Avid|DS RP displays this error message when started: Project ...
already exists on the system.
Avid|DS RP is unable to use the default Basic Project folder because of
network modification done to the system or the Avid|DS workstation. The
local DS Projects folder of the RP system should be cleaned of unused
projects. If the computer name was modified, all local hal_stores files must be
deleted (Opening a project recreates a deleted hal_stores file automatically).
When starting Avid|DS RP, the hourglass icon appears for a brief
moment, then nothing.
Although extremely rare, this can occurs after a software crash where a process
in still running in the background and preventing a new process from being
opened since you can run only one instance of Avid|DS at a time on any system.
To resolve this problem
1. Open Task Manager.
2. Select the Processes tab.
3. Locate any occurrence of a running ds.exe process. If any, click End
Process and confirm its termination.
Avid|DS RP should now start properly.
Why does remote processing need to copy audio media files to
the Avid|DS RP station?
It does not. This means that the Avid|DS workstation Audio Storage is not
shared and remote processing must copy the media over the network
connection to its local folder to process the files. This is improper and must be
corrected on the client workstation.
I have two Avid|DS RP licences and try to process to two remote
processing stations, but the second station refuses to process.
Avid|DS RP licensing is processor based, not workstation-based. If the
Avid|DS RP stations are dual processor, then both RP licenses are taken by the
first RP station to be started and none are available for the second RP station.
