Playhead Stuttering when Audio Scrubbing On (macOS)

PostSun Dec 01, 2024 1:17 am

Hello,

I have a Macbook Pro M1 Pro base 14" laptop (2021) using Resolve Free version. I am not connected to any Blackmagic Thunderbolt devices, just using the built-in audio.

When I scrub through the timeline, from time to time the playhead stutters - it's not smooth. The only way for me to resolve the issue is by turning off "Audio Scrubbing."

*However* - when I connect my Blackmagic 4K Mini via Thunderbolt cable and select that as an audio source, I can audio scrub and move the playhead very smoothly.

Is this just a limitation of the software or does my laptop have a defect?

Using Sequoia 15.1.1

Thank you!

Is this behaviour on both the Edit page and the Fairlight timeline?
Fairlight Studio Console 3 Bay • Merging Hapi • Anubis • Merging Premium VAD (3.4.0) ↔︎ Lawo VSC (1.0.0)
Mac Pro 7,1 Rack • Resolve Studio 19.1.3 • macOS 14.7.3 (23H417) ➩ 11" iPad Pro (M4) 1TB • iPadOS 18.3 (22D63)
