can’t let displays go to sleep anymore with new drivers for Kona LHe

[John Davidson]

I seriously thought I was going crazy. Thank you for posting this. Also, my control panel has up and gone missing on me. Is that happening to anybody?

[Itamar Kool]

Well I have the feeling that there are some weird things going on with this new driver. Some things won’t work with my mouse but do work with my pen….

Actually that is my guess. That it has something to do with the keyboard and/or the mouse and pen functions. Somewhere the new driver interferes.
Only a wild guess…

Yeah, I”m having some weird things going on, timecode breaks on digitize that aren’t there, this display thing, a crash when fast forwarding on my deck – things like that. I’m thinking I might have to rollback.

Same happening with me ever since 7.5.1 drivers on a Kona LHe. If displays go to sleep then it won’t wake.

[John Davidson]

It’s very surprising how buggy it is – especially for bug fix release. I was really excited about the double speed digitize, but now I discover I can’t even use that feature. I’m not at all happy about how many times I’ve had to force shutdown my mac this past week. How in the world did this not get noticed?

Rolled back to the 7.5 drivers and the problem disappeared. Won’t be updating again anytime soon ;-).

If you are experiencing issues related to your displays, it may be because you are using the regular version of the driver and not the NDD version of the driver. In some cases, interaction with the graphics cards and the Macintosh Desktop Display feature can be problematic. This is noted in the support section for the drivers. You may want to try the NDD version of the driver available from the AJA website where you downloaded the regular version, the NDD version is listed second after the regular version:

I did notice that and I am using the NDD version. Still the same problem
