Recordings Showing As Blank (For Some Users)
I've been recording with a colleague using Descript. I have full permissions to his Descript Drive as we both edit and export episodes & clips.
We record two times per week - one long-form (~1 hour) and one short-form (~20 mins).
Over the past two weeks, I can see the long-form recordings and edit them as normal. However, I cannot see the short-form ones. I see them in the drive, but when I click on them they just show up as a blank project. When in the list of recordings, it says the short-form recordings' duration is 0:00.
When my colleague (drive owner) goes into the short-form projects he sees them normally and is able to edit/export.
Things I've tried:
- Clear local cache on the short-form recordings within Descript
- Use Descript on an entirely different computer
- Log in and log out
- Wait for days to see if the recordings appear for me (assuming something is happening on the backend perchance)
- Going back to the earliest version using Descript's version control
This feels like a permissions issue to me, but why would it work with our longer recordings?
