So, I was recording a longish video -- maybe ten minutes -- with my photon's video camera. When I'd reached the end, I went to stop the video, and it wouldn't stop, wouldn't go "home," wouldn't do ANYTHING, nor was the "recording time" moving forward. I couldn't deal with it at that moment, so I put the phone in my pocket and went about my business. Maybe a half-hour later, I had time to check on it, took my phone out of my pocket, and it was back to "waiting to take a picture" camera mode. There was a "Low Space" notification in the bar at the top of the screen. Okay, that's expected, that's that long video. Let me go retrieve that.
Well, I hook the phone to my PC, so I can move thew video off the phone, and there's no such file to be found. I unhook from the computer, and use my file manager. There's no such file to be found. I follow the "Running out of space" notification, and the phone tells me the used space is as follows:
Now, I'm not a math major, but that doesn't seem to me like that adds up.
Moreover, when I first go into the "Storage Settings" menu, between "Downloads" and "Available," there's the following:
...which then disappears. Now, I'm willing to step out onto a limb here, and say that "Misc" contains my huge video file which I want to get off the phone, either by moving it or by deleting it...
But where the hell is it?
