Increase Timeout for network saved files

Post by Steve001 »

Hi,

After updating my nasdrive software a couple of weeks ago, the new version spins the drives down if not used for a while. If i try and access a project when in this state flowcode says that the file is no longer available and removes it from the recant list this is mostly on a Saturday morning.

Can the timer before flowcode decides that the file is not available be increased slightly for network saved files to allow the drive to spin up ?

I try to click on the drive in my computer to spin up the drive before i start flowcode as a work around - but sometimes i forget

using freenas and western digital red & green drives

Hi Steve,

I'm guessing it's a Windows thing and Flowcode simply requests the file i.e. without a timeout. However I'll check with the Windows programmers and see how the call is currently made.
