All the videos recorded after 23 March play on the new frontend and all the videos play on the older frontend's. Here is the output of the frontend log, Then file permissions for the 22,23 and 24 on the backend. I installed the frontend on the 23 and also had to delete all capture cards on the backend. One of these 2 actions may be the root of my issues.<br><br>Thanks. I
