I dont guess I realized MC was offered with mojo.
You don’t happen to be sportin Medea drives do ya?
I had the same thing happen on a meridien based symphony. Once I got Avid drives, it still happend from time to time but I could always get the media back. Never could with Medea drives. It was just gone and I had to work a few 36 hour shifts off the clock to make it right.

no this is drive independent, if I remove the drives, have no drives, lock out all MediaFile folders same situation. It’s the msm in the Media composer application , supporting files , mediafiles folder that it is having trouble validating the media directory .

OK, if you remove all your media drives and you are still getting the error, Avid is having difficulty scanning the media folder located in the installation folder. This folder contains the ‘Media Offline’, filler, ‘wrong format’ video.

Uninstall it. Reboot. Reinstall. Reboot. REPAIR PERMISSIONS. Reboot. Now try it.
For some reason, Avid is being blocked from writing the PMR/MDB files in this folder. Repairing the permission usually fixes it.

[Phil Ralet]

Yep, hu hun, all this was done at least twice, including, repair disk, repair permissions, using uninstaller, deleting by hand

If there was some kind od hick up while rebuilding the database files, I could see it doing this.
Have you tried deleting them again on all drives and letting it rebuild them again.
We’re just helpin ya reach, here, man. We fee4l your pain. Hang in there. I hope it works out.

[Phil Ralet]

yes also tried that, with all media drives up, with none up, with old project, with new project,………
however you won’t believe the work around. I also have an Avid Xpress Pro on my Powerbook, so I went into applications, Avid Xpress Pro, supporting files, mediafiles, and copied that whole folder to my G5 with Media Composer software, repalced it and …….. bingo. It would appear that it doesn’t want to rewrite those specific msm as they tell the system what the available res’s are. but then should they not have been replaced when reinstalled. Panic makes strange bedfellows

oh yeah, I remember that now.
You can also rename your OMFI folder, digitize a clip, let it recreate a new folder from scratch, then copy your media back into that new OMFI folder.

My system specs are 2.4 core 2 duo, 1tb partitioned 2×465 media drives, 4gb ram running avid express pro 5.6.4

I’m going through the same problem at the mo – I was just about to do my final export and bam – omfi HPDomain_ERROR_CLOSING_DOMAIN an error occured validating the media directory. So I trashed my 2 database files, searched for + named corrupted files then tried some divide and conquer – ending up with the program opening without any error message even tho there were no corrupt files found. But alas I now can’t get my media back online as I’ve got permissions issues with the omfi media files folder and SOME of its contents. How do I repair permissions and re link my offline media.

Is this what hell is like.

Please help
