I also don't think Avid is inclined to make dark mode better. For some reason, the team determined that what they delivered was exactly what they intended for dark mode. Having said that,...

Re: Protools 2020.20 on Cataline broke Video export
Lessons learned:

Re: inputs inactive
Protools likes exclusive usage of the audio device. In other words, it does not like to share audio devices. Since I assume the Apollo Solo is normally available and not used buy Windows system...
