Problem finding saved recordings on linux

[aggo]

I am using v4.1.6 of the GUI and I am trying to find the saved recordings on my KDE neon 5.15 system. However, I cannot see them in the Documents/OpenBCI_GUI folder, nor somewhere in the app folder. However, the GUI says there is a file being saved (see screenshot). Any clues would be highly appreciated!

I can assure you the file will be there once you are done recording.

[aggo]

done recording = stop streaming, no?

[retiutut]

In the screenshot above, the data is still being saved to file. Every time the data stream stops, the file is saved. You can't close a file that's still open. Starting the data stream again will open a new file.

This policy maintains that there are no "breaks" in the file (aka contiguous data).

[aggo]

Yes but there were no files even after closing the GUI altogether..

For starters, you did not use the Issue template. Very hard to help when you don't provide required information.

There are actual issues here, whereas this seems like a wild goose chase.

Sorry for not using the template. I assumed maybe it's something very obvious that I'm doing wrong. Still assuming this, the place where I should find the recordings is /home/<user>/Documents/OpenBCI_GUI/Recordings/, no? Also, once closing the GUI the recordings should be there, right? Also, is the OpenBCI_GUI/Recordings directory structure automatically created? In my case I tried even creating the structure by myself but to no avail.
This is my console output:

I'm seeing the GUI making the file!

/root/Documents/OpenBCI_GUI/Recordings/OpenBCISession_2019-11-08_20-36-05/OpenBCI-RAW-2019-11-08_20-36-20.txt

It's right there!

[aggo]

But there are no files in the end, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?
