  • Script Sync – Find Feature not workng

    Posted by David Vazquez on November 1, 2013 at 1:03 am

    We have 3 bays in our facility with script sync for Avid 6.0. One of our script syncs is unable to search for a word and list every time it’s used. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Thanks!

    Looks like the project is only half indexed according to the green dot display – are the other projects doing the same thing or not?

    The same project is fine on our other bays. On the faulty bay, when I try to find text using “Scripts in Project,”I get an error saying “Search Error: ScriptText query could not be executed.”

    How do I full index?

    Look at the last tab in the FIND window to see if indexing has been paused or not. That is usually associated with PhraseFind indexing, but you never know. There is no other button that says INDEX or not – it just sort of does. It’s just that I noticed that your indexing indicator was only at half. You might try the usual steps’ create new user settings, trash MC state, or even uninstall/reinstall on that system. Also have to ask, but the scripts are all .txt to start and are now .avs?

    Changing the settings of the user fixed this issue. Thank you!
    They were imported as TXTs with line breaks, and are saved as AVS in Avid.
