Author Topic: GDC 8.01 build 280 glitch Stephan Shelley Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 854 From: castro valley, CA, usa Registered: Nov 2014 posted 07-27-2018 03:19 PM                     Hey guys a heads up. This version of software won't always recognize transferred content.From GDC tech support: Hi Stephan, I was about to reply, this is known issue on b280. It will be fixed on the next release, I don’t have a date on that just yet but its soon. Server should rescan after playback and recognize the content, if that doesn’t happen on its own a reboot is required.

I do not have any B280's loaded anywhere, fortunately... Mark Addendum: I just checked the GDC FTP site and Build 286 is available under the "Pilot" file. You could try that on one server and make sure it's stable, but at least take a snapshot so you can easily revert back to build 280 if need be. I have used Pilot firmware before and have not had any issues with it.  |  IP: Logged Stephan Shelley Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 854 From: castro valley, CA, usa Registered: Nov 2014 posted 08-04-2018 06:06 PM                     I could be wrong here but I think the going back with the disk snapshot only rolls the server back but not the IMB. Depending you could end up with a version mismatch between the server and IMB that could be incompatible.  |  IP: Logged Sergey Morozov Film Handler Posts: 16 From: Moscow, Russia Registered: Mar 2017 posted 08-06-2018 04:56 PM                     *deleted  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-07-2018 08:01 AM                     I'd just install the new build the n that server and be done with it.  |  IP: Logged Stephan Shelley Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 854 From: castro valley, CA, usa Registered: Nov 2014 posted 08-08-2018 12:35 PM                     That is what I did but it is 8 of them.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-08-2018 04:39 PM                     Try installing it in one of them for a few days, if all seems well then do the rest of them.
