[JIML] READ ME v.2025.3
Changes/Adjustments
Please find changes and adjustments below:
Supported macOS Versions and Apple Hardware
The Just In Mac Lite application has been improved to accommodate the latest macOS features and is fully macOS Sequoia (15.7.x), macOS Sonoma (14.8.x), and macOS Tahoe (26.x) certified.
Important Update: Starting with version 2025.2, the Just In Mac Lite application will be optimized exclusively for Apple silicon hardware (M1-M4) to provide you with the best performance and experience!
By fully transitioning to the Apple silicon platform, we ensure optimal performance, stability, and compatibility with the latest advancements.
If you are planning to deploy the Just In Mac Lite application on qualified INTEL-based Macs (MacPro7,1 or Macmini8,1) please consider using version 6.5 or version 2025.1!
Nevertheless, we will, of course, continue to support our customers who still have certified Intel-based Macs running qualified versions of just:in mac lite.
Online License Activation:
The Just In Mac Lite application uses an online license system for activating, deactivating, and checking your license status. So, for any online activation process to work, you will need online access. Please ensure that this is available before starting the one-time online activation process.
Installation of Apple Pro Video Formats (TOA Installer image)
Please ensure to download and install the Apple Pro Video Formats from Apple’s website, as they provide support for the listed codecs (see screenshot below) used to capture files with the Just In Mac Lite 2025.x application, to ensure compatibility with professional video workflows.
If this has been done previously, then no action is required. The Apple Pro Video Formats codecs can be found at: “/Library/Video/Professional Video Workflow Plug-Ins”.
Supported Blackmagic Design DeckLink Drivers
The Just In Mac Lite 2025.3 application fully support the new generation of Blackmagic Design DeckLink drivers 15.x and higher.
When using Blackmagic Design I/O cards please ensure that the “Input Conversion” settings is set to “None” as any other settings might interfere with the correct channel input acquisition process.
New “Local Network” Settings within macOS Sequoia (15.x.x) and higher
The new Local Network Security feature in macOS Sequoia (15.x.x) and higher enhances privacy and control by allowing users to manage which apps can access their local network. This feature addresses concerns over unmonitored network access, providing an extra layer of security by ensuring that only trusted applications have access to local network resources, such as printers, file-sharing devices, and other computers. In macOS Sequoia, users are prompted when an application attempts to access the local network for the first time, enabling them to allow or deny access (“System Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network”).
When running the Just In Mac Lite application for the first time on macOS Sequoia and higher you will be asked to allow it to discover and connect to devices or other applications on your network. Please click on the “Allow” button to ensure the application to connect to devices or other application on your networks.
To double-check the connection status, go to “System Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network” and ensure that Just In Mac Lite is enabled.
