I've had something similar with Nanoflash files on version 5 Symphony (PC). All my Nanoflash rushes were copied onto hard disk with folder names such as card 1, card 2 etc. Link to volume didn't work with the card file structure that came to me. If I remember correctly, the cards had some strange folder names (with curly brackets) so I was forced to link to AMA files. On doing this I got some very strange results, with some files linking to clips that were from different folders/different days. The clip names matched the files on disk, but the media was clearly from a completely different file number.
Never got to the bottom of the problem, but it's clearly remained in current versions of software and seems to also be cross-platform.
Luckily, it happened fairly infrequently, so I just did a traditional import on the offending clips. Wouldn't fancy my chances of re-linking to these clips in the future though!
