Hello Vitus!

Try setting "Slow Media: Yes" for the file base -- that should make Mystic automatically copy each file to a temporary directory before sending it to the user. More info here:

https://wiki.mysticbbs.com/doku.php?id=config_filebase_editor#slow_media

Note that "Slow Media: Yes" prohibits any uploads to the file base, so if you want users to be able to upload files to that file base, you will have to find another solution (e.g. clear the read-only attribute manually for all files that you copied from a CD-ROM).

Hope this helps!

Best regards
