Question

seriously Adobe what are you doing with the 14.6 update ???

Since 14.6 update (W10) Premiere is constantly crashing/freezing when :

  • changing timeline settings
  • drag and drop clips in the timeline
  • Add tracks to a sequence
  • Copy / Paste
  • Delete a sequence in a bin

 

I'm not the only one to have this problem (tested on 4 differents computers of my pro wo-workers)

Seriously ?? I've been a professional client since CS6 and I've rarely seen software sink over time... With each of your updates it's the same thing: you add functions that are often useless to the prosumers and you destroy what used to work. Please quickly correct these problems otherwise it would be great to remove the "Pro" mention in "Premiere Pro"

We all pay more than 700 euros a year for your software. As professional users, we hope to be able to buy our peace of mind with a work tool worthy of the name.
Is your goal to disgust your business customers to switch to Resolve or Avid?

 

Hardware :

Premiere "Pro" (14.6.0 Build 51)
Windows 10 (20H2)

Geforce RTX 2080 (457.30 studio drivers)

80 GB Ram

4xSSDs in RAID 5 (dedicated hardware controller)

Same experience here (and tried trashing prefs/media cahce etc). Beachballs when moving clips in timeline so I didn't get far beyond that. 14.6 is totally unusable. 

This was on a current project, not a new one started fresh.

because as a professional I think it's important to have software that's bug-free. This is still not the case in 2020 for Premiere Pro. I hope with each update that some recurring bugs for years are finally fixed. I am not expecting any new functions at all.

Ann, like nearly everyone here, is a user!

 

She's offering help of her own time, as I and so many others do on this user-to-user peer support forum.

 

If you want to post directly to the engineers, and please do! ... go to their engineering/management input portal, the UserVoice site.

 

Every post there is read & logged into their system by at least one engineer, and all posts are collated and sent to the upper managers who determine budgets & such.

 

The vast majority of users are not having the issue you are having. It's working perfectly here, which of course doesn't help you whatever.

 

But the engineers need to know on exactly which gear, OS, and media/workflows it is gritching. So give them detailed posts on what your gear, media, and workflow are and where it's screwed up.

Dear Ann, Dear Neil,

I'm sorry for the confusion but the mention "Adobe Community Professionnal" in your description misled me. I thought I finally had someone from Adobe who was listening to my problems... Too bad.

In that case don't take it personally and thank you for taking time to answer even if it was useless for me and other users on this thread.

I've already voted for many posts relating this "bug" and obviously I'm not the only one :

In addition to all the bugs you mentionned, we can't even SAVE properly our projects. Since when hitting ctrl+S has become a tricky manipulation where you have to "save as" everytime you just try to keep your work safe? You tell me. This is just unacceptable to notice that even the most basic functions don't work. Please try to fix this real quick because working with Premier has become a nightmare lately.

When I try to import the old project into the new one, guess what ? It crashes...

Seriously ????

Even after reseting the prefs and cash files, it crashes. I cannot move a panel neither without making the soft crash...

Even simply add some clips in a bin makes the soft crash. 

Great job with your updates, really...
