The size is a lie.

They were never 8GB and 2GB, they were 128MB. Open them up and read the flash chip to see the real size.

I would too recommend opening up the player and finding out the chip numbers. You should be able to search for them to find out exactly what size they are. Players have been known to be hacked to show more memory than it physically has installed inside the player.

But did ALL the data play? Hacked memory shows that you have loaded all the 8GB, but anything over the 128MB is a ghost file. When you try to play it, you will end up with Format Error.

1gbit = 128 mbyte

Your players are 128MB.
