There is certainly an amount of good reasoning behind the idea that someone with show manager capabilities should be able to do temporary and corrective lens adjustments as well. Depends on the specific idea of a 'show manager'. I mean, if that turns out to be a problem, create your own user without that access level. Creating a standard user with only the necessary access rights for our cinema was the first thing we did once the projector was running.

I'm not sure if this should be in a new thread or not.
We have a SONY-R515P. I need a very long (10m/33ft or so) USB 3 cable to make injesting easier. I've tried a Cable Matters active extension cable but a USB thumb drive never mounts.

Can anyone recommend a USB 3 cable that works with the SONY?

Thanks

You may need to try different extenders/active cables. Does that extender you tried use a CAT5/Ethernet cable? These are usually unreliable, unless of high quality (and price).

Usually, a simple active USB cable should do the job. These are actually cascaded USB Hubs. That said, a typical USB extension is made by using a simple USB hub every five meters. USB hubs reconstruct USB signals completely.

You may also try a USB2 only cable/hub, as USB sticks usually don't deliver USB3 HighSpeed anyway.

Why do you need this extension for the USB connection, but not the SATA/CRU port?
