Software => HFS ~ HTTP File Server => Topic started by: danfm on April 15, 2012, 01:50:01 AM

First of all thanks a lot those who made the HFS, it is an awesome utility.
I've set up a HFS file server on a PC in order to transfer files to my Nokia Lumia 710 phone.
Everything works really great and I can transfer/stream all kind of files ( video, pdf, office...) however when I try transferring .jpg files I hit some kind of limit.
Smaller jpg's ( few hundreds of kBs) are no issue, I can access them on the PC using the Lumia which then get displayed on the phone's screen.
However, if a jpg file is few MB in size ( 3MB for example ), I can browse to the file but it does not want to be transferred and displayed on the phone's screen.
I did go to "other options" and checked "open directly in browser" and also looked through the "limits" option but see no limits set there.
I do need to say that I do not have this limit/issue with any other mobile device I have, only with the Lumia 710.
Now, someone may say this is not HFS issue, talk to Lumia people and you may be right, but my hope is that someone here is using that phone and had this issue.
Thanks

try this: put the file somewhere else on the net, not HFS, and see if the problem persists.
if it persists, try to transfer it to the phone memory, and see if it can open it locally at least.

That was a good test, tanks.
I've put a larger (3 MB ) JPG file on my web site and tried accessing it using the phone's web browser. Same thing happened. The phones's browser did not want to open and display it.
So, this is definitely not HFS issue, but either Lumia's or Windows mobile's 7.5 browser issue.
Did anyone else tried opening a few MB JPG on a windows phone using the web browser on the phone?
Thanks
