I've noticed recently in both Symphony 6.5.2 & 6.5.3 that when I try to link to files using AMA that I get a pop-up window that says "Processing essence - Spinning ball may appear during processing." After waiting several minutes, "Writing Index" appears. Finally, the icon for the AMA linked file in the bin appears different than the normal icon. Instead, I get an icon that looks like an audio waveform with a chain link next to it. The file will not even play in the source monitor. The only way I know to get around the problem is to use the Avid's import command so that a new MXF file can be created.
Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions as to what is causing it and how to fix?
Thanks
