A friend liked my CD so much they wanted a copy. I said "no problem, I'll just burn a copy for you." Well, I opened up the project in AD6 and got this dialog box "The import of certain clips was unsuccessful because some necessary data is missing." All of my file information is gone - everything - something akin to 2 hours of work gone.
I looked at the project file (ADS). I see that it is XML. I see that it references "Cache" files: ~PD_00021.txt etc. What's weird is, these are in a different place than my WAV files I used to make the CD. Also, they are gone (the ~PD files are gone, the WAV files are still there)! Looking at the XML file, it seems that AD6 creates two cache files per WAV file - one for each channel (left and right).
What I don't understand is, I already edited the WAV files in another piece of software and was only using AD6 here to burn the CD. Other ~PD_ files look huge - like AD6 is duplicating the entire WAV files!!!
First off - I don't understand, why would AudioDirector duplicate the source files? Why are they stored in a different directory than my project? How did the files get deleted? If they are integral to the process why do they have ~ (tilda's) infront of them, which signals to most programmers and clean-up programs they are temporary files!!!
What can I do to recover my project? All of the program information, and the order of the WAV files is gone! Maybe I shouldn't be using AD6 to burn CD's at all?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Robert

Hi, I've been playing around with AD6. In my project, I filled out the album name and the artist, then burned a CD. However, when I play the CD from Windows Media Center, my CD player, or my car (a GM Volt), I see "Unknown album". Has anyone else experienced this? This seems like a pretty bad bug if you can't write out an album name. Ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Robert
