You should download events to the local drives before playing. You
can only play directly from the central disk array if no other channel
is accessing the disk array. For example, if the record channel began
uploading while you were playing from the central disk array, the
system would experience video underruns. Events that are not local
display a ÒMedia is Not LocalÓ warning in the playlist. For informa-
tion on warnings, see the Avid AirPlay UserÕs Guide.
