</div>FYI, this question is completely unrelated to gstreamer.<br>
<br>
There are two ways to access NTFS filesystems on Linux (that I know of):<br>
<br>
1. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS-3G" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS-3G</a><br>
<br>
2. There's an in-kernel read-only `ntfs' driver. It's in the mainline<br>
Linux kernel so all you have to do is flip on the config option and<br>
recompile. Or maybe you already have the driver but you haven't loaded<br>
it; try<br>
<br>
# modprobe ntfs<br>
<br>
But keep in mind that the in-kernel driver is READ ONLY, so if you<br>
want read/write, you MUST use ntfs-3g.<br>
<a href="http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download/" target="_blank">http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download/</a><br>
<br>
Please try to diagnose your problems first and post them to a relevant<br>
list, as filesystem drivers on embedded systems is a pretty far<br>
stretch away from a media framework...<br>
