thanks for your feedback.

The Movie Library stores OS X aliases to all locations you add to the 
movie library. The benefit of aliases is that it can often track 
renamed files and moved folders on local volumes as well as 
automatically mount network volumes.

What Remote Buddy does when you select the Movie Library is to resolve 
these aliases with a single call to FSResolveAliasWithMountFlags(). In 
OS X 10.4, this API function call returns with an error if a network 
drive can't be mounted or found. In OS X 10.5, however, OS X seems to 
hang in an endless loop. I've been experienced the same with Coda, 
iMovie HD and IIRC InDesign CS3 - all of which use aliases. After 
replacing the office fileserver, these apps did no longer start since 
they were stuck in the endless alias look of OS X 10.5.

It certainly is a problem, but not a problem that Remote Buddy can 
solve. There is no way for developers to tell OS X 10.5 to stop after 
a certain amount of tries (like OS X 10.4 did by itself) or after a 
specific amount of time. This problem needs fixing by Apple at the OS 
level. The only alternative to that would be to drop aliases 
altogether, including all the benefits like automatic mounting that 
this usually has.
