Sorry not to reply sooner, but that work thing was sucking way my time (lol).
Tom, that's exactly what I'm looking for & I totally agree about the local vs. offloading it. But, unfortunately, the project I'm working on needs local files as an option. (btw, I just installed TimeMediaHandler for the first time recently & found the thumbnail problem was a memory problem). Thanks for any help you can, or anyone else, can give.
