You raise a fair point about power consumption.

But apart from when I introduced an administrator password, the G5 worked flawlessly where the Mac Pro hasn’t.

Since my last post, we have installed a dedicated server for CatDV.

The next thing I did was disconnect the G5 from the server completely in the hope that there would not be an interference while I test the process on the Mac Pro.

I changed the Worker node task to just simply finding the file in the watch folder and moving it to another folder. I used one 300MB .mov file, one 10KB .jpg file and one 4KB .txt file.

The CatDV Worker Node had been installed on the Mac Pro to perform this task locally. All of the files and folders were set up on the Mac Pro desktop to make the process as simple as possible.

The software did not move any of the files whether I loaded them into the watch folder as a group or collectively.

I received the same error message as my original post each time.

If I haven’t mentioned before I am using version 6.8 of the server and version 5.0.2 of the Worker Node.

Hi Bryson,

How do you normally attach the clip ID to the filename?

I have found that the clip ID stays in the xml data and I cant seem to find a way to include it into the filename by using the server or the worker node.

Yes I believe it is.
It would be a great feature for referencing individual files with clients etc.
