I am posting here basically what I posted on the Adobe forum and will call tech support when I get time to see if they plan on fixing. I want to post here as I know some of you use my method for archiving your DVD clips and upgrading to PSE6 will not work until they fix the issue. Here is the issue:
================================================================================================================
In PSE5 I have 2 catalogs. One for still pictures and one for videos. In PSE5 I would catalog the videos and then use the function within PSE5 to move them offline. This works great in that I have a catalog of all my clips on DVD. I can call them up anytime I need them by clicking on the thumbnail and it would tell me which DVD it is on.
When converting this catalog to PSE6 things don't work out too well. Everything appears to catalog OK, until I click on a thumbnail and just about all the thumbnails ask me to load the same DVD to load it. Luckily I named all my clips by year-month and backed them up as such. So I can see I'm clicking a 9801 (for 1998 January) but it tells me the clip is on 9010 (1990 October)!
Has anyone else experienced issues like this? If so is there a fix? I tried converting again, but ended up with the same results.
I did some more investigating. If I went to the thumbnails that are most recent they were correctly cataloged. So I knew somewhere it would switch over. I found the thumbnail where it starts cataloging incorrectly. Interestingly enough it starts on the 257 thumbnail. I've been in computers long enough to know that 256 is an important number. Seems like a legitimate bug.
