I'm putting movies from my computer onto a Lacie FUEL. The Lacie Fuel is basically a WIRELESS hard drive that you can connect to on your devices to play media from. The only problem is, when I open up the app, there are some files there that didn't take the name I gave it. If I go to the details tab when right clicking on properties on the FILE, it has the same name as the one on the media app but renaming that doesn't change it in there either. I've looked through the files with MKVToolNixGUI and tried both deleting and renaming the title field in there, but still no luck. I'm not sure where it's pulling the name from nor how to change it. Does anyone know?Ok, so I just put one of the movies as an MKV file on the drive (I'm converting the MKV files to MP4 files and putting them on then.) and the MKV file showed up with the proper name while the MP4 files say the WRONG name. Some file systems don't allow lengthy filenames. They trim it down and rename it. It may be one of those scenarios. But i'm not sure.Taking a quick look at the product page, it supports .MP4 but not MKV for it's own video features, so given your MKV file remained unchanged, I suspect that the device itself may be internally cataloging supported file types, renaming them to a hash or something.

How to stop it though, I've not found anything on that. It's difficult to predict how these "Smart" External Hard Drives will behave sometimes, and any inbuilt functionality like this is definitely not well documented to the point of knowing how to prevent it in most CASES.
