Copying Media Files - Unity

Sorry for the long hiatus everyone. Work, work, work, work...you know the drill.

Just getting through dailies on a show and was told about an interesting bug when copying over media files into your Unity. Basically, if you copy your media to one of your Unity partitions, make sure you keep the user folder that Unity has with in the OMFI MediaFiles folder closed when you copy them over. If you open the Unity User folder (ex. ZJustin), and do the copying, you run the risk of a file of the media files becoming corrupted...making you have to do the process all over again.

So do yourself a favor and keep the user folder closed as shown below. Makes the dailies process a little less annoying.
