Customers using an INTEL-based Mac who would like to use macOS 14 Sonoma

Warning

Playout of realtime GFX templates can fail, due to a bug in macOS Sonoma. Because of this we recommend all customers using an INTEL-based Mac and realtime GFX to stay with macOS 13.6.x Ventura until Apple solved solves the issue.

General Notes

Before upgrading to v.5.x of our playout applications, please be aware of the following changes.

Note
  • A new activation code is needed to use v.5 of just:live and just:play.

  • The MacMini6,x and MacMini7,x is are not supported anymore any more, and we strongly recommend all customers using such a Mac mini model to update to a new Apple silicon-based Mac mini M1 (Macmini9,1) or Mac mini M2 (Mac14,3, Mac14,12 (M2 Pro)).

  • There are new v.5 documents available, and we recommend all new and existing customers updating from a previous version to read the new user guides.

We ask all users updating from a previous version to follow our update guide, which can be found here: https://toolsonair.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TST/pages/3580594317#Installing-a-new-Version-over-an-existing-Version
