Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

My solution to all this Avid “support” is called Nuendo. After twenty-something years of Pro Tools it’s a breath of fresh air and a real time saver.

To each his own of course, but I’m enjoying a...

Re: Pro Tools "Ctrl" button not working

Same here, for no apparent reason CTRL stops working in Pro Tools. Works fine in the rest of the programs, but only rebooting can get PT to listen to my keyboard like it should.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

I’m not the person to ask to compare different CPU’s etc, sorry. However, before I made the jump to PC in July I had a Mac Pro 2010 5,1.

To prepare my transition I installed a bootcamp win 10...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

:D enjoy! Hope it stays that good. Thanks to The Weed for pointing us in this direction.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Try the processor affinity thing on your windows machine, I can help you if you want.

See how good windows can be if you get a hang of it (still learning many things myself after so many years of...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Ok, as promised, the some details.

The processor affinity has a lot to do with this issue.
As I responded to support (I'll paste the conversation below, read from the bottom to top), my...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Ok, this is interesting.


I did what Mr The Weed suggested with the Processor Affinity.

I set this before for Pro Tools, but after the updates that was probably gone. I assigned cores 2 to...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Ok, that was quick.

Pro Tools took only 5 minutes to freak out in 1080, have a look if you want: https://youtu.be/QdZ_jc7AByU

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Thanks for the suggestion, I might try that later. The idea makes sense.

UPDATE: After running at 1080p for about an hour (yes, I rebooted and all that) I can tell you that THAT is not the problem.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Hehehe, I recognize much of what you say, but don't have the cash lying around for a Mac Pro, so apart from the direction both OS-es are going and the vibe I get from Apple (more and more AVID-like),...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

That is an impressive machine, I’m just not convinced OSX is better for Pro Tools anymore. YMMV

As long as you know your way around and are familiar with the problems, that will save you time...

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Working with remote clients and session artists in the current situation renders that an impossibility here, but apparently that doesn’t matter anyway.

Not cpu related here either.

Could you ask support to chime in here, if they ever respond?

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Well, I thought I got rid of it, but just came back to check a bounce I let run (realtime because I use a bunch of outboard) and unfortunately it was a graphics freakshow again.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

Still good here. Did the suggested methods not help?

I read there are some GUI issues on OSX as well, not aware if it’s related.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10

I did not try the actual suggestion by that other thread, but that did point me in the (seemingly) right direction for my case.

Re: Pro Tools 2020.5 GUI FREAK OUT on Windows 10
