project using text-based editing crashing - Adobe please help!

@Kevin-Monahan @TeresaDemel would love to send some of these project files for anyone at Adobe to take a look at if that's helpful 

Oh and yes I wasn't seeing the timing issues opening the project in 23.3 but I wasn't changing drives. This is a totally different issue.

Hi Stan,

At this point the old projects, some going back over a week in auto-save eventually begin to crash and become unstable when I try and open them in 23.3. They will work for a bit but then eventually I crash. My theory is there's some transcription files that have become corrupted or deleted but I have no idea. Even importing the sequences to new projects becomes unstable. I've literally started a new project in 23.3 from sync importing transcripts as captions from Trint because I can't risk having this happen again. 2 weeks of work down the drain. Beyond frustrated - I've NEVER had a technical issue with Adobe like this. First time a software has brought me to tears since Final Cut Pro hahaha.

@Courtney30536708upzo,

Painful. I don't recall anyone reporting this particular problem. Thanks for all the detail on your troubleshooting efforts. I can't think of an option you haven't tried.

I see one report of text-based not working in multicam, but I still suspect that one was related to getting the right audio track. I have not experimented yet.

When you open this project in 23.3, were all the sequences/clip timing okay? You could create regular sequence transcripts (what in 23.4 are called "static transcripts"). But no, you can't use text-based editing.

Also I don't think my response should be merged as a comment - there really needs to be a warning that this is unstable and people should not begin projects on deadline in it until Adobe bug fixes.

Hi Ann - this is a totally separate issues from the relinking issues (which also sound bad!)

Have basically at this point chalked things up to absolutely losing two weeks of work. Literally rebuilding my project from sync as I have had so many issues with a project built using the text-based editing that I can no longer even trust them to open and play now that i've downgraded to 23.3. Old versions from auto-save are behaving super erratically and I honestly can't troubleshoot this anymore. Editors on deadline do NOT USE. Adobe shipped this before it was ready. Let my 24 hours of absolute hell be your warning.

Also going back to old auto-saves it's lost transcriptions that were working fine? Please, Adobe reach out so we can troubleshoot - feels like this feature wasn't ready for ship.
