## I use a mix of different operating systems, can I still use Flamenco?
Yes, absolutely. To support multiple platforms, first configure your Manager for
its own platform (so if you run that on Linux, use Linux paths). Then you can
use [Two-way Variables][twovars] to translate those paths to the other
platforms.
Do note that Flamenco was developed on Linux, for the Linux-only [Blender
Studio][studio]. You may find issues that the developers did not run into
themselves. If you do, please [report a bug][bug].

## My Worker cannot find my Manager, what do I do?
First check the Manager output on the terminal, to see if it shows any messages
about "auto-discovery" or "UPnP/SSDP". Most of the time it's actually Spotify
getting in the way, so make sure to close that before you start the Manager.
If that doesn't help, you'll have to tell the Worker where it can find the
Manager. This can be done on the commandline, by running it like
`flamenco-worker -manager http://192.168.0.1:8080/` (adjust the address to your
situation) or more permanently by [editing the worker configuration
file][workercfg].
