Fix common issues

When something goes wrong, start with the status message and preflight.

Preflight reports missing files

The project keeps the paths to source files. If a file moved, put it back in the original location or remove it from the queue and import it again.

A 360 export is not recognized by the player

Check that the project format is equirectangular 2:1 and that VR metadata is set to Auto or the correct 360 mode.

The domemaster is not square

For a domemaster, use a square resolution such as 2048 x 2048, 4096 x 4096, or 8192 x 8192.

Syphon does not start

Check that Syphon.framework is in the app bundle and that the app is not running in the Mac App Store sandbox. If no frame is selected, import a video and open it in Preview.

Preview is heavy

Lower Dome Simulator preview resolution, close GPU-intensive apps, or use lighter codecs while working.
