It’s append two times… one time about some minutes ago.
Earlier this same afternoon whit two different my PENDRIVE.
The fist pendrive it’s a kingston 32GB… the second pendrive it another Kingstone datatravel G4 whit a different size 8GB.
This afternoon i have copyed a film on this pendrive (the 32GB Kingston) and i have watched from current osmc build. Apparently during the reproduction all it’s ok… no struttering… no issue on audio or sync issue (the video it’s a 720p x264 whit aabout 1000kb bitrate a 25fps… it should not be a file to create compatibility problems).
During playback whitout any advice i have see a notification on top right corner of my tv… somethinks speak about “Safe remove not avaialable” or somethings similar.
I didn’t think so, also because he didn’t create the movie playback.
Immediatelly when the film it’s finished i have obtain a weird situation… kodi it’s not back to the list of file present on pendrive but it’s back to file browser menù.
Apparently the pendrive it’s like was no longer available… like auto-unmonted.
I have tryed to disconnect from my Pi2 and i have attach the same pendrive to my pc and… surprise surprise:
ALL FILE IT’S LIKE LOST… apparently from windows the pendrive appears to contain files ( i see it’s some space occupied) but on Windows explorer all file it’s disappears.
I have lost everythings… (anyway nothing I can’t recover somehow… problably a lot directly from my pc lol).
After this episode i have used a windows tools from try to restore some files… i try to use “DiskDigger” and i have restored correctly about 10 file mp3 from the root of pendrive (some of them I didn’t have on my pc as a backup) and after that i have tryed to format this same pendrive as low level.
For another purpose test about some minutes ago i have tryed same things whit another my pendrive (the second Kingstone datatravel 8GB).
This second pendrive it’s it’s relatively new … I will have used it a couple of times to install some program on some friend’s pc.
Anyway i have free some space and i have copyed in this second pendrive a totally different film… and about some minutes i have tryed to watch from my Pi2 whit osmc.
And… it’s exactly what happened this afternoon happened…
It’s very strange… how it’s possible ?
During reproduction same notification about “Safe Remove not avaialable” or somethings similar.
I was able to watch the whole movie without major problems but immediatelly after the end same exact situation.
It’s not back to file list but it’s back to root of kodi video browser… and the pendrive it’s no more available… also here like it’s auto-unmounted.
Also here… i have tryed to attach to my pc and same exact issue.
Apparently there’s space occupied but there’s no file present from Windows explorer.
How it’s possible ? It’s the current osmc as some feature like auto-unmonted device can create this issue ? Maybe try to disconnect the drive during playback and create this drive corruption ?
has anyone had similar experiences with other kodi devices for example ?
