Is Anyone Seeing More Crashes Since 18.0.3?

Is Anyone Seeing More Crashes Since 18.0.3? It's crashing every few minutes for me. Never had that problem with prior versions.

Yes, I have on my original post: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=167658 but haven’t seen any acknowledgement there. Files are at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/b9zk63u9qgjd8 ... 0.zip?dl=0

I had to post it to Dropbox at BMD’s suggestion because the entries for prior years made the logs too big for this forum to accept and BMD didn’t want the smaller logs with prior years’ entries stripped out.

Yes, I've been having the same issue. I've adjusted some of the settings (proxy playback) and it has helped marginally, but it's still crashing.

I *may* have found a workaround. The crashing definitely started when I upgraded to 18.0.3, and I don't think going from 18.0.2 to 18.0.3 required a database upgrade so I'm not sure why it would have happened. Before deciding to downgrade back to 18.0.2, I decided to try reproducing the project file to see if it was file related. So far, it appears to be.

I thought that if it was a corrupt file, then the backup would be corrupted too, so I created a new, empty project file. I then exported the project settings from the original project file and loaded them into the new one. Then back in the old project file I selected all the bins in the left-hand pane of the media pool and chose FILE > COPY from the menu. I then opened the new, empty file and pasted them into the media pool.

Lo and behold it seems to have worked. I had to re-link some original media and proxies en masse but everything plays. I've been adding duration markers to a multi-cam clip for a few hours now and have experienced no crashes. I even played a 6K timeline with raw media that my system couldn't keep up with and it didn't crash, whereas previously I could perform one operation and it would crash.

Give this a try and see if it helps you.

Been a long time since the speed editor needed an update. Unfortunately the last update of resolve required and update (it's always worked fine) for the Speed Editor which turned it into a brick for me. It only works when plugged in via cable for me now Bluetooth is bricked which means for my setup for now it is brick until i can go to store 100km away (or order online) and buy super long usb cable.

Have done a factory reset tried pushing stop/play, cut/smthcut cut/smthcut/source/timeline as resolve starts. Can plug it in and it works but with bluetooth it now is a cool paperweight.

Anybody have same problem?
