Adobe Update on Premiere Pro issues with M2 Ultra Studio and Multiple Monitors

So I have posted about his one in the past because it really affects me. I hate having the monitors as separate spaces as it messed up just how I use the computer. Now it has been better with newer versions of Premiere and Mac, but is still there, and I do a lot of restarting Premiere to clear it up. Luckily Adobe Employee Kyle Plumadore has an update: Hi all - another update: Apple has identified the source of the bug. I anticipate that it will be fixed in a future MacOS update.  My understanding is that it's a complex bug to fix, so it may take additional time to get fixed in the OS. To facilitate a quicker improvement for users, Apple has also provided us with an application side code change which will workaround the bug. This change is available for testing now in the latest Premiere Pro Beta (24.2.0.34) dated 2023-12-01.  I've verified it myself but if anyone else experiencing this bug wants to validate that this Beta version (or newer) also solves the problem on their end, that would be helpful. If we don't find any negative side effects as a result of this workaround, it will be available in a future non-Beta version of Premiere Pro as well. As I mentioned above, I also expect an eventual MacOS update to resolve this issue. This will be useful for those users who do not wish to update their versions of Premiere Pro. I will provide another update when I have concrete Premiere Pro (non-beta), or MacOS version numbers which resolve the poor playback when "Displays have separate Spaces" is disabled.

CUT/DAILY #374 – After Effects for Everyone

After Effects is actually one of the most valuable creative programs to learn as an editor. CUT DAILY #374 - After Effects for Everyone It is so true, every editor should know After Effects. Honestly I mostly don’t even consider doing any graphics in my NLE and just jump into after effects, but I have also been using it for well over 20 years now, and am always learning something new. So spend sone time and learn something new.

Issues with Premiere Pro on M2 Ultra Studio and it has to do with Mac Spaces

Having a new M2 Ultra Studio, and always using 2 monitors to edit, makes this an issue close to my heart. Especially because to fix it, you must set you mac to Display have separate Spaces, which means you can't have windows party between 2 windows and you are forced to have a dock that switches between the 2 windows (seemingly at random) and menus confusingly on both windows. The current workaround is posted on Adobe Community from a question by Igal Hect. From Kyle Plumadore an Adobe Employee. I have a quick update for anyone experiencing poor playback performance on M2 Mac Studio Multi-display setups. We've identified an issue where disabling the MacOS system setting "Displays have separate Spaces" under "Desktop & Dock" degrades playback performance. By default this setting is enabled. We're still working on an official resolution but in the meantime you can try re-enabling that setting as a workaround (requires system reboot to take effect) I have a quick update for anyone experiencing poor playback performance on M2 Mac Studio Multi-display setups.

Adobe has updated After Effects to October 2023 (Version 24.0)

Next-Gen Roto Brush, I have been looking forward to, the 3rd generation, and hopefully the best and most powerful version to date. OpenColorIO Workflow enhancements is welcome as this is an industry standard and After Effects has always lacked color options. Text Scripting Support should be an interesting addition to make more powerful text animations. And Currently in the Beta True 3D Workspace should be pretty awesome, since Adobe does have it's own 3D software (just wish it was part of the same subscription).
