And SleepyHead is finding those files just fine.

Maybe a momentary glitch in the Mac's reading of the data OSCAR, that was resolved by the time you tried SleepyHead?
You could try re-reading the SD for OSCAR before you try creating a new profile.

I don't have a Mac or Sleepyhead, but looking at the files in Explorer there is no Events folder on the SD card so it appears that Oscar creates it. Also explains why Sleepyhead doesn't have that issue-- see if there's an Events folder in Sleepyhead. The .001 files can be read with Notepad++ but there's like 2500 lines of code so you'll need a file comparison program to find the error.

By "re-reading" do you mean delete that day then re-import it? I don't think just shoving the card in will work as I believe Oscar only appends, not rewrites the whole thing. Guess we'll find out.

I'd still go for the new profile and see if Oscar will create a valid .001 file for that day. Compare the .001 files that are the same size to try to find the culprit.

OTOH, LIS and YOLO, so alternatively, go fishing. Gonna be a spectacular day today. Looks like the Calendar "Fell Back" a month.

Carpe diem! And enjoy it.
As for the OSCAR day: yes, deleting that problematic one lock stock and barrel (it's on the Data options for PC's) and reimporting is an interesting step prior to trying a new profile.
I had success with that in past.

So: it's seize the day for Rubicon, and delete the day for Robysue.
Isn't human language marvelous?

Oscar doesn't put *anything* on the SD card, unless someone told Oscar to use the SD card as it's data storage location, (NOT Advisable).
All that should be in the root of the SD card is
"DATALOG Identification.crc Identification.tgt Journal.dat SETTINGS STR.edf"

There's an option in Oscar under the Data/Advanced menu to purge a current day's data in order to be able to re-import that data from the SD card.

Right. Oscar puts it in the PC folder, in this case:

Need RSx to confirm if that's how it's done in Mac.

It's the same on linux, I imagine it's the same on Mac.

So we done here? Mystery solved?

If you look in folder OSCAR_data > logs you may be able to discern which file has been corrupted (IMO an Event file has been corrupted).

For example, after deleting Event ***.001 files error codes such as

3460299: Warning: No Event/Waveform data available for 1647427860 filename "C:/Users/Rubicon/Documents/OSCAR_Data/Profiles/Rubicon/ResMed_22191170060/Events/6231c114.001" error code 5 "The system cannot find the file specified."
3460299: Warning: Error Loading Events "C:/Users/Rubicon/Documents/OSCAR_Data/Profiles/Rubicon/ResMed_22191170060/Events/6231c114.001"

appeared, but perhaps this is more than anybody needs/wants to know.

So I thought I'd post an update.

I have not yet made a new Profile in Oscar, but I did figure out how to make the Mask Pressure graphs show up.

In poking around the Preferences, I found a pull down menu under "General" that said:

Graphics Engine (Requires Restart)
Try changing this from the default setting (Desktop OpenGL) if you experience rendering problems with OSCAR's graphs.

The menu included an option called "Software Engine". I selected "Software Engine", ok'd the change, quit OSCAR and restarted it. And lo and behold, there were the Mask Pressure graphs, including the ones from 2010 when I was using the Resmed S9 AutoSet.

Oddly, when I quit Oscar again, the Graphics Engine somehow switched back to the default, but it now does show the Mask Pressure graphs when I upload the contents of the SD card.

I'm still having problems with Oscar running the machine sessions together into one super-session in the right left sidebar:


But if I go to SleepyHead, the sessions show up as individual sessions:

Here's a screenshot showing the full path down to where Oscar is writing its files for my AirCurve on my MacBook Pro:

Documents is part of my home folder (robin)


Here's a screenshot showing the time stamps on those folders in the AirCurve's folder:

I imported last night's data at 8:00 this morning, and that's why you see these time stamps.


And finally here's a screenshot of the contents of the SD card itself, which is still mounted on my Mac because I haven't wandered upstairs to get dressed yet:


If y'all want pictures of any of those subdirectories, just ask.

But I'm pretty sure OSCAR is not writing anything to my AirCurve's SD card.

Great find!

Definitely, sorry if my wording gave that impression.
