That’s a terrible analogy because you’re describing bugs and not usage patterns.
• UI freezes for a second or two when you switch to Fusion.
- that’s weird
• If you adjust speed in a Fusion node, timeline clip remains the same length, so if you slow it down 2x you can only see the first half. To say Fusion in general is half-baked is to be very, very generous.
- Again never had this issue
• Export location gets reset every launch.
- It remembers my last export settings per project
• Can’t copy-paste a node or its settings, in case you want to test between two different configurations.
- I have copy pasted many fusion and color nodes without issues
Have you reported these issues to Black Magic?
I have used a lot of editing software like old school Final Cut Pro, premiere, Sony Vegas (yuck!) and even movie maker. Resolve in my opinion has the least amount of friction to use. What do you use to edit?
What I do now can be done using a mix of free software (ffmpeg, etc.) and if I were to go pro and have less time for tinkering then it’d be FCP for me.
