Not sure I fully understand but the Applications folder is system wide. Once installed it's available for all users.

Re: DNS One authorization Help

You should have a serial number or authorization code from wherever you bought it. Then you have to put that code in the License manager (Applications/ Cedar/License Manager)

Then it will work.

Re: No Delay Compensation for Automation

What is the hardware buffer size being used? If you can drop it down it will lower the overall delay and tighten up and minimize the effect. This is a very real issue, it's not a bug tho. The only...

Re: Why does PT 12.4 HD not spread CPU load evenly on cores?

Re: Video stutter - please help!

Yes, you are on the edge. My best guess is your plugins. Altiverb is a bit of a pig if I recall correctly - If you have 20 instances that alone could be causing the memory stress on the system. ...

Hey Exodius,

I think it is still worthwhile trying "Normal". What is your System Usage window showing on the Disk Cache window? Also open up Activity monitor and see what is using your RAM?

Re: 59.94 Video Jitters / Jerky Playback with 10.1.1 Blackmagic Drivers

I noticed something similar when upgrading one of our rooms but haven’t seen it since. This video file was 23.98fps for sure, so I’m not sure that it is frame-rate dependant.
