    I have started getting this message this morning.
    The Avid Forum is full of posts regarding this, but no clear fix
    seems common.

    Ideas?

    Might be corrupt database files. Have you tossed them and let Avid re-index?

    Also, check to make sure you don’t have any illegal characters in the filenames of your source material: hyphens, spaces, dashes, parenthesis, colons, etc…

    I’ve also heard this may come up if your media drive is full, but I’m sure you already checked that.

    What exactly were you doing when this cropped up?
