Can you enlighten me as to Dropbox's archiving method? Does it only over write files that have been changed or does it blindly resave everythng.

I could see that bin being over written by the other computer so the archived project would not reflect some changes that differ between the two computer's projects. Even if you don't have the same bins open wouldn't the entire project get overwritten to dropbox or is it's syncing function looking only for modified files?
I realize the dropbox approach is not trying to be a unity but how do you insure that you don't inadvertently over a bin that has been changed on another system?

Oh, that is a good idea! That way it stays local be gets synced between our three machines.Thank,Scott
I don't know about an internal server, but I save all my projects directly to DropBox and that works perfectly.All my projects from multiple machines are uploaded to Dropbox continually and I can access any project from any machine.All I did was point the "folder location" in the Avid Project startup window to Dropbox and started a project. Maybe it works because the folder also exists ON the editing computer and is then synced with the "cloud" but I don't have any problems.SteveOn Jun 5, 2015, at 10:22 AM, 'Carmichael, Scott A' sacarmic@...
