Hi all, I've got a Macbook Pro 16'' M1 with 16 gigabytes of RAM. The qualified hardware PDF on Avid's site says I'd need a Macbook Pro with 32 gigs of RAM. Is there any chance I could run Media Composer on my laptop, or is the qualified hardware dead set? Thanks, Aidan

Hi Matthew!

The 8600 ran very well for several years on as recently as Symphony 7 or thereabouts. We currently have the...

Hi all, we're currently dealing with some Avid-problems on our iMac, such as: - When jumping back and forth in the timeline, the progress ball appears very often and from time to time, Avid crashes without any reason. - We had to translate a lot of (documentary) material using subcap effect.
