I think, maybe next year, it would be nicer for your customers if you'd share this news earlier as I imagine it's been known for a while that this would be the case. The Big Sur developer betas have been out since WWDC. I really hope we don't see Capture One 21 appear next month with full Big Sur support but prior versions left with no support and no message of whether support will even come. As a software engineer I understand how difficult it can be to keep up with major OS updates while also trying to focus on your features but I think the message might've been a little better if there was some indication as to when you're aiming to actually support Big Sur with current versions of Capture One. At the least, you should try to test your Intel version on Rosetta 2. I think that Adobe plans to have native ARM versions available on day one of the release of the Apple ARM machines. Certainly it will take time to do a native ARM version of Capture One but at least if you could test the Intel version on Rosetta 2 on ARM machine, that would be a big benefit to your clients. At a minimum, I think you could test the Intel version of Capture One to see whether it works via the Rosetta 2 translator on Apple ARM machines. What about the Apple ARM processors? Apple has seeded the development community with ARM machines to test on. It is reasonable to have to hold off for a few weeks when a new release of Mac OS becomes available but extended delays are very frustrating. I realize it's a tough call at times, where to assign precious programming resources. We kind of expect product developers to at least jump on the late beta's to begin testing.Īt the same time though you may be planning your own major release, as you often do for end of November (right?), and it could be a substantial diversion right now to try to make the current version work with Big Sur when you have a major release coming soon. Many of us are frustrated by the time lag of complying with new releases of Apple Mac OS because it looks like Apple provides beta releases well in advance of major and minor OS production releases. If you have updated your OS which is not yet supported by Capture One, and you are having issues you will need to contact Apple support with regards to rolling back your operating system.ĭiego, thank you for the clear explanation. And if Capture One is vital to your workflow, then you should always consult the release notes prior to installing any OS updates. Our release notes are always available to read prior to purchasing and downloading Capture One. For instance, with macOS 10.15 Catalina tethering was broken with Capture One versions that did not support this OS. This also applies to any hardware/cameras you may be using with Capture One.
