Issues with Premiere 23.5 on M2 Ultra Studio

I have been using premiere for over 15 years now. I have never experinanced such a buggy version. Ever since I got the MAC STUDIO M2 Ultra, Premiere has been nothing short of a nightmare. From issues of editing with two monitors, two video not being played on the timeline. Massive lagging. Not able to render anything. Someone FIX this version. Come out with an update already.

    Just in case anyone has the same issue I was having, found out the root cause was the Sony Catalyst Prepare plugin which was the cause of all my woes. After removing the plugin, Premiere is behaving normally. Shout out to Kyle P. for helping me isolate the issue.

    Just installed 14.3 Sonomo.  All working fine except for Lumentri scopes which haven't worked since I installed earlier versions of Sonoma.   The only workaround I have is to close scopes, reopen the scopes panel, deselect Vectorscope and then reselect.  The scopes as saved then reappear.  A pain but not infuriating.

     

    System is M2 Mac Studio Ultra 64GB Sonoma 14.3

    I'm curious if this bug was squashed in Sonoma 14.3 -- anybody try it out?

    Hi all - another update:

    Apple has identified the source of the bug. I anticipate that it will be fixed in a future MacOS update.  My understanding is that it's a complex bug to fix, so it may take additional time to get fixed in the OS.

    To facilitate a quicker improvement for users, Apple has also provided us with an application side code change which will workaround the bug. This change is available for testing now in the latest Premiere Pro Beta (24.2.0.34) dated 2023-12-01.  I've verified it myself but if anyone else experiencing this bug wants to validate that this Beta version (or newer) also solves the problem on their end, that would be helpful. If we don't find any negative side effects as a result of this workaround, it will be available in a future non-Beta version of Premiere Pro as well.
     
    As I mentioned above, I also expect an eventual MacOS update to resolve this issue. This will be useful for those users who do not wish to update their versions of Premiere Pro.

    I will provide another update when I have concrete Premiere Pro (non-beta), or MacOS version numbers which resolve the poor playback when "Displays have separate Spaces" is disabled.

      I accidentally let my M2 Ultra update to the latest version of Sonoma; haven't noticed any problems with Premiere V24.

      Sonoma 14.1‌.2 was just released with "Bug fixes" -- anybody brave enough to try it?

      My understanding (though limited) is this has something to do with Apple. Other software (Blender, Jump Desktop, etc) are having the same issue.

            Do you have a release date on fixing this issue? We had to change the way we use our dual monitors to have a decentish experience but this was first informed in August and we are already in december... We shouldn't have to change our whole setup just to make the adobe suite run decentish

            I just did the update.. it made no difference. Still stuttery on GUI monitor, still smooth on the mercury transmit monitor.
