Software crash on render of a cloud project

Hello,
I am here to report a bug that causes DaVinci Resolve to crash when starting a render of a timeline in a cloud project.

Here is a minimal reproduction:
Code: Select all
local renderSettings = {
    SelectAllFrames = true,
    TargetDir = "/Users/maximesenger/Desktop",
    CustomName = "test.wav",
}

local project = resolve:GetProjectManager():GetCurrentProject()
project:SetRenderSettings(renderSettings)

local jobId = project:AddRenderJob()
print(jobId)


project:StartRendering(jobId)

local progress = project:GetRenderJobStatus(jobId)
local jobStatus = progress["JobStatus"]

print(jobStatus)


This script will cause the crash (not responding) of DV on macos and windows (not tested on linux) if started on a cloud project. The issue is caused by the `StartRendering` call.

I believe this is not an issue on my side but rather a bug of DV.
Does a workaround exists? Also is the Blackmagic team aware of the issue? And if so, is there an ETA on a possible fix?

Thanks for reading me :)
