The main reason I ordered so early on, was because I expected delivery delays because of either lockdowns or a huge demand - and both was true and even I had to wait for around 6 weeks - but it was really worth it, the M1 Ultra is a beast! On the third week of April, it finally arrived. On March 9 I ordered the Studio as M1-Ultra with 20 CPU-cores, 48 GPU Cores and 2 TB internal SSD. An expensive excuse to get a 32" display, I know )Īnd actually I'm not the apple-keynote person, but since my iMac was crumbling down, I hoped for a replacement that was powerful enough to do all the work I might dream of. That's when I realized at the March 8 event this year, the Mac Studio is exactly what I needed. While this solution worked to some degree, I found my limits in Photoshop very fast (with just 8 gigs of RAM) and dropping files from one computer and organizing files around different devices wasn't as easy. So the interim solution was to use an inexpensive M1 Mac Mini that I already had for some Photoshop painting and doing all the rest of the work on the recovered iMac, such as printing jobs, emails and small renderings. And no I didn't want to get my hands dirty, replacing an SSD on a 7 years old iMac. That means no dedicated port that passes through the speeds of an external NVME-SSD to get the old thing to be as speedy as the internal thing. The clean desktop not even an iMac allows forĮspecially since the late 2015 iMacs did not have the 3.2 gen USB-C yet at that time, only Thunderbolt 2. But, it wasn't quite the same and not up to speed as before. When my maxed out late 2015 - 4,0 GHz iMac died on me last year, it was possible to recover the dead internal drive from a time machine backup and use it with an external SSD. When Isadora is attempting to output to stages that are set up to displays connected to DisplayLink powered hub we only get a white or grey screen.ġ- enabling syphon from Izzy stages, then using Millumin to playback the syphoned izzy stages works just fine.Ģ- Connecting a HDMI USB-C dongle directly to the Macbook Pro while the DisplayLink hub is still connected still outputs grey screenģ- Disconnecting the DisplayLink powered dock, then connecting the HDMI USB-C dongle directly to the computer allows Izzy to output stages normally as expected.As some of you know, I'm a digital artist, but also into workplace ergonomy, which means I'm always trying to optimize my workspace to be more productive and healthy. Other video playback software addresses those external displays as expected. His computer is the same spec as mine however his USB-C dock is a different model, although relies on the same DisplayLink drivers.Ĭomputer is connected to external display through a USB-C Hub that runs on DisplayLink drivers.Ĭomputer sees external displays fine and displays behave as expected with paying able to playback any video to them, moving windows to them etc. Īlso worth noting, a friend of mine was able to replicate the same exact behaviour on his machine. The problem pretains to the use of Displaylink powered USB-C docks. In both cases the computers were running Mac OS Big Sur and the problem was replicated in Izzy 3.08 as well as in Izzy 3.1.1Īll other settings are correct as far as system preferences and display settings as well as mission control- is off. This problem was replicated on 2 different MacBook pros 2017. I've encountered an issue and been able to replicate it on a couple of machines so wanted to report it in order toġ- see if anyone has encountered this and has a solutionĢ- whether it is something that Mark and brilliant Izzy team is able to address.
