Hise can't save hr file with hxi metadata.

[It_Used]

I create expansion, create sample map them, sample map have a {EXP::} wildcards i've has been check this and save to monolith.
Problems:

• packaging samples to hr archive has been stucked on 100%. and in the task manager Hise have a nothing disk activity, this is signal that all finished, and Hise is do not change size of temp.dat file anymore. And if I click on the cancel button, Hise freezes and it can only be closed through the task manager.
• other Expansion types are not working, working only: File-Based, Encrypted, if i change exp type to Full, or Custom and has after restart Hise - in the expsnsion edit we have a no items, but in the fact this is contain sampleMaps. Also, even if you ignore this and encode Expansion anyway, the extension will weigh much less than it should (in my case, 2kb out of 30kb) and a window with the error "error parse hxi file" will appear during encoding. Also, if you start converting such an extension to an hr archive, then the archive will be created quickly, but there will only be a broken hxi file, without samples and everything else that should be there. After enctyption i can't select sample map into sampler. this is no sample map in the list... Also watch on console, some parameters is undefined... (If do not select hxi file, we have a same resault).

@It_Used have you tried using a different sample install method? I don't use hr archives. I make my own using Whitebox Packages (OSX) and InnoSetup (Windows). There's lots of info about them both on the forum. Maybe you use them already, how do you plan to distribute your plugins without them?

[It_Used]

@DanH where I will distribute it, installers are not allowed, only raw files. And I have a big project, the samples will weigh about 500GB. That is, it is already difficult to do so in order to give the user the opportunity to install resources so that he does not have to download all 500 GB to install some of them. My task is to make the installation easy for the user by pressing one or two buttons. Therefore, the hr archive is the most versatile option for me. And for the user too).

@It_Used actually the most versatile option is to build the content download and install into the plugin....so you only ever ship the plugin - and once it starts it checks for the content and if its not present it starts a download/install process(where you can offer the user the option on what they do and dont want to install...).

We do this for all our (sample based) plugins these days

@Lindon problem has solved. idk where store 500Gb+ of data. No cloud service is ready to give away so much space, and I don't have the resources to build my own dedicated server, my Internet is so-so.

Bunny is good, Amazon S3 also but more expensive

@d-healey yeah, i think to use torrent. data spread is scaled, by number of interested users (peers).

@It_Used Is this for a commercial library?

Not true, I use pCloud(https://www.pcloud.com/) , £96/year for 2TB with unlimited downloads....

@d-healey no, no, do you remember the stream where I told you about my projects back then based on Kontakt?

[d.healey]

@It_Used Oh you're the piano guy?

[It_Used]

@Lindon I think it's better not to spend money on something that you'll end up giving away. This means that such an infrastructure is likely to be redundant, and I live in Russia, which means I'm sure I'll have problems accessing foreign services.

[It_Used]

@d-healey yeah
