Specifically when you're trying to update the tags on a local asf video file via UNC paths. Let me explain.

All my files are in my database with full UNC paths so I can open the database from any machine. All the files live on my server, Bride, so the paths are something like

//Bride/BRIDE_C/server_files/something.asf

If I import a 70Mb video asf file, edit the tags on Bride then press save, MJ hangs for up to a couple of minutes then throws up multiple errors like
Delayed Write Failed
I can edit the tags fine from my laptop over the network, so the hard disk is fine. Likewise I can edit the tags of a file on my laptop from my server, but not from the laptop.

Any ideas?

This system info is for my laptop as the server is busy showing exactly this behaviour. It's running MJ 8.0.245, Win2k sp2

not that this will fix your problem but you might want to think about "UPGRADING" to a new version

My laptop is usually pretty busy so I don't want to have to reboot it just to upgrade to the latest version. I had to kill MJ on my server as it just wasn't coming out of its error cycle, with the result that that asf got corrupted and freezes half way through now. So here's the sysinfo from the server:

Since I installed Windows 2000 Service Pack 3, this problem has gone away. I guess it was W2k not MJ.

Just my 2 cents - I was having this same problem with files set to UNC paths.  Usually the information would be saved in spite of the error but you would have to wait for the timeout, which if you were changing multiple files could become almost impossible long.

But, thanks to the post, I too tried the W2K Service Pack 3 upgrade and it (so far) seems to have fixed the problem...



Error discussed: Delayed Write Failed

Imagine that.
