OS Compatability

Postby SteveKing » 26 Jul 2015, 16:01

Hi,

I use Titan one and Titan mobile. Just wondering if the Titan 9 PC Suite has been tested with, or is compatible with, the forthcoming Windows 10?

I use a Lenovo all-in-one touch screen PC which is quite good, but sadly it came with the truly diabolical Windows 8 OS, so you could see why I may want to upgrade ASAP ;)

Cheers.

I have been at an event with Peter Budd this last week (Avolites test engineer) and Peter informs me that Titan 9 is compatible with Windows 10. That's very welcome news, thanks Peter :)

People seem to have got Titan PC Suite running on Windows 10, but does anyone know when it'll be officially supported?

I've just updated from Windows 8.1 to 10 (and haven't yet updated my Avo software for Titan One); I don't particularly envisage any problems, but was a bit concerned to read in the Release Notes for the PC Suite of 9.1 that "Supported versions on Windows are Windows 7 and Windows 8" - nb not even 8.1 and no mention of Windows 10.

Is Windows 10 officially sanctioned by Avolites, or is everyone running it on a "it seems to work" basis? The latter isn't great for critical show software :-)

Thanks.

Windows 10 is fine, it was tested before version 9.1 was released. See the product page here for details.

Sounds like we need to reword this in the release notes in the future. The main point was that it is not compatible with anything before Windows 7 but I can see how that has become misleading.

Hi,
have anyone noticed more instability or more resource consume upgrading from Windows 7 or 8 to 10?
Any advice will be appreciated, thanks!

I have noticed that since "upgrading" to windows 10 that I am no longer able to keep auto saved enabled while running a show... it will freeze whatever I'm doing for 10 or 15 seconds while it saves (usually at the most inopportune time :x )
I never had this problem with Windows 7 or 8.
