Waiting for the Video Engine to launch...
I can't enable the Video Engine in Protools 2019.5 and Mojave.
No problem with High Sierra and PT 2019.5. Am I the only one? Cheers, Detlef. |

No, you're not the only one... I can get it going with a restart, but then need to restart again after a few hours. ..or loading new sessions.

Re: Waiting for the Video Engine to launch...
Any of you using a Blackmagic driver? I know different versions are hit and miss and really effect VE performance.

Re: Waiting for the Video Engine to launch...
It doesn't seem to matter whether I am using the BM driver or not. I have to restart the whole system multiple times a day to keep the video engine working at all.

Re: Waiting for the Video Engine to launch...
Note, I contacted support and they got back to me with the following..
Please try to delete Pro Tools preference files. This procedure will reset Pro Tools preferences to a default state. Try this to correct odd or erratic behavior in the application: Go to folder ~/Library/Preferences/Avid/Pro Tools From the Finder, click on the Go menu in the menu bar. Select Go to Folder. Type in the following: ~/Library/Preferences/Avid/Pro Tools and click Go. Delete all files in this folder, including: AvidListFile.txt DSIPrefs InstalledAAXPlugins Last Used.pio Pro Tools Prefs updater.properties ....so I tried that. Didn't change anything and I still have to restart the system after a while. (oh and it took a while to rebuild all the preferences etc.)
