I just find the whole thing bizarre. This can’t be the expected behavior. Wasn’t v11 released with great fanfare as a potential editing platform?
Like I said, it actually doesn’t bother me that much since I spend so little time in the edit page, but Its just hard for me to imagine the developers thinking it was a good idea to work on stuff like asymmetric trim modes when basic playback wasn’t working?
I’m talking about just playing back a simple ProresHQ clip with no grade whatsoever… For me the GUI is weirdly stuttery. SDI is fine. Seems odd that such a fundamental thing as basic playback would be overlooked while rafts of other features were piled on.
I’m going to give BMD the benefit of the doubt and assume that there are some systems which don’t exhibit this strange edit window behavior.
I get concerned when I see stuff like this where new features are added before basic functionality is complete.
Hopefully v12 will be part of the solution to this trend rather than continuing down the same path… fingers crossed.
