Hi Tim.

I am experiencing these same issues with the ‘hard crash’ in after effects when previewing.

I am using the new updated software CC 2017 (like everyone else) with a MAC Pro (Trashcan) 10.11.16 OS X and I have a black magic audio video out.

While migrating old projects into 2017 I started to experience the crash. I was able to pinpoint that it is an error with the audio (like almost everyone else – I am assuming).

Projects without audio, cache and render fine. Projects with audio just crash immediately.

After changing my audio preferences to display audio (instead of my black magic design, or MOTU audio interface) I am able to preview without the crash, but the end result is less than ideal. The audio playback is not ‘correct’ the errors vary from: distortion, pitch, speed, cutting out, etc… They previews also lag and sometimes get stuck.

Where is adobe with this?

Timeline?

This is kind of a huge bummer.
