Recovering a Corrupted Archive

If the table of contents of an archive on tape is corrupted, Flame may not be able to read it. If this happens, open the archive using the OTOC.

Once you open the archive, you can restore the entire contents of the archive. Do this, for example, if the tape has been damaged.

To restore the archive:

1. Open the archive.

   If the table of contents is corrupted, the following message appears:

   CLIP MGT: Warning! Cannot read archive header. Select online TOC?

2. Click Confirm to open the OTOC.

   The file browser appears.

3. Select the OTOC for the archive you are trying to open and click Confirm.

4. Select the entire contents of the archive. Make sure you have sufficient space on your storage for the contents of the archive.

5. Click Restore.

6. When the restore is complete, click Close.

   The restored clips appear in the selected clip library.

7. Create a new archive with the material.
