Cancel that. The files play back in preview from Finder, but they will not open in quicktime. Also, some of the bad files open occasionally. And they open on other systems sometimes. Just throwing it out there, don’t expect there to be any fixes. Thanks Apple.

FYI, all 81 files play back fine within Quicktime and the Finder.

I tried a new folder and moved the media files, but not the database files and it didn’t work. It must be a drive problem? Thanks for your responses, John.

I’ve deleted the database files and let Avid rebuild them a few times already. Is this not the same thing as creating a new OMFI Media Files Folder?

thanks

When I uncheck or deselect the “Report Dropped Frames” warning it has moments where it plays back very clunky, but obviously no warning. Obviously, when I have the warning option selected, it gives me a warning message about dropped frames. Whether it’s noticeable or not, I can’t have dropped frames.

Thanks

The RAID is not even close to full.

I’m familiar with mixing down in FCP. I did try and it helped, but still got some dropped frames. I can’t say that it is not a RAID problem, but the high-end tech support basically said if everything is okay in RAID Admin, then it’s not that.

Mixing down the audio every time I want to watch my timeline doesn’t seem to be very efficient. Am I not understanding you?

Thanks
