Al,

Are you getting messages like "Message Queue Removed" or "could not write
FILE ADDED message to sterr"? I just ran into this 2 days ago where a host
of jobs just stopped in the middle and stayed there. Jobs launched after
did OK. Veritas told me it's a problem addressed by MP4 that they thought
they had taken care of in MP3.
