The PvdImport plugin doesn't seem to find any files when MC is run as a client.

Is there a way around this? I intend to use a client on a laptop for tagging...

I'm not sure the answer.

A client won't be able to "find" files on the file system when you're a client since they're not local files.

With the SDK, you can check the field 'Library Server URL' or 'Library Server Key' to see if a file comes from a server.

Some details: I'm first doing an expression search which returns a collection of files. Then I perform a MJFileAutomation.Get("Filename",...) . I expected this to return the "local" filename but it returns an url of some sort "m01p://.." which I assume is the MCWS lookup.

In the ActionWindow\tag section, the filename I'm after is correct. There surely must be a way to obtain the "true" filename through the SDK?

MJFileAutomation.GetFilename(...) will return a URL that points to the server.

MJFileAutomation.Get("Filename", FALSE) should return the local filename, not a URL.
