easter video that I remodeled the weekend by no means made it by with each makes an attempt that I attempted. The file on the CFExpress kind B is okay and readable
Hopefully Sony can repair this quickly…
