Anyone else struggling with 17?

PostTue Jan 05, 2021 8:37 pm

I had some multicam projects I was working on before upgrading, loads of angles but was fine in the last version and never lagged. Now I upgraded it's been horrible, project constantly crashing when I try to do things, it's even crashed my computer about 3 times.

It also just keeps closing my project down, no warning no error message just instant close and gone, I moved to Resolve thanks to Premiere bugs finally wearing down on me but now they're becoming on par :lol:

Sucks since 17 has some great new features I like but I guess I'll have to roll back for now :(

17 is still in beta. It is not recommended for production use.

FWIW, it has NEVER crashed on either my laptop or my 10 year old PC. YMMV of course.
Windows 11 laptop. Intel i7-10750H, 32GB RAM, Nvidia 4070 ti Super eGPU, SSD disks. Resolve Studio (latest)

I'm just playing around as my state's Tyrant has me shut down, but I've been finding 17 Beta quite usable with only a few issues.
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
