Does an older Dongle work in Win/Mac and Linux?

PostSat Aug 04, 2018 8:57 am

I was offered a used Dongle, about 1,5 years old.
I am still not sure if a Dongle works on MAC/WIN/Linux. Is a dongle always working on all of the operating systems or is there some kind of Linux dongle?

Thank you for your help.

The advanced panel dongle is a special Linux dongle that can render ProRes, the other dongles are Mac, Win 10 and Linux but only the Mac renders ProRes.
Dongles for Resolve 8 and all since still work for v15.
