Re: Files seen by some apps and not others

["Bearcat Şándor" <bearcatsandor@gmail.com>]

I don't think it's memory corruption as my modules test out fine, and
the problem began when i ran the btrfs check
--repair. Someone responded that they thought that the missing files
that are playable by the media player were still in memory, but they
still play after a reboot and they're not in a tmp structure anywhere.

So could it be that the metadata is not aligned with the nodes on the
disc? If so, what should i run next to address this? A balance? A
find-root with restore -t?

Would a 'btrfs rescue chunk-recover' help at this point or damage
things further?

Thanks all.
