    I was attempting to trash my prefs and now I’m thinking i erred. i trashed them from MacHD/Library/Preferences instead of User/Library…
    I do not see a Library folder in my User folder and now there are NO preferences in MacHD folder and I am dropping frames EVERYTIME i try to capture. Any advice?

    UH…whoo boy. You messed up. Seems like you trashed your ENTIRE User Library folder. Are you sure? That’s pretty major. And the ENTIRE Preference folder from the system Library? Dude! That’s FUBAR!

    Might be a total OS reinstall at this point…and FCS. ALL apps.

    To trash preferences SAFELY just download this free app: https://www.digitalrebellion.com PREFERENCES MANAGER. One button trash. Won’t delete user Libraries.
