"Adobe no longer addresses bugs in a timely maner."
In past versions, I've had times where I had to wait 4-6 months for a patch to come out so I could use the newest version on my system with my hardware/media. And actually, they had more long-term bugs then than now.
I watch the public beta releases, and they routinely have notices there of fixed bugs ... so they are getting things out. Not everything nearly as fast as we'd like, nope.
How we each 'feel' it's doing is based largely on our own experience, and if you're the one with a bug, well ... it's a biggy. Even if 90% of the user base is not having the issue. Been there done that. It's irritating, yep.
It's maddening to me as a user that the performance we are all getting at this time varies so much. Most are working fine, but the issues that are popping up are so often .... just weird. In that trying to figure out what kit/media/effects use triggers them is near impossible 'here'.
It used to be a lot easier to troubleshoot 'here' ... you're having X problem, and with Y media on Z kit. Well ... do this, bingo bango bongo, thank you you're rolling. Not now.
My 24-core Ryzen 3960X w 128GB of RAM and a 2080Ti is screaming, best performance I've ever had really. Using mostly BRAW, but some mov, some H.264, some Red/Sony/Panny files.
But another user with nearly identical kit posted about getting hammered by like three different things. I can't repro any of them ... the same media works perfectly here.
What ... The ... Hay!
And the same thing is happening with a number of the Resolve users, vastly different results on similar rigs. I think maybe it's the "be all things for all hardware all media all workflows" goal ... as since Resolve went down that route also, they've had more issues.
