Where are DVR recordings stored? - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have both adopted storage and external storage drives on my Nvidia Shield. When I record a program on 'Live Channels' using the DVR, where does that saved file(s) go? To Adopted/Internal storage, or to External storage?
Also, if I do the same thing but in Plex (i.e. record/DVR a program), where does Plex store those DVRed files?
And finally, is there a way I can CHANGE where those files are saved? I've googled a bit but haven't found anything enlightening about where the files are stored nor how to change the path to use a specific storage area...
Thanks!

Need advice on doubletwist and where to store music

I have about 20GB of music in my iTune. Now just realised that my Samsung Galaxy S internal storage is too small for that. Therefore I think it must be stored on external storage card.
I've just downloaded a program called doubletwist. I have a few questions:
1) How do I turn on mass storage mode on SGS so that doubletwist can see it?
2) How do I tell doubletwist that I want the music to go to storage card instead of internal storage?
3) Has anyone of you experience problem when music is on storage card, such as skipping of part of songs?
4) Is it a better idea to scale down my music collection so that it fits into internal memory?
TIA.
Just wondering, can't you just copy the music files into a folder you call, let's say, music on your SD card, and start up the samsung music player? It'll recognize the files and let you play them.
Or is there any special reason for you to use DoubleTwist?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I might be wrong, I want the iTune rating, playlist, and artwork to be synced as well. Will your method work?

Location on SD card for own movies for Oculus?

For the Oculus Gear VR, how can I see my own movies on the SD card? I assume I need to create a folder?
I have the same problem. I downloaded the Samsung VR Gallery app and that allows you to see your videos on the SDCard and play them.
Hi Guys, also had this problem.
What i figured out. Oculus for some reason cant find them on your SD card but can on you phone internal memory.
Just load your movies in the video folder, if you don't have one create it on your phone memory.
Guys,
Works fine for me on SD, so here is the file structure you need.
Create the folders on your SD as below
Oculus\360Videos
Oculus\360Photos
Oculus\Movies\My Videos
Oculus\Movies\My Videos\3D
Oculus\Multiscreen
Oculus\Trailers
Just dump your own videos in folder - Oculus\Movies\My Videos unless they are 3D, then put in folder - Oculus\Movies\My Videos\3D
All my movies are mp4 and work fine, but not sure what other formats are supported.

where is the music stored to get rid of it?

I used google play to sync my itunes library and then download it to my phone.
only, I can't find the MP3 files anywhere. I now want to be using isycnr as a better solution as it syncs directly to the itunes on my machine rather than what's on google play but want to completely clear out the mp3's already on there.
any good way of doing it?
In Google Play Music setting select clear cache.
Otherwise, the files are saved in Android/Data/com.google.android.music either in the device storage or the external sd storage depending on how you set up the app.
The files won't be named anything recognizable either. Just look for a bunch of .mp3 files with gibberish names.

Where did media go?

I have a Shield TV. I attached a 2TB external HDD to this and set it up as internal storage. I then transferred a bunch of movies and pictures to internal storage and set up KODI. Everything was fine up until about a month or so ago. I am not sure when exactly.
I went to view some of the pictures and learned that the folders I had put my pictures, movies and TV shows in are no longer available. I cannot find them in KODI, X-plore, or ES File explorer. I would say they may have been deleted by mistake but it appears that I still have them somewhere based on the amount of storage available. I had used about 1TB. I still have just over 1TB used, which would indicate the files are still there somewhere. My problem is that I cannot seem to find them. I tried plugging the HDD into my windows 7 pc it doesn't recognize it.
Any thoughts on how I can go about finding these files? I do not want to reformat as I know they will be wiped.
I found them. I used the Analyze option on ES File Explore and found them buried in the recycle bin. Along with a number of there needed files and folders.
I am the only person that uses this Shield TV. I did not delete these files and folders. Does anyone have an idea of what may have happened so I can avoid in the future?

Where does Live Channels DVR store recordings?

So I have both adopted storage and external storage drives on my Nvidia Shield. When I record a program on 'Live Channels' using the DVR, where does that saved file(s) go? To Adopted/Internal storage, or to External storage? I looked at both drive but I don't see any recordings anywhere (even though I have a few shows recorded). They have to go to a folder somewhere...
I am researching the same thing. Any luck?
