Hi
I have been running a binary comparison between files on my Android phone and the same files which I have copied across to my PC using MTP. The files are photos and videos.
436 photos and 71 videos are identical however 4 videos are not.
The results for one of those video comparisons are below
I decided to try copying the 4 videos from my Android phone over to another folder on my PC – the binary comparison shows differences.
I then decided to compare the two videos which had now been transferred to my PC – they were identical.
It seems something is different in those 4 files after they get transferred from my phone to my PC. Whatever the differences are, they are not random as the exact same differences happen to the files when retransferring them.
I have restarted my phone and restarted my PC a number of times in between the initial transfer and todays test.
I run a quick test and everything matches, the CRC check shows differences
Phone – Sony Z2 with Lollipop
PC – Windows 8.1 fully updated.
