Two EPICs with GIGA-E linked, shot some clips, then can only play clips on master one

[Zhang Ming]

I linked two EPICs with GIGA-E, without SYNC, I can control two EPIC shot or change options, everything runs perfect, but after I shot a clip, the clip on the master Epic plays well, and the clip on the slave Epic just can not be played on EPIC? The strange thing is the clip on the slave Epic is actually OK. I download it to the computer, and every software can use it without any question, but I just can not play it on epic? Why? Also, without link, both Epics has no problem on playback (not those slave clips shot when linked) This is not a big problem, but it confused me. Firmware 3.3.14, 512G SSD. Is this a sync problem?

I think I have come across the same problem before but I didn't have the time to nail down exactly what caused it on set since it wasn't critical. It was a 3D shoot with TC and genlock synced. I'm guessing it has something to do with the Epic being in slave mode.
