- comp opened on machine A - saved, closed,
then opened on machine B; saved, closed,
then what we see above is the result of an attempt to re-open that same comp on machine A - Untitled.jpg (12.38 KiB) Viewed 859 times
any comp that at some point is opened and saved on [let's just call it machine B] can never again be opened on [machine A].
these 2 machines operate on a tiny network of the two, with the dongle/license coming from machine A [a multi-seat license].
i can open fusion on either, network render with them, but the instant machine B saves a comp, or a new version of a comp, or the autocomp machine A will never again open it.
doesn't matter how small it is, it can be as innocent as a single node.
it began weeks ago with one of the fusion 17 installs, unsure if that is coincidence or related but this problem appears to be here to stay.
i discovered this problem when i found that using my laptop to do renders across the network was more efficient, and then later discovered that anything saved on 'B' can't be opened on 'A' anymore.
that alone makes no sense, since machine A will open a comp and render it on the renderfarm- it just won't open it in fusion.
---i hate to judge before all the facts are in, but one might think that wouldn't be any different, right?
i have no clue where to even begin debugging this, it is simply impossible to be productive when i have been crippled down to a single machine.
i have a 34" monitor on machine A, machine B is easily 2-3x faster but has a much smaller monitor [18"].
because machine A plays region 1(A) DVDs/BluRay discs and Machine B plays region 2(B); depending on what movie I have playing while I work generally dictates what machine I will to be working on.
or, if I really need the extra real-estate to work, i want to work on machine A.
but at this point i can only work on machine B now. i can plug it into the big monitor, but then machine A just sits there unused!
terribly impractical for me when i have the two machines...
is anybody else experiencing anything this bizarre happening with comps not opening on a 2nd machine!?
how can i fix this?
