1173895 2011-01-31 20:07:00 Would you believe it - first thing this morning the drive with nothing on it except SVI-folder and the tracking.log file worked OK.

Yet last night it started its 2-sec "clicks" immediately after I added the tracking.log file - I did nothing else

(I can hear the professionals saying OF COURSE a .log file would have no effect. The media player would just ignore it. I thought so too but the evidence of the clicking was too strong...)

I'm beginning to wonder if pctech in another thread is right in saying the media player might be a piece of s***t. (has a basic instability)

(I'm also wondering how PC professionals can make a living if problems take this much effort to sort out. And when does one quit? Is it nobler in the mind to simply accept defeat??)

LOL. had that sort of annoying hard to track down type problem on occasion.

Drives you nuts until you solve it then it's very satisfying. I hate not finding out......

You can't do that. Well you could but you wouldn't get much repeat business.

Yes it is like an itch, can't be left alone until it is gone.

Very true! I'm glad I don't have to support a house and family doing this!
