Strange behaviour after Disk Full error while recording

simon142857: Your former problem was not the same as is discussed in this thread.
I was recording, and when the disc got full - because it WAS full - strange things started to happen for me. This is what Petur is talking about.

simon142857:
oops!

got it.

petur:
It isn't dircache related (it always happens with dircache disabled)

discussing this with jhMikeS, it would seem that the file isn't closed properly because the flushing of the write buffer of the filesystem fails.

Davide-NYC:
I just ran a test to see if this was fixed after Petur's recent commit regarding this problem.

I nearly filled my disk and then recorded to WAV until I received the "Disk Full" warning.
I pressed stop, left the recording screen and was able to browse files.
[edit] I was even able to play the recording I had just made.
That is untrue. It just played the next file down the list. Which I think is yet another problem as it does not give the user any feedback that there is a problem.

I then plugged the player into USB but was unable to transfer the file to my PC.
I got a "file or directory corrupt" error.

Sorry.  :-\

[edit] I just realized this is totally the wrong place for this comment. I didn't read the full thread. Where should I post this feedback? I can't find the Disk-Full-Corrupt-Recording-File bug on the tracker anywhere!

a more short reply because the forum ate my previous reply :(

- Using dircache or not?
- what does chkdsk say the problem is?
