Hi All,
I received the note below from Jason in my PM so I have reposted that here. There are a couple of embedded images which have not come across in the copy.

Thanks, Peter!
Okay... software updated and disc scan done.
Test-played a few tracks via the webUI that is now working again.
It looks like everything is back! Well, almost everything - in the before times I had listed 35592 tracks and 2704 albums, as well as 652.98Gb... now listed are 35578 tracks and 2709 albums with 763.80Gb. (See screen caps.)
Hmmmm. A small enough discrepancy such that I am not going to worry about it as I'd thought I"d lost almost everything! Two years of uploading music during a pandemic!
Should I hold down the PLAY/STOP button to save, as one does?
A side note that may or may not apply - so far the Sandisk Extreme card is working great on my new phone, after taking awhile to 'load'. There are about 30 albums that were thrown into an UNKNOWN ARTISTS folder after having the artists and track names removed somehow. I'm pretty thorough with doing the save function when uploading/updating info on the B2, but either it was just the buggy back-up, or I did indeed forget to press PLAY/STOP to save. The album cover art is with them so I am able to identify what's what. Hmmm. Again, I'll just go into the card via my laptop and update those folders.
Everything appears OKAY, but I will await any possible next steps from you before I put this baby in use again . . .
Best,
Jason Kinney

Hi Jason,
The situation here is looking a lot better now. The discrepancy in the number of tracks looks to be 14 'WAV' tracks, and that means that these are probably the last one or two albums that you ripped.
Yes, you should press and hold the 'Play/Stop' button until you see 'Saving' . That will ensure that that the B2's internal database is saved to the HDD.
Now that you have updated the software you should be able to run the 'Export' through to completion without further problems.
So the 'Export' is the next step to complete. Also, the fact that you have posted screenshots of the 'Settings & Status' window that indicates that you have been able to connect to the B2 via the WebUI, so that is another problem that is resolved.
Also, for now, don't worry about the differences between the data volume reports; there are a couple of reasons for this which we can look at later.
Regards,
Peter.
