I saw this thread and I wanted to drop a short message in regard to some comments. My name is Oliver and I am responsible for Spyder's global wide tech support.
USING SPYDER5 WITH DISPLAYCAL UPDATE
Therefore, if your puck is supported by the 64-bit software, it's advisable to update to it on macOS even if you don't intend to update past Mojave, even though Mojave can still run 32-bit software.Īnd, if what he says is true, it would be best to use a 64-bit build of Displa圜al too. The bug has to do with profiles not "sticking" on login. They have put in some workarounds in their 32-bit software which (only) mostly solve the problem. I ran across a post by one of the developers of the Datacolor software, in which he says they encountered bugs with the 32-bit calibration API on macOS, which don't occur with the 64-bit API. You can still use your old Spyder2/3 with Displa圜al and get superior results than you would with the OEM software. Google SpyderX and Spyder5 and you can see the difference. Previous versions of their calibrator used a grid frame. The lens on the puck?ĬORRECTION: They are not longer providing updates for Spyder2 or 3, which makes sense, but will provide updates for Spyder5.Īs usual, they have not responded to my email. I wrote back and asked if they would explain what they meant by 'lens-based' technology'. "Our new lens-based technology provides a higher level of color accuracy with more precise screen color, shadow detail and white balance”
They are also offering discounted updates for their new puck, 'SpyderX'. ( I don't believe there ever was a Spyder 4 ) ). I've got Spyder 5 Pro, which will be supported, as will Spyder 2 and 3. I've gotten the email that Datacolor is sending out with reassurance about support for 64-bit computing.
