Cart 001: -rw-r--r-- 1 cj cj 35361116 Mar 7 20:05 /var/snd/113000_001.wav Cart 002: -rw-rw-r-- 1 cj rivendell 34862900 Mar 2 2015 /var/snd/113000_002.wav Cart 001 is the original file modified in Audacity, then exported as a WAV file back to /var/snd. Cart 002 is the copy and paste of Cart 001 BEFORE the Audacity meddling. "cj" is the user Rivendell runs under. What's strange is that Cart 002 is the one RD refuses to recognize as containing audio. It's now apparent that the Audacity export touches one of the groups in Cart 001, however that is not the cart that has the problem. I am on vacation for 2 weeks starting already and will be away from Internet during a large part of it, but would like to get back to this when I return. Regardless of those permissions, I think Cowboy is right that something has changed. I found out today that I can no longer print to my printer from any application, and that is a new problem, too. I fear the underlying Linux Mint OS is broken. Mint is not a reliable OS IMO. Their repository for Evolution is a version from 2011, to give an idea of where it stands overall. Their version of Firefox is also way behind the developers' stable release. Guess I need to advance the intended July upgrade from the Debian version to the appliance as soon as I get back. And although it has been wonderful to have Rivendell on my personal notebook, as I can just plug in headphones and do the production and library work on it anywhere, it is probably a better idea to separate the 2 now. Thanks for the help! Back in 2 weeks. --Chuck W. _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
