Don and all, I am not sure if you have read my message's about these backup/restore problems. I also split my ANI-files into 500 segments. But it is not always the 896-problem. I did a backup/restore directly to my tapeunit of a 4752 framefile. No problem what so ever. But doing a compare gives me the message "files are different" When i go step by step, i notice some strange looking frames, which hardly can be seen when you play the animation. When i remove this/these frames and backup/restore again there are no problems. But when i restore from tape the ANI-files with the "bad frames"in it. The file is corrupted from this "bad-frame" to the end of the file. Another thing i noticed. When i backed up/compared files to tape i got the "files are different" message. Then i split them an joined them again to my slavedrive. When i did a backup/compare of that joined file everything was ok. In short, i cannot get the exakt clue of the problem, but maybe the DPS-people can. And this is of some help for them ?!
