Happened to try V20 again today after having crash chaos last time I had a go upgrading from v19 636. Switched off HEVC legacy, and installed the new build 214 with no issues. No crashes but playback on the timeline is odd. 4k h265 8bit files from a drone play back smoothly with no proxies, which is amazing. BUT 4k 10bit h265 files 4:2:0 from an a7siii only play with jerks with or without proxies - unuseable. I think there may be an easy fix for that once the experts get to grips with this. I have reinstalled latest AMD driver. Tried turning HEVC legacy back on and it won't even load the project without crashing. AVC legacy on and off makes no difference.

Really liking the new build so far.

One comment - been playing with the preview zoom (hurrah!), and it seems to me we need a recenter button (although I may simply be missing it somewhere in the interface); unchecking 'Enable Preview Scaling' switches back to 100% as expected, but leaves it offset

Not really, the Dji 8bit files are the simplest and easiest to playback file format using the GPU decoder even at 60fps, it's always been that way for me, but maybe not for your GPU, we have the same CPU, I have Nvidia30 series Gpu

BUT 4k 10bit h265 files 4:2:0 from an a7siii only play with jerks with or without proxies - unuseable.

It's probably not using your GPU decoder, which is the same as previous releases

Tried turning HEVC legacy back on and it won't even load the project without crashing

That's a step in the wrong direction, HEVC LEGACY used to force the Gpu decoder (without Gpu decoding) so the performance for the a7siii 420 10bit files was the same no matter if you ticked legacy or not, but now it crashes (for you)

After a bit of experimentation, double click the mouse wheel on the preview window and the zoom reverts to its default position. Brilliant.

So it does! That's great (but not obviously discoverable)

anyone know where to downloadable link can be found for Vegas Update, I already got the studio drivers. Hopefully some improvement. ran great with 2080Ti but have a 3090TI and it does not run as well.
