Can a PC open a Mac Resolume doc?

I use the Mac version of Resolume Avenue. And I bought a Resolume dongle, which I have yet to transfer the license to. In case I get hit by a bus... and need somebody else to grab my dongle (as it were) and take over... I'm thinking I should maybe format a hard drive as ExFAT and place all the media and files on there so that it is readable by a PC... in case that's the new dude's platform preference. But what about Resolume itself? Even if the new operator is able to download a PC version of the software... will it be able to read my existing Mac Resolume document?

Or should I just forgo PC compatibility entirely?

And walk across busy streets more carefully?

The dongle is 8GB, so you'll be fine with FAT32 ;)

The best would be collecting the composition to the drive you want to use to move between machines.

Then you should be able to open the composition up with all the media already connected.

Wire patches, shortcut presets would need to be copied over manually. Effect plugins would need to be installed separately.

I am switching the composition between the two platform almost every week-end without issue, so no problem at all.

As Zoltan said remember to copy the preset and for me is also fundamental the output preset.
