Hello, I have the same question, our current installations use Watchout, however it is difficult to consider using it going forward considering how little evolution there has been in the product in the last few years. For us the feature set is great, but stability and bugs have been known issues don't seem to be addressed. The specific ones that affect us are issues with doing seamless loops (both audio and video), limitations on the number of simultaneous audio files that can be rendered and incompatibility with the RedNet Dante cards. While there may be a new major release in the works, if these little nuisances aren't addressed there will be no one around to buy it if maintenance on the current version is not improved. Although I believe Watchout is still a great fit for our work there are new entrants to the market who can compete, and it is getting harder to explain away all the little things that any system should do, especially one that is this mature, that just don't quite work right.

We have a system using the Focusrite RedNet Dante card. It works in 6.2.2 (although we have other audio issues), but we’ve tried upgrading to 6.5 and 6.6.5 and we get no output. We've confirmed sample rate is 48kHz on both the production and display computers. ASIO4ALL seems to have the same issue, but direct output from the sound card seems okay.
