Plug-Ins 277
Plug-in Version Checker
VENUE software includes a comprehensive database of plug-in information, and this info can be used to greatly simplify the pro-
cess of managing your VENUE plug-ins.
Use this feature to get version details and compatibility information for a plug-in prior to installing, or after it has been installed to
help diagnose or troubleshoot plug-in performance.
Version checking also warns you when you are about to downgrade a plug-in (install an older version over a newer version).
To view plug-in version information:
1 Go to Options > Plug-Ins.
2 Select a plug-in from either list (Plug-Ins to Install, or Installed Plug-Ins).
The Info pane displays details about the currently selected plug-in, including whether a newer version of the plug-in is available.
If a new version is available, you can find out whether it is a recommended update or a critical update. The following dialogs appear
if you choose to install older plug-ins:
• If you choose to install a plug-in for which there is a critical or recommended update, a dialog appears asking you to confirm the
installation procedure.
• A similar dialog appears when attempting to replace an installed plug-in with an older version of the same plug-in. Follow the
instructions on-screen to install anyway, or cancel.
Using System Info to View Plug-in Version Information
Plug-in version information is included in exported System Info data.
The Plug-in sections of the exported System Info file show critical and recommended updates, with links to sites to download or
check for newer versions.
To use System Info for Plug-In Version Maintenance:
1 Insert a USB storage device into any available USB port on the S6L control surface engine.
2 Go to Options > System.
3 Select the Info button.
4 Do any of the following:
• If you have more than one USB device connected, make sure the correct USB device is selected. If it is not, select Next Disk
to cycle through each available disk until the correct one is selected.
•Select Save to proceed and export system info to the selected USB device.
•Select Cancel to dismiss the dialog without exporting.
5 Select OK to confirm the export procedure.
6 Remove the USB device. Transfer the exported file to a personal computer for printing, formatting, archiving or distribution.
7 If viewing the System Info document from a computer with Internet access, use the included links to check for plug-in updates.
In addition to using the plug-in version checker, also check
the VENUE plug-in tabs on the Avid website (www.avid.com)
for the most up to date information
