I am new to rclone but I have mange to set up rclone on my Win10 machine and sync to Google drive with crypt. I also set up rclone browser by kaptainsky. I am using rclone v.1.51.0 and my rclone.conf look like this:
When I mount both remotes using Rclone browser, everything mounts like it should as Y: and X: on file explorer and I can see all the files correctly. The issues I am having is when I try to copy a file from gdrive to gdrive-crypt, everything looks find but after the files has been transfer it does not show on gdrive-crypt or anywhere for that matter. The reason I would like to transfer this way is because is much faster compare to using a command line since I only have 40Mbps of upload speed and it takes forever specially when transferring a 50G file to stream from GD to kodi. The command line I used is this:
I will add "--log-file rclone.log" and will check for errors and will report back. I don't use a command line to mound X: and Y: . I mount them thru rclone browser.
I ran the command:
rclone ls gdrive-crypt
2020/04/05 08:06:21 ERROR : : error listing: directory not found
2020/04/05 08:06:21 Failed to ls with 2 errors: last error was: directory not found
Ok I see. But I have not notice anywhere in my local computer where it was downloaded before been uploaded again. Was I supposed to set up a special folder for that in Rclone browser?
instead, rclone downloads a chunk at a time, encrypts it and then upload that chunk.
a chunk at a time, over and over in a loop. until the entire file is processed.
no hard drive space is used
I see got it. My other question is, I have copy file1 from gdrive: to gdrivecrypt: using windows explorer. But every time I have done that after the transfer is done, file1 never show is gdrive-crypt: or anywhere. But if i run the command line:
i do not use
--- gdrive, except for testing.
--- mounts, as they are very slow and very unreliable on windows.
--- rclonebrowser. i use rclone from command line for backup, not to stream videos.
if you want to understand what is going on, you must use a log file.
https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_mount/#directory-cache
Using the --dir-cache-time flag, you can set how long a directory should be considered up to date and not refreshed from the backend. Changes made locally in the mount may appear immediately or invalidate the cache. However, changes done on the remote will only be picked up once the cache expires.
I will try using the --dir-cache-time flag. On the other hand, I have no problem streaming from Kodi using a webdav on either remote gdrive: or gdrive-crypt. Like you mention it works instantly which surprise me how fast it is. The problem is when I am trying to copy files, from gdrive: to gdrive-crypt, they dont show up using Rclone Browser. But if I move them, they show up but encrypted, again using Rclone Browser. I just though it would be easier to use since I am new to rclone and have a hard time with command lines.
