Turn off Conflicted files
We use automation systems to play music files for two radio stations. Each time the automation plays the file it writes to an open log file and writes to the meta data of the music file. It creates thousands of conflicted files. I think for those who do not need or care if more than one entity is using the file...I recommend some method to turn off creating those conflicted versions of files.

Hi there Billwmce - thanks for posting on our Community and sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Can you please let us know how those conflicted files are created exactly? I mean, are you taking particular steps and using specific software/3rd party app(s) to do this? How are those changes logged in the file's version history and your events page?
Any additional information is more than welcome!
