Hummm let me see the crystal ball ... no OPL 0.9 won't be released until months :p
(I have no real idea on this, it's a guess according to the state of the current revision, to the amount - or lack :p - of new enhancement, and the average release timeline)
USB prefix path: yes it is approx. what you understood. You can change the path for the USB device, instead of using the usual "root" of the device. You can put everything into a subfolder now. This was really needed, not for a convenient usage, but for people that want to use their external HDD either in SMB mode (connected to a PC/NAS), or in USB (connected to the PS2), as usually you can't use the "drive" letter as a share, it must be a folder.
USB check fragmentation: that is to test if the fileparts/ISO are fragmented. that was an old feature of Polo (in 0.8) but due to some copy/paste mistake I made, the code wasn't working. So it has been removed just before the 0.8 release. And now it is back and working well :)
HDD automatic spin down: As you can see, there is no "USB" mention there. It is for the internal HDD mode only. It is either to define a timeout that will shutdown the HDD when idle, or to completely remove the HDD automatic spin down (use value 0), when idle and when using the IGR too (<- that's for you TnA !).
...and what leads you to this assumption?Quote:

You see the difference between all official release-versions?
Now,... Where is the big difference between OPL 0.8 and the newer revisions?
Granted, there are a few nice additional new features, but where are the 'big-bang-additions' like the new GUI with Cover/Icon/Background-Art&very flexible skinning-support and VMC or re-worked IGR and re-worked network-stuff.
That's just an example for the differnce between 0.7 and 0.8, which is a big difference...
Exactly, you don't need your USBA-Part-Files in the root of your USB-Device anymore.Quote:

This actually checks, if the Game-Files (and possibly also VMC-Files, but I didn't look at it yet,so I'm not sure) on USB are fragmented.Quote:

No,... For internal HDD.Quote:
2.hdd spin

You can define the time (in minutes), after which the HDD should 'spin down' if no data is read from it.Quote:
Whats its importance?
With value 0 you de-activate the spin-down.
This means that your drive will be instantly on, even if it isn't accessed for hours (but some games can/might need that...) and also it de-activates the HDD-Shutdown-Feature, if you 'IGR out-of-a-game' to Browser/OSDSYS (normally the HDD is ever turned off [de-initialize DEV9], before starting the OSDSYS).
No.Quote:

Edit: izdubar was quite a lot faster...
Arghh! Multi-Tabbing. :D
IS THEre is no harmful effect of IGR or if i shutdown the USB hdd Directly becoz it is spining the hdd when power given to hdd
Short answer: NoQuote:

You could possibly cause corruption to your gamesave if you decided to use IGR while a game was in the saving process if your usng VMC, but then its no different than if you turned off the console or pulled out the MC. That is why you see that same message on EVERY game when its saving to the MC, you know the one i mean.
But what happen to that hd physical state cause when i turn of the hdd then the hdd is spining @7200rpm then there must be a harm effect on hdd idk what hapen in pc ??
....... it simply stops spinning.:rolleyes:
...and even moves the read/write-heads into 0-Possition to make sure, that there won't happen any physical damages to your hard-drive.Quote:
