Re: [Avid-L2] Connecting Thunderbolt 4 to Thunderbolt 2 on Avid DNxIO?

Marianna,

that's good to hear!

However, as my knowledge is for know: M1 is not supporting TB1/2 at all. Since, for know, there is no PCIe-card extension working on current Apple Silicon (M1 and all derivates) there is no way connecting any TB1/2 devices to a current (except: MacPro2019) machine. I don't know about WIN-machines, however, this seems more likely to be an issue with Apple Silicon and not Intel/AMD-CPU drioven machines.

For John it's the main culprit: Avid DNxIO (since it's TB 1/2-version) will not work on this week released Apple Studio, no matter what Avid MC-version he's running then.

Still, glad to hear Avid is on the case!

Thanks, Marianna!

Best

We are having problems with TB4 PC systems connected to TB2 devices.  Intel is NOT supporting this. Not sure about Apple M1 max/pro.  We have tested TB3 devices on M1+ with 32/64 GB mem and BMD Working as long as video cache is increased to 4 GB.  AJA devices not working with released builds on any M1 device.  We are testing a beta build with a fix now.

 

We will need to update chart with TB4 to TB2 issues and add M1 support nd will do so next week.
