Hi Brennan Support,

I have been using the 'flac+mp3' option and I'm delighted with this new function.  Along with the 'Export mp3s' function, this is superb!

I have noticed an issue with the 'Disk used' figure in 'Settings & Status'.  Before I began the 'flac+mp3' function, the 'Disk used' figure was 219GB.

Now that 6000 flac tracks have been added in the 'mirror' folders, the 'Disk used' is still 219GB.

If I go in at Linux level, and look at the disk space used in the 'music' folders I see:

'#du -sh music'   reports 253GB of disk space used.

It looks like the B2 is not counting the 'mirror' folders space used.  I have 6000 files at approximately 5MB per file = 30GB of total 'mirror' space.

That would account for the difference between the B2 'Disk used' and the Linux 'Disk used' figures.

Regards,
Peter.
