Hi
I'm testing DP11.
I have found that the wiper - I think it's called - is stuttering during play back. In this video I have one track:

Changing the buffer to higher numbers doesn't change anything.
Anybody with an idea of what is wrong?

Re: Wiper stutter
Every time that's happened to me over the years, it was a plugin GUI that was open. With a very fast Mac and updated plugins, that's no longer an issue for me. Close all your plugin window—if the problem goes away, one of your plugs is the problem. If not, go down the list.
Hopefully, none of your plugs are installed on a remote drive.
An issue for many is the 10 bit color profile.

If you search Color Profile, you'll find the old threads but here are the instructions:
Go to System Preferences/Displays/Color and uncheck Show profiles for this display only. Select any other Color Profile than the Default.
This has been an issue since El Capitán; everything to do with the 10 bit default color profile. DP is not the only app affected.
You will likely see a slight color shift when you do this but it's certainly not an issue for DP, Finale or any of the apps where most users will notice this. If you are doing work that requires critical color balance, you are using monitors and GPUs where this issue does not apply and 10 bit is the right profile.

Re: Wiper stutter
Well it seemed to be an issue with the HiDPI scaling I use with Big Sur.
But as usual a little switching between the different modes was efficient.
But it's strange because my Mac Pro has 2 AMD Firepro 500, and one of them show no activity at all. CPU is around 12%, so the Mac is not working hard or anything.!
Thank you for your reply!
