I think I might have a lead, but it's incredibly odd and makes little sense. Remember how I said at first the card was working but then crashed during the Patrol Read and was not working again? I noticed that the card was reporting the BBU...
I did want the RAID to be os-independant, so likely what I did yes. I have booted different Windows and Linux based environments from DVDs and USB drives and accessed the RAID that way before.
Yes, I actually replaced the battery about a year ago, the old one was swollen. It would still work with a dead or removed battery though, I was operating it like that for years until I bought a replacement.
That's a last resort if I can't get this one working, and is the RAID configuration stored on the drives or would I completely need to re-do it if I replace the card?
I have a LSI 9260-8i, this was actually reflashed from the original IRM ServeRAID M5014 it arrived as. It has since also been upgraded to the latest firmware from LSI/Broadcom, which is 12.15.0-0239 (also the card at boot identifies as BIOS...
I took a quick stab at this and have a proof of concept. Not guaranteeing it's exactly correct/doesn't miss records yet since I'm too lazy to write tests now, but output seems at least somewhat sane at a glance.
I'll post the source and binaries...
Attached a zip - probably not linking to my Github.
Binaries are under ./dist/.
Throw whatever files next to the binary, or if you're running from Python, in the current working directory. Name them like this:
screenshots1.vdf
screenshots2.vdf...
I think I partially misread and may have a flaw in my logic. Of course I randomly thought of it while in bed.
I currently merge files and consider screenshot records unique based on filename. The filename itself is a timestamp and you probably...
\Wow, I was not expecting someone to just write a program to do this. I was considering doing it but I am not a developer and would have had no idea how to start with parsing all the data to put it back in later. I'll round up the screenshot...
I have been using Steam on multiple computers and want to merge all of my screenshots I have been taking on them into my main system. The screenshots themselves are not a problem, you basically just copy over the folder(s) and after a painstaking...
While I don't play Valorant (and after hearing about how intrusive it's anti-cheat is, never will), the fact that it requires this kind of stuff for it's anti-cheat if you're playing on Windows 11 worries me that other games might start enforcing...
