Hi Kevin I presume this is just one machine or is it a networked installation. What linux version are you using? (I've put some comments further down in the email)

I've struct this when the database library (rdlibrary) has the filenames listed... but the audio is missing from /var/snd or where ever you are storing it. What audio type have you defined in rdadmin for that machine pcm wave or mp2? Sometimes it gets confused if you have it as one type and the database thinks its the other. > > 2.

I think in some cases.. there is limits on how long usb cables can be... more than 3 or 4 metres... it either gets slow or doesn't work at all.
