    Hi,

    After successfully running Compressor (and eventually cleaning down 15Gb to ~5Gb), I have found that it is frequently running itself.

    I can't work out an exact pattern, but frequently after a restart or resuming the system after a suspend the compressor dialogues will start up.

    Is this normal behaviour? What is the pattern for this?

    Cheers,

    Joel

    I have this problem too, and have done across several builds, including 3188 now.

    Found the answer:

    Disconnect the ISO image, and set the CD drive to connect to "Default CD/DVD-ROM" (click on the CD icon at the bottom of the Parallels window....

    This sets the CD by default to be the hardware device, not the Compressor image. If the Compressor image loads, the Autorun will be triggered (the same as if you left an autorun CD in a physical windows box).
