I have not had a AMD GPU recently, but I can tell you from experience with the EVGA RTX 2080, with 8 GB RAM that I presently use, 8 GB of RAM is not enough for smooth playback of 4K log footage in some situations. I often get the GPU memory is full message. No matter what brand of GPU the problem exists. My next GPU will have at least 24 GB of RAM.

I use Ease In and Out to obtain smooth transitions.

That is different. Not a Resolve problem. I have found VLC doesn’t offer much help in determining the usefulness of a video file. Media Player Classic, the last version they made, is much better. But, none of these can fix your problem.
I would try looking at one of the recovered clips with MediaInfo and/or ffprobe to see if you can find out what is wrong with the file. They can often be repaired with ffmpeg, but that is not something I can talk you through.
There are others on this forum much more qualified to help. Hopefully, you will get more help as others see your question.

What did you recover?
If you recovered a Timeline, that Timeline may still be corrupted.
This happens. In the same project, create an new empty Timeline. Go to the Timeline you recovered. Lasso all of the clips and copy them to the clipboard. Then go to the newly created Timeline and paste them. I have done this many time to successfully recover files.

A 250 GB HD is usually not large enough to handle the cache necessary for smooth operation. I had to install a 1 TB SSD just to use for cache, and then I need to delete unused cache frequently.
There are many things, often associated with project setup, that can cause crashes, but when the cache fills the hard drive mine crashes every time.

The times I have had weird things like that happen I found the Timeline had become corrupted or the computer needed to be shut down and everything restarted.

I have never had any problems with Resolve Sub Titles. They have always worked well and as expected.
Are you sure you have actually deleted all text?
Does it have the same problem in another Timeline?

I have a license and a Dongle. The Dongle still works, in fact you can still buy the Dongle.

I forgot to mention that I also have a LG 32UK550 that I use for my security system. If you can find them, they are all available in multiple screen sizes.
They can all be calibrated. I use a Datacolor SpyderX Elite.
When I said neither is very good for grading, I should have said that I output most of what I do in HDR10. What you see on the $400 to $600 monitors is not what you get after rendering. What I see on the OLED TV when used as a monitor is exactly what I get after rendering.
However, if you are only doing SDR grading, these monitors may work OK for you.

The Dell you cite appears to have good specs. Maybe someone that has one will chime in here.
I have a LG 32UL950 and a LG 32UD59. Neither are any good for quality grading, but they are good enough as monitors on my work station. What I use for grading is a LG OLED55CXPUA 4K TV.
