Fixed issues

Known issues:

The previous NVIDIA game ready driver (461.09) is conflicting with Premiere Pro 14.8 and Windows PCs with NVIDIA GPUs.

• Solution 1: Install the Studio driver. download it here.
• Solution 2: Install the latest Game Ready driver, 461.40 is now available and is working with Premiere Pro 14.8. Download it here.

Please update to either driver, and you'll be clear of the issue. The Studio driver is the preferred one for Premiere Pro users, and provides the better user experience, but either one will work.

Still having PROres Seq issues

Anyone having issues like I do?  New install of Pr 14.8, NVIDIA Studio Driver installed

Sony A7siii Prores HQ/LT and also RAW files fight in sequence setting, no matter the original config. 

Any media brought in to Sequence (no matter the setting) asks if I want to change the setting to match media. 

If i do, Pr crashed.

It works if I say no and keep the original files setting, but then the aspect is off and I need to zoom in to fit the framing.

Anyone else have this, and what am I doing wrong? 

Thanks!
