Markus,
I tried the latest version 2.11b on my new 750GB SATA drive and have some comments:
- I first deleted Filer.db in order to start afresh. I used my existing Filer.ini (with IgnoreMP3Dir=0) As I have nearly 2000 mp3's and nearly 400GB of recordings the scan took about 5 minutes (which was not a problem). The problem started when the square disc icon (top left of screen) disappeared and I thought that the scan was complete and that I would have full control of the Toppy; I did not! It simply froze and I could not do anything. As I thought something had gone wrong I "forced" the Toppy off then back on (with no TAPs loading) and checked the settings folder: There was no filer.db! So I started again (with no other TAPs running) and after another 5 minutes the disc icon went away and once more I had no control. This time I waited a few more minutes and eventually the Toppy responded to the remote control keys. Hooray!
It seems (and I may be wrong) that it was still [heavily] processing information after the icon had "prematurely" gone away, i.e.too soon. Previously (v2.1) scanning never froze the Toppy (not even momentarily) and you could still do other things. I don't know whether or not all this has something to do with my new drive or is a fundamental characteristic of the latest Filer. Of course once this initial (and once only) scanning phase is complete it's all hunky dory as before. - Cut function won't work on the 5800 because we don't have the |< and >| keys so presumably you can't emulate these keys (plus cut function on 5800 is RKEY_F4). Perhaps, for the 5800, this option should be switched off.
