I must admit I have no idea how to show that “Volume Memory Manager” dialog in one of your images… I’ve ever seen it before!!!<br>
<br>
However, it might be that things are working correctly, but the same name shown for each dataset because it is part of a series ( and the name of the series comes from the name of the first file). Without having a few of your files to test with, I can’t tell if they are causing some problem.<br>
<br>
If you ignore the names shown in that dialog, is there any other reason to think it's not working? When you play across time using the Volume Series dialog, does the isosurface change like you expect, or does it stay exactly the same?<br>
<br>
If things are too slow opening ALL of your files, you could try opening a smaller subset of them for testing purposes.<br>
