I'm know I'm a bit late to the game here but I finally upgraded to 6.9 this morning only to find after an hour of frustration trying to get my PVR (MacMini Running EyeTV) to connect that there is no AFP in 6.9. I've been using UnRAid probably 10+ years since V4 when we had to hack AFP to get it to work and just when I got everything working painlessly BAM! While the MacMini works with SMB, EyeTV does not. SMB is slow and Recordings are seriously bad some unwatchable with SMB while AFP recordings are flawless. Beyond that I tried to back up the Flash Drive with 6.9 to my Mac and I could not without errors get past 3 files. Luckily I was able to delete all the Files on The Flash and copy the backed up 6.8 files back to it and it worked again TG.

That would be a great feature, to ignor moving files that are a certain type, modified before a certain date/time or etc. I can only program OTA tv shows for a day at a time because if I program for the next day or so the place holder files for the next day also get moved.

Some of those files, actually most of them, store things like window position and settings. If you turn them off writing them to servers you will notice every time you will have to open a directory/folder every time even though you left it open when disconnecting. And some are Apple desktop data bases. I think very few are used for actual file meta data now if any unless you're running some very old stuff, which I do at times.

I think one issue with these is that you can not delete an "Empty" share from the GUI because of these files even though hidden keep the share from being truly empty.

Yes, that's it. They both update/refresh often and I would think that over a 28 hour period that sooner or later they will match fairly close.

You mean the e-mailed reports and such? the e-mailed reports will calculate based on time elapsed and bytes done. the gui uses the instantaneous value, iirc... No, both are from the web GUI, no e-mails involved. One on the preclear web page that come up when you click on the plugin icon from the plugins page and the other from the log window on the web GUI that opens when you click on the "eye" icon on preclear plugin page.

I installed the plug in and almost done with my first preclear.. So far it works great except for a discrepancy in the MB/s between the web GUI and the Preclear log window. The web GUI shows 74 MB/s and the Preclear Log shows 123 MB/s. This difference has been consistent no matter what the speed is.

@xxredxpandaxx - Just came across this thread and noticed your a Mac Guy, as I am, and have an automation setup on UnRaid. I'm also looking to setup some form of automation, been using X10 but it is unreliable, and was just wondering what to use and how it is setup using your Mac & Unraid.

I did install it but and put a cron file in the powerdown folder and it did shut down but I can not find where I would have any control over it on the web GUI.. What am I missing?

It would also be great to stop a Cron, for example I have my media server shut down a 1:30 in the morning but there are times I want to record something that will go to 2am. I know I can do it via Telnet but having it on the web GUI would be great and much easier.

Same here, just moved to v6 on my backup server and looking to do the same on my media server. It is nice in v5 not having to interact with it to delete that since my media server is very active recording and deleting TV show every day. I also found this info which may be of interest: http://superuser.com/questions/306108/disable-creation-of-appledouble-files-on-mac-os-x

Thanks, got it working.

Is it possible to install just Screen, in v6.1.3, since I'd rather not install items I'm not in need of at the moment? Found this link: mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware64-current/slackware64/ap/screen-4.3.1-x86_64-2.txz

Sorry my brain was thinking OSX from another post. But the concept should be the same. If you do a "ls -la" on the directory/folder in telnet you should see a list of files with the extensions.

Create a new folder called "test" make a new folder inside that called "test1" or what ever you like to call them as long as they don't exist. You can do it right from OSX finder... Then run those commands in telnet to see if you can delete that. cd /mnt/disk9/Movies/ ls -la rm -r test

Movies and Apps are usually packages (folders/directories that look like a flat file in OSX) that have a number of files within them. They usually have a dot extension that may not show in OSX unless you have the finder prefs set to show them. Sorry for the confusion it was late and I was tired when I posted. Have you tried running new permissions on unRaid? Then try to delete again, maybe even reboot before delete.

Have you tried in telnet? The back slash in the code is because there is a space in the name. One other thing, I ran into the same thing a while ago... I thought the file was a file but in fact it was a bundle/folder which looks like a single file with an extension and contains other files. To delete it I had to add the extension as in .sparsebundle I could only delete it in telnet like below. LOG IN CHANGE DIRECTORY cd /mnt/disk9/Movies/Captain\ Amer LIST FILES (make sure your in the right place) ls -la DELETE DIRECTORY rm -r Captain\ Amer
