" Running MC 6.0.1 on Lion 10.7.2 with Unity. Noticing that whenever our media folders exceed past 2000 files avid will lock up and crash. Upon restarting the system avid will then scan the database files and then hang near the end of the scan, then crash again. We've found that if you create new media folders, split the files up and keep them below 2000 mxf files avid will relaunch, scan and allow you to work again. However, we've found that avid is only writing files to the 1.1 folder. It will see media in 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 but it will only write to folder 1.1.
Anyone else seeing anything similar? Is this a known bug?
Thanks! "
