| In Pro Tools LE 5.3.3, I Cannot playback because of a -6080 error when there is missing audio in the audio bin. |
This is a known issue in Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 for windows.
Playback is not possible when there is missing audio in the audio bin. The audio shows up italicized meaning that the session is accounting for it but the actual file is not present. The workaround is to remove any italicized/missing audio from the audio bin.
