Re: [Avid-L2] Woeful AMA links situation

Thanks Michael,

My circumstances match what you describe. Strange but misery loves company:)

I should add this from the Console I just happened upon… (repeated ad nauseum)

"AMA: Unlinked RR207001 due to missing file on disk"

no files were deleted or moved, directory corruption? I dread thinking about it.

The AMA linkage now seems so tenuous
