XBMC4Xbox

I use FlashFXP to transfer from my PC to my XBOX. My dash is XBMC4XBOX. Every time I try to move folders from partition F to G (or vice versa), FlashFXP tells me there was a move failiure.

Any way to fix this? I wanna move a bunch of folders on partition F to G without having to re-transfer from my PC.

you can do this from within Xbmc,using file manager

I tried it but it is super slow

If you are into Python, you could try using shutil.copytree(), although I don't how fast it would be compared to the other methods.

Since you're moving from one partition to the other it's a copy to destination, then on success remove source. Since the HDD will be busy with both reading and writing, it will probably half as slow.

I don't think you can move files through FTP, and probably that's what FlashXP is trying to tell you.

If I was to do it, I would download the entire thing to the PC, upload on G: and remove from F: - that way you would get full speeds in reading and then writing, but in the end it might take about the same time, depending on the HDD performance versus network performance.

Yes can be painfully slow Just set it up to at bedtime,leave it overnight.
Yes you can move files from within FlashXP.cant remember if you can c/p or just copy.If you have the room its always best to copy,confirm,then delete.

I got it figured out. Thanks guys
