Re: [Avid-L2] OFFLINE

The media is spread across a couple drives, so confusion is very possible.

The project once lived on a 1TB drive.

Producer provided a large 3TB drive, to which that 1TB

was backed up.

As I had pretty much run out of space on the original drive,

I set Media Creation to another drive.

After the media went missing this weekend,

I ran Disk Utility and sure enough the new media drive

had some issues, which I then repaired.

May be reaching out to support

on this one!

As far as I remember the _bg.1 is not troublesome.
I think you may have a corrupted bin or a confused media folder.

Will do.

I did notice in MXF folders, the usual numbers.

However, a folder labeled __bg.1

Is this indicative of background processing, or something

that shouldn't be there?

Suggestions.

Move the sequences to a new bin and restart Media Composer.

You can also try RepairSequences in the console.

If none of this work. Hide the Avid MediaFiles folder by adding a letter to its name and create a title, saving it to the drive in question. It should create a new Avid MediaFiles folder with a #1 folder inside.. Then drag all the media to that new #1 folder. Then let the .mdb and .pmr files get recreated.

Good luck.
