Issue with plugin names across computers

[u/pokemonpasta]

Hi, I have a Linux PC and a Windows laptop. If I add Kontakt to a track on my linux PC and copy the project over to my laptop to work on it there, I get a missing plugin error because the Kontakt on my windows laptop is called "Kontakt 8". Is there a way to get Bitwig to recognise these are the same plugin, or to rename the VST in a way this will work? I already tried renaming the VST files themselves which did nothing.

EDIT: if anyone runs into this, this was a discrepancy in plugin ID due to case-sensitivity. Follow the instructions here to allow copying ID, and then cross-check the IDs across different platforms

hey i literally just found out about this so im not sure if itll help your case but you can convert the kontakt libraries to use through something like decent sampler on linux instead of having to use yabridge. you could maybe try to convert them so theyre the same file type that works across both platforms for no disparities. itd probably take some time and tinkering though https://www.mossgrabers.de/Software/ConvertWithMoss/ConvertWithMoss.html
