The fix has been tested internally, and will be included in a new beta build, very soon.

We're sorry for the inconvenience. Your situation is precisely why we don't recommend using beta builds for production work.

Is this still not fixed? I'm in the middle of a huge project going into finishing and exporting the OMF is constantly freezing. Do I actually need to go through the process of downgrading my whole project in order to make this work? Please help.

I'm having similar issues with the new beta. For me, the project as a whole doesn't completely freeze, but my AAF window does. Had to downgrade as well to continue these projects.

Soooo basically there's nobody at Adobe that can help with this problem? Or am I the only person on this forum that actually uses this feature for pro work? Just asking.

We're tried, but cannot reproduce the freeze, based on the information you've provided.

Confirming: in PPro beta builds (currently version 26.x), you can reproduce the freeze 100% of the time, exporting 100% of the sequences you've tried?

Update: Yep, you've identified a legitimate bug, introduced in recent beta builds. Fix forthcoming!
