Re: [Avid-L2] AMA link to Avid Compressed .mov shows offline?

Check the path for prohibited characters. That's the most common reason for
a successful link but unsuccessful media online. I've had other weirdness
with AMA linking online and then a split second later going offline - then
I either restart or trash state files and it's working again.
