Re: [Avid-L2] Avid doesn't see RAID

 

Go to Console

type alldrives <enter>

Most likely your Avid doesn't think your RAID is a media drive. The command <alldrives> allows everything to show up in Media Creation, regardless of what Avid thinks.

For some reason, my Media Composer is not seeing the RAID on my MacPro. In any list - like transcode - it pulls up every drive EXCEPT the RAID. I went to settings and deselected all of the "filtering" options, and even in the Media Creation setting, the RAID is not choosable from the list of drives to write to. There are 4.5T of space left on the RAID.

Avid CAN see the RAID when doing Exports and Imports or AMA linking! Just not transcoding or when saving Titles or rendering, basically anything that's supposed to go in the Avid Mediafiles folder is broken.

I'm running 7.0.3 on OS 10.8.5.

The RAID has read/write privileges for me and for EVERYBODY.

There is not an Avid Mediafiles folder on the RAID, but Avid should create one on launch, right, or at least when you try to record media to the drive?

This problem occurred a while ago. Something happened to the RAID and the icon changed and I lost some data and eventually replaced a bad drive in the unit. Since then, I haven't been able to use the drive as a media drive for Avid.

All other programs can see the RAID and export to it fine. It has to have something to do with the Avid Mediafiles folder itself. I wonder if somehow it became an invisible file? And Avid senses that it's out there, but can't use it.
