Indefinitely "Analyzing File..."

I am having a major issue, and am wondering if anyone else has encountered this. Since beginning to use Bitwig, and since I use it to DJ as well as produce, I have spent countless hours stretching tracks and building up my clip library. I recently converted my external hard drive, where the clips reside, to ExFat so that I could experiment with using Ubuntu, and to prepare for possibly getting a Surface Pro. Now, when I go to add one of my clips to the launcher, Bitwig hangs indefinitely on "analyzing file..." and never loads the file, even though the file path is the same. I have also now tried to connect the clip to the same file on a backup hard drive that is still formatted for Mac OS Extended, and it's the same issue - hangs indefinitely on "analyzing file..." Has anyone had this issue and if so, do you have any idea how to solve it? I hope no one else experiences this as literally 100s of hours of work are now unavailable to me until this is solved...

The only time I have ever experienced Bitwig analyzing an audio file indefinetely was after waking my computer from sleep in 1.2 Beta 7.
I havent been able to reproduce it again.
Best to contact tech support on this one.

In case anyone else has this issue, in my case, I was able to solve it by reformatting the drive to NTFS using Paragon for Mac. It seems exFat may not work well with Bitwig.
