HDD Free space missing, for various boxes, on OpenVix and OpenATV

As some of you know, the Edision OS Mega has been found to suffer disc free space loss, which can be very substantial, just from typical activities - programme recording, timeshifting, live programme pause, e.g. See:

or

It has now been reported that the problem is more widespread, and is affecting other boxes that have been tested that are on Vix and ATV (but not Pli). Apparently it is a problem within Enigma 2.

For the Edision OS Mega, the missing hdd free space can be reclaimed (until going missing again) by a hard restart or a file system check. For a cure, the current suggestion is that not only is a forthcoming version of E2 required, the hdd also has to be re-initialised.

Cheers!
 
Vix 5.0.004 is available now to download and does seem to have fixed the HDD issues, i had to transfer my recordings to my PC before updating VIX as you need to intialize the HDD which deletes everything on there
 
You may want to remove the wos links not sure how you posted them as the site normally kills the links
Is every helpful link considered as advertising here then?
I'm not being flippant, just asking as a newcomer, I almost posted a similar link in another forum yesterday.
 
Got it, thanks. I always prefer to quote and copy/paste the info anyway in case the links go down or get removed.
