Fixed: Magic ID Error When Opening Sessions (Item #112750)
* In certain cases sessions will not open due to the following error: "Could not complete the Open Session command because magic ID does not match while translating Session Window Config." This error is more likely to occur in tandem with very large track counts (~100) and long (>1 hour) recordings.
Fixed: Mouse Offset and General GUI Problems With Third Party Plug-ins (Item #112890)
* Certain third party plug-ins such as Addictive Drums or UVI Workstation will not function correctly under Pro Tools 8. Mouse clicks are vertically offset and parts of the plug-in GUI will not draw correctly.

Fixed: Crash When Removing Files that are also used in Transfuser (Item #107710)
* Removing a file from the Pro Tools region list or project browser may crash Pro Tools if another audio file with the same name is already used by Transfuser.
Fixed: Channel width changes may remove downstream mono plug-ins and related automation without warning. (Item #112589)
* Changing the channel width by inserting a mono-to-stereo plug-in to a mono track will remove a downstream mono plug-in (and all its automation data) that resides on underlying insert slots without warning.
Fixed: Satellite Protocol Communication Issues
* This fix is recommended for all users of Video Satellite LE
* When using Pro Tools 8.0cs1 or higher with Video Satellite LE, all connected satellite systems must be running Pro Tools 8.0cs1 or higher.

Jun 4, 2008
MacOS X UB
Added: Expand to New Tracks by Time Code Only (Item # 102582)
The new Expand To New Tracks By Time Code Only feature lets you expand a track or selected region to new tracks, revealing all other regions recorded at the same time code location, regardless of channel name or number. Please Note: Time code features in Pro Tools LE require optional purchase of DV Toolkit 2.
Background
This feature is useful when expanding edited guide tracks to original source audio which was recorded while referenced to time code, but channel names or numbers were not written to the audio files. For example, when a live concert is recorded in Pro Tools, then a guide audio track is edited along with the video, then the edited guide track is returned to Pro Tools and needs to be expanded to the original source tracks for mixing.

Pro Tools LE v 7.1.1cs2
Oct 6, 2006
MacOS X Intel
Fixed: Relink Problems With Avid Audio, and When Using Mtools, Soundminer, or NetMix to import files (Item #77061, 79230, 81138)
Files without unique IDs imported into Pro Tools could not be later relinked if the file name had later been changed by the user from the Finder level.
Using "Automatically Copy on Import" created a duplicate file only when using Soundminer. Only the Pro Tools-created file (with an appended "2") was assigned a Unique ID.
Relink problems would occur when reopening the session
Pro Tools will now:
Automatically add a unique ID to audio files when opening a session or importing audio.
Recognize Avid unique IDs, even when DigiTranslator is not present.
Fixed: When Using Network Home Directories, Pro Tools Would Not Launch if the Library/Preferences Directories Were Not On A Local File System (Item #78524)
Fixed - Standard Type 1 MIDI files, exported from Pro Tools 7.x, could not be read by some applications (item #71254)
Pro Tools LE v 7.1cs10
Oct 6, 2006
MacOS X PPC
Fixed: Importing Files By Drag and Drop Could Prevent The Session From Being Saved (Item #80417)
MP3, MP4, WAV and AIFF were affected
A subsequent Save, Save As, Save A Copy or Auto-Backup would result in an assertion error
Note: this problem was inadvertently introduced in Pro Tools LE 7.1cs9
Fixed - Standard Type 1 MIDI files, exported from Pro Tools 7.x, could not be read by some applications (item #71254)
Fixed: Relink Problems When Using Mtools, Soundminer, or NetMix to import files (Item #81138)
Using "Automatically Copy on Import" created a duplicate file only when using Soundminer. Only the Pro Tools-created file (with an appended "2") was assigned a Unique ID.
No Unique ID was being added to files imported by Mtools or Netmix
The relink problems would occur when reopening the session
Fixed: Problems When Launching in a Microsoft Active Directory Configuration (Item #75908)
When using local storage the error posted was "Unable to Locate Digidesign Hardware."
Note: This fix was previously issued in Pro Tools 7.1cs7, but failed in later versions due to an installer problem.
Pro Tools LE v 7.1cs9
Jul 27, 2006
MacOS X PPC
Fixed: Pro Tools Always Overwrites Automation in Existing Playlists When Using "Import (Session Data): Overlay New on Existing Playlists" (Item # 63172)
Pro Tools would not allow a session with a 2-hour start time to overlay automation data on a session with a 1 hour start time without clearing all automation before 2 hours on the destination session.
Fixed: Volumes With Japanese Naming Will Not Mount In DigiBase (Item #73463)
DVD, CD, and hard drive volumes with Japanese naming will not mount in DigiBase.
It was also not possible to create a Pro Tools session on a Japanese-named volume without getting an error.
Fixed: Some Automation Moves Could Be Written Incorrectly When Writing Immediately After A "Play" Command (Item#78032)
This could occur when touching a control immediately after a "play" command, but before the transport started moving.
Fixed: Potential Problems When Relinking Audio Files (Item #77061, #79230)
If DigiTranslator was not installed, Pro Tools would assign a new unique ID to a copy of an Avid audio file when using "Save A Copy." This was because Pro Tools required DigiTranslator to read Avid unique IDs.
Files without unique IDs imported into Pro Tools could not be later relinked if the file name had later been changed by the user from the Finder level.
Pro Tools will now function in the following way:
Automatically add a unique ID (as needed) to audio files when opening a session or importing audio.
Recognize Avid unique IDs, even when DigiTranslator is not installed.
Fixed: When Using Network Home Directories, Pro Tools Would Not Launch if the Library/Preferences Directories Were Not On A Local File System (Item #78524)
Network Home Directories are sometimes used to provide the same settings and files to users on multiple machines on a network. This fix allows the Library/Preferences Directories to be on a Network Home Directory instead of being required to be on the individual local system.

