  • MC5 problems with symbols before project name?

    Posted by Kristen Spaur on May 13, 2011 at 9:55 am

    Hi Everyone-

    My editor is opening a project that I created on my laptop using MC5 into his version of MC5 at a different location. But it is giving him ./symbols in front of project name and won’t allow him to delete them? Have you heard of this and is there a solution to fixing it? Found it strange and just want to make sure it isn’t going to cause him problems down the line. I know that he took my project and put it into the Shared Avid Projects folder and then of course brought over my Avid Media Mxf file folder to his unity. Can someone help with this?! Thank you in advance!

    Is the second avid a mac? we’ve run into that with sharing projects between pc avids and mac avids. we would just not use any special charaters besides an _

    the simplest solution is have him create a new project and copy your bins into the new project.
