Hi everyone,
Thank you for all the amazing work on Magic Lantern.
I have a problem on MLVFS.
Basically I have quite a big project - 6Tb of data on a Thunderbolt 2 hard drive, on which I use MLVFS on to create a mounted folder with all my files as DNGs.
I then access the data through DaVinci Resolve, find my files, import them, etc. and start editing/colouring. 
After a while, the MLVFS mounter folder just disappears from Finder.  Files in Davinci Resolve don't answer any more, and trying to recreate a mounted MLVFS folder does not work.  There's nothing else to do but unmount/remount hard drive.
This makes it impossible to do the edit with MLFVS as the issue happens regularly and quickly.
The only closely resembling issue i've found are these:

But I couldn't find a definite answer.   
I am on OS X Yosemite 10.10.4, using Fuse 2.8.0
Thanks for your help and sorry if the answer exists out there and I didn't find it.

Hi there everyone,

Thank you to everyone responsible for bringing us ML, such an amazing hack. 

I am using 5d3 with ML nightly build 1.1.3 to record RAW footage continuous 1920x1080 with Sandisk 160mb/s cards and Lexar 1066x (mostly 128Gb cards).  Everything works great, except the following issue that I find quite hard to handle: 

I often end up filling up a full compact flash card by recording RAW in MLV format, and the recording stops with the error message "Card really exFat?".  The final shot is corrupted and unusable when back in post.


As you can imagine this can really be tough in some cases.... Can anyone advise on any ways to tackle this problem?

My workflow at the moment is as follows: in order to prevent corrupt frames as I need as much CPU available for the recording as possible, so I record in Hack No Prev mode, with all global draw/overlays disabled.   In general I leave on the "Status When Recording" to "Icon" which has been a success until now in that I did not get any corrupted frames.  I need to try the "Debug" mode to see if it gives me corrupted frames or not, as that mode gives the amount of space that the current recording is taking.   By being aware of how much is left on the card before starting recording, this could be a workaround, but definitely not ideal.

Also, one other thing that bugs me is that after finishing an MLV recording, the amount of space left on compact flash card does not update automatically.  I need to restart camera in order to make it update the correct number.

Would be great to have the community's input on this... I hope solutions are possible. 

Many thanks again.
