I'm not familiar with the quirks of Cineasset, but on general troubleshooting...
What changed since it was working? Was there an OS update? Did you try a clean re-isntall yet? (app install, although OS would be a nuclear option)
Did Cineasset rely on apple's legacy emulation support for software written for intel macs? Maybe an M3 update finally nuked that feature?
Are you sure that they are both on the same OS version? Sequoia is up to 15.3 and 15.4 is in beta. No, you won't have the beta unless you are in the test group but the point is that there has been a few updates and more are on the horizon.
There have been a few updates, either between 15.1 and 15.2 or between 15.2 and 15.3 which change the way the Device Address Resolution Table (DART) is managed. There was another one, I forget exactly, but it changes the way the OS handles unified memory. Also, between the M1 chip and the M3, there have been tweaks to the GPU.
Even though it looks the same from behind the steering wheel, there have been some improvements under the hood that might make it handle differently. On top of that, you're running an application that was written for Intel processors, running on the newer M3, using Rosetta. That's a whole other kettle of fish.
IMO, your best course of action would be to find an OS and processor combination that works and stick with it.
I'm kind of in that same boat. I've got the full versions of Final Cut and Adobe Creative Suite. They are both Mac-Intel apps and they won't run on any OS newer than 10.10. I can't update any farther than that or else a thousand bucks worth of software will go belly up! The new version of Final Cut isn't too expensive, a few hundred. I should be able to start using GIMP and InkScape to replace the Adobe stuff but I can't worry about that stuff, now. I'll have to do it when I can get a new computer. Until then, I'm kinda' stuck where I am.