Jul 6, 2006
MacOS X Intel
Fixed: Pro Tools Always Overwrites Automation in Existing Playlists When Using "Import (Session Data) - Overlay New on Existing Playlists." (Item # 63172)
Pro Tools would not allow a session with a 2-hour start time to overlay automation data on a session with a 1-hour start time without clearing all automation before 2 hours on the destination session.
Automation cannot be "combined" with an overlay - the destination session's automation will be replaced from the Session Start time of the source session.
Inserts and sends must be consistent between sessions or they may be overwritten.
Fixed: Volumes With Japanese Naming Will Not Mount In DigiBase. (Item # 73463)
Volumes with Japanese naming will not mount in DigiBase and will not allow you to create a Pro Tools session without an error.
Fixed: Opening or Importing an OMF With AIFF Media Would Result In An Error (Item # 77908)
This would result in an assertion error.
DigiTranslator users only.
Fixed: When Using CoreAudio Input To Record With Third Party Applications, Digital Noise Would Result. (Item # 78481)
Note that this problem only occurs with Intel-based Macs.

Fixed: Could Not Always Copy Time Code Values from Region Start/End/Length Fields (Item #72677)

Pro Tools LE v 7.0cs4
Feb 4, 2006
MacOS X PPC
Fixed: When Recording on a Track with a Long Track Name, Recording Would Stop After 5 Minutes (Item #71869)
This would happen with a file name longer than 26 characters, as this could result in a file with more than 31 characters.
Fixed: Pro Tools Can Freeze When Attempting To Make a Crossfade (Item #72143)
This would happen when attempting to bring up the Fades dialog if there was no underlying data to make the crossfade. Fade commands that do not bring up the Fades dialog would not cause the problem.
Pro Tools LE v 7.0cs3
Jan 14, 2006
MacOS X PPC
Fixed: Destructive Record Could Intermittently Leave Out the Left Side of a Stereo Track (Item #71408)
This could happen when performing a bounded destructive record.
Fixed: Automation Breakpoints Were Not Being Created in Some "Write" Mode Circumstances (Item #71130)
In "Write" mode, breakpoints were not being created on "start" and "stop."
Fixed: Automation Playback Could Lag on the Right Side of a Stereo Track (Item #71647)
This would occur after an instantaneous automation change, such as what using the trim tool might cause.

With a send assigned, banking the control surface could result in an "unexpected quit."
Fixed: Problems With Fade Dialog Preview (Items #70503, 70505)
Previewing a crossfade or auditioning an existing crossfade in the Fades dialog results in clicks or no audio.
Fixed: Track Meters Flicker When Processor Setting Is Dual-RTAS (Item #70647)
Flicker could occur on stereo meters when tracks were set to "no input" with pre-fader metering disabled. Note - this does not occur with single processor RTAS setting.
Fixed: Inaccuracies With Groove Quantize (Item # 70393)
