View Full Version : DGIndex and network drives

Hello,

If I use DGIndex (I generally use 1.4.8, but the same occurs with 1.4.9) and drag a large (gigabytes) M2V from a network drive onto it (either mapped to a drive letter or a UNC share), it displays the File list, which I OK, then starts to use 10-15% CPU but otherwise does nothing. I can close the program with no problem, but if I first drag the file a second time, and then try to close the program, it stops responding.

Smaller files (~100Mb) load up fine, and almost immediately display the first frame. It's a bit of a pain copying such a large file from a network drive to my C: drive to create the .d2v, so is there anything I can do to make this work?

Thanks,
David

I'm not sure how to help because I just opened a 5GB transport stream off a network drive with no problem.

Anyone else having this problem?

I can say I'm not having this problem. I regular capture .ts files on another machine (normal filesize ~6gb) and they drag-and-drop fine. The only time it pauses slightly is when the source drive needs to be spun up because it's been idle for too long.

This is with 1gbps lan, I could imagine it being a different story over wireless.
(Using 1.4.8, BTW.)
