Hey there john we are running NS on mac os x 10.8.5 from my finding yes it is a little random but hit about a 90% fail rate.
it not solely quicktime the issue that needs to be addressed is the afp protocol, I am investigating using NFS and mount points but this brings it own issue being that apple has not written it in there os to the own specifications and standards, but for the least amount of issue it is recommended to use Yosemite over mavericks, works great with 10.8.5 but the newer the mac the harder it is to get the box running with 10.8.5. as howard mentioned maybe the way around is for the file to be written local to a temp file the copied to network location on completion, would be awesome if this all just happened under the hood, maybe a feature request for the NS guys. and yes I can defiantly say this is real. regards -adam On 25/11/2014, at 3:25 AM, John Coldrick <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't know if you're running on Windows, but we've always had issues where > we need to use UNC paths instead of mounted drives(or do it locally and then > copy), it's completely random and is related to the quicktime dll.
