It describes SMB-based copying with Windows and Robocopy, file-transfer errors, Windows error 665, and troubleshooting that isolates a filesystem limitation on the UNAS. ### Source excerpt I've had a Synology NAS for a very long time, and recently I started moving its contents to a new Ubiquiti UniFi UNAS Pro 8. This seemed like it ought to be a fairly boring operation. Both devices speak SMB, I have a fast network (recently upgraded to 10 gigabit internally), and Windows has had tools for copying files reliably between machines for decades. Naturally, it turned into a whole evening of learning things I thought I already knew, which is why I started a blog lol. There was a nice bit of history here for me because back in 2007 (good lord!) I wrote a post called "XCopy considered harmful - Robocopy or XXCopy or SyncBack." My argument at the time was basically that once you are moving enough files, Explorer stops being the move and Robocopy starts looking pretty good. I even used /Z, Robocopy's restartable mode, because being able to resume a partially transferred file was useful on unreliable connections. Almost twenty years later, /Z turned out to be one of the most important things I needed to remove because it made everything hella slow. The migration The basic job was straightforward. I had shares on the Synology such as: \\server\music and matching shares on the UNAS: \\UNAS-Pro-8\music I initially used Explorer, mostly because it was there and because sometimes the easy thing really is the easy thing. That lasted until Explorer started producing errors on individual files: The requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation My first thought was filenames. NAS migrations are full of opportunities to discover that one filesystem is more permissive than another, and there were filenames with parentheses and other punctuation in them. Then this failed: \\server\music\Athlete\Tourist\05 Wires.m4p There is nothing especially exotic about 05 Wires.m4p, so I moved over to Robocopy to get a little more information. It consistently got to 92% and returned Windows error 665: 92% New File 4.3 m 05 Wires.m4p ERROR 665 (0x00000299) Cop ## Downmixing Multichannel Audio on Android DevFeed: [Downmixing Multichannel Audio on Android]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Ian Bird Published: 2021-11-15T18:53:33Z Content type: tutorial Language: en Sources: [Ian Bird]() Topics: [Android]() Tags: [android](), [audio](), [decoding](), [encoding](), [guide](), [how-to](), [mediacodec](), [multichannel]() ### AI overview A practical guide to downmixing multichannel audio on Android. It explains why downmixing may be needed for compatibility, how Android represents decoded audio as PCM buffers, and the role of channel order and PCM encoding. ### Source excerpt Sometimes we need to dig a little deeper into how things work. This is a quick and simple guide covering raw audio buffers on Android, and how to downmix multichannel formats.
