TOPIC

I want to know if there is a way to select which hard disk the Apple Video Player (AVP) uses when capturing video. When I capture video on my Power Macintosh 8500 using AVP, the video capture always occurs on my external hard drive. The external hard disk is not the startup volume.

Which hard disk will Apple Video Player use as a scratch disk, and is there a way to change the scratch disk in Apple Video Player?

DISCUSSION

Apple Video Player uses the disk it was launched from for temporary disk space. However, if there is not enough space on the default disk, AVP will not look for another disk to use. There currently is no way to change this from within the Apple Video Player. The Famous Apple!
