Dear Sir:
thank you for the problem report.
FastRawViewer always uses lower case (.xmp) file extension for both write and read of xmp sidecars.
In most cases, extension case does not matter, because not case-sensitive filesystems are used (always on WIndows and in most cases on Mac).
However, if you use case sensitive filesystem on your target computer (Mac Mini) *and* original xmp files - either was initially created by some other software with upper-case extension (than re-used in FRV) - or damaged during file transfer (e.g. external drive you use was formatted with FAT32 or exFAT partition) Than problem you describe looks possible.
We'll try to reproduce such problem and provide some solution in future FRV updates.
