Default Re: Blinking play button?

I've only seen this when I've had playback issues: Hit play and it just blinks instead of plays.
I haven't seen it on a healthy system like you describe.

My main suspect is Satellite and/or HDX or a combination of both.
So far seen this on 3 different mixing stages running 3-6 Satellite rigs. Blinking randomly starts on one random rig (never more than one and never on the admin rig) and doesn't go away for days then at some point it stops and randomly comes back. So far haven't found a way to trigger or stop it. It doesn't seem to cause any other trouble or errors. Just distracting.

I saw the same thing yesterday on my HDN system (PC). I have seen it before on both mac and PC. I had thought it was a clocking issue, but never was able to verify that.

I’ve had this before and the culprit was an AVX plug-in conflict. I had Media Composer installed and one of the plug-in s caused this conflict. If you find this folder in the Avid plug-in folder, quit PT then try removing this folder and relaunching. Worked for me a few times in the past.
