David Nahmani Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Can you try to save the file under a different name without underscore or spaces, as a test? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ALWAYS saves to Desktop. Then I move it back to PROJECT drive and it works for awhile anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats with all the ads here. Gosh- shows how long its been since I've been around. Hey, fisherking, I am going to do that for now. I did another test today and REMOVED the PROJECTS drive from #2 BlackMagic Dock and replaced PROJECT drive with EXS24 drive in that slot and guess what, EXS24 Drive mysteriously ejected itself. So..... It (might be) a problem with #2 BlackMagic Dock or, at least that SLOT. (There are 4 slots in each BM rack mount.) It may also be possible that the entire BlackMagic Dock is bad. Or.... too much s#!+ is being pushed thru my 2013 MacPro TB port. (I have the BM's all daisy chained) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if the ads are bothering you. I'm still tweaking things since the forum software upgrade last month. Care to say which ad unit exactly was too much for you? Or is it just a general feeling? Personally the sidebar ad and the bottom footer ad don't bother me, but there may be a little too many ads in between posts in a topic, so I will reach out to my publisher to ask them to lower the count a bit. I welcome all feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
