I think is because de OS. What I've notice when I burn a CD is the same
thing. A funny thing is that when you burn a CD on the Mac and the names are
more than 255 characters you can read them on the PC but if you try to write
them the CD Burners doesn't let you do that even though you can map your
hard disk with routes longer than 255 characters.

I don't get it.

Exactly 20. So, if the path name + projector file name > 127 characters (on
Windows at least), Director craps out with a bogus error message.
