Hey Michael, thanks for the response.

The files play fine on XP and on other OS X machines in our office – Tiger and Leopard. We’ll test some other codecs, but it’s weird that this one machine is having problems. I’ll get back to you.

Hi Bob,

I thought you might be the first to respond, with your adventures with MetaLAN and whatnot. Thanks for the heads up on Avid – it is insistent on managing it’s own media databases (both annoying and useful). The guys over at Apace assure me that Avid plays well with the vStore, so I’m hoping that shouldn’t be an issue.

I have no illusion of getting Avid to make nice with a NAS. I envision that as being a place for original graphics, music, animations, scripts, etc. to live so that we don’t have multiple copies sprayed across five computers.

Thanks again for the response. I’m not really expecting to get a complete answer on this – but I figured if I just brain-dumped I might get some of it answered. Then I can go back and post some bite sized questions.
