\"\"Avid bin sharing enables\u00a0bin locks<\/strong>,\u00a0which bind read\/write access to one user at a time. The system is robust but can malfunction, so this article will cover the two most common problems your team may encounter. If you need help enabling bin locking in a project you are opening for the first time, check out Avid Project Sharing Basics here.<\/p>\n

Understanding Bin Locks<\/h2>\n

\"\"When an unlocked bin is opened by an editor, a\u00a0.lck file<\/strong>\u00a0is created in the project folder, and a green lock icon appears in Avid for that editor. The icon indicates that they have\u00a0read and write<\/strong>\u00a0permissions until they close the bin. If a second editor opens the same bin while it’s locked, they’ll see a snapshot of the most recent save of the bin, with a red lock icon indicating\u00a0read only<\/strong>\u00a0access. If an editor would like to open an unlocked bin with read only permissions, they hold\u00a0option\/alt<\/strong>\u00a0while opening the editable bin.<\/p>\n

False Bin Locks<\/h2>\n

When Avid crashes or is forced to close, the software may lose track of what bins it had open. When Avid relaunches, it may not clear the\u00a0.lck\u00a0files<\/strong> it created before the crash. “Stale” bin locks may be deleted using Finder,\u00a0as long as you confirm the bins are no longer open on the workstation that created the .lck file(s.)<\/strong>\u00a0If an editor has any doubt whether or not a bin is open on their workstation, they should close out of Avid Media Composer on the workstation until the lock file is deleted.<\/p>\n

Missing Bin Locks<\/h2>\n

If your workstation opens bins without green and red bin lock icons,\u00a0stop editing!\u00a0It’s important to fix the problem as soon as possible to prevent data corruption.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a new bin, copy all of your recent work to it, and save it as a backup.<\/li>\n
  2. Ask all other editors that may be in your bins to do the same<\/li>\n
  3. Open Avid Settings > Project > General<\/li>\n
  4. Check the box for Enable Bin Sharing on 3rd party storage emulating Avid Nexus \/ ISIS<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. Confirm at the dialog box to close all bins<\/li>\n
  6. Open your bins again and check for bin lock indicators (if you still don’t see them, restart your workstation.)<\/li>\n
  7. Once bin locks are re-established, replace any outdated sequences in the original bins using your backup bin<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
