Robert,
   OK, sorry. I didn't mean to imply anything here. It just seems
flaky but I guess there isn't much we can do.

   I was sort of wondering about some script that I might run nightly
- say at 3AM - that would run scte65scan and compare it to the
previous day's version. Maybe that would give me a head's up that
something needs to be done?

Thanks,
Mark
