jaybeee: Rescan your disk. Off the top of my head its in debug > disk info > free space, click your joystick.
This problem usually occurs when you delete files via windows explorer.
Mmmm:

One problem though: when I started to record it displayed a message saying 'low disk space'. I didn't understand why cos there was 12gb free (I've got a H120 [20gb]). So I thought I'd just carry on, but after 11mins it turned itself off.
The settings used were to use time split of 2hrs with source being line-in.
I installed the latest offical Rockbox daily build and recorded my tape no problems just now.
So I guess it must be something in your code that has interrogated my disk space, thought there was not much left (must've though it was really low to only allow ~11mins), and stopped recording when it reached it's apparent critical level.

Yeah, what whatboutbob said except its in info > rockbox info and you have to press the on button.
It's something to do with windows and reporting filesize and it telling the player what the filesize is and getting it wrong or so I've been told. It only happens with the REP because it includes a safety feature courtesy of Vinylivo, that checks the remaining diskspace so that it doesn't just record right off the end and cause probs.

Ahh, well spotted! I hadn't noticed that, thanks! I'll fix it sometime...something to do with the AGC patch I think...

So it is. A 'hidden' feature! cos that info page gives no indication that a scan disk can be performed. All sorted now. I'm gonna be recording some stuff tonight, so I'll test out the REP later ;)
Febs:
Maybe it would be a good idea either to scan the disk space automatically when recording is started, or at least to duplicate the scan option on the recording settings screen so that it is easy to update.

...or auto-scan when entering the recording screen (it can take a while to scan). Quite a few people (myself included) have been caught out by this now.
