Tom, I say ol chap, how was your trip over ome? (You did actually take off, EH?) Before you allegedly left, you said: >> I would also suggest that the fragmentation of your Flyer drive is probably the reason you are seeing the problems playing projects longer than 7-8 minutes that you reported in an earlier message (#110532). At least that was my experience with a 15 minute project which I had trouble playing before using reorg and which played fine after using reorg.<< Actually I don't think reorg is the issue. I effectively did a reorg by copying all the clips from each drive to a third 9 gig loaner, reformatted under 4.03 and recopied all the clips back to the original drives. The more likely problem is that the drives are too full. I plan to delete any unused clips and destructively trim the long ones, then reorg to free up some space. Regards Mark
