I installed 8.6.5 at Christmas and last week installed an uncertified nvidia driver 376.84 to fix a Premier Pro CC2017 problem. On the face of it Avid was working fine but yesterday I was colour correcting - I had a bunch of clips with the same grade so I dragged the CC FX icon from the CC window into the bin and then dragged that setting to each clip I wanted to grade. The first time I have used this technique since installing. The wierd thing was the icon/frame in the bin looked like the normal plugin but instead of saying "color correction" below it, it had the name of the clip I was working on when I dragged the icon?? Further, any clip I applied that icon to flashed with frames of that original clip?? I restarted Avid, repeated and this time the icon dragged correctly and worked as expected? Try again and it failed again?
I am going to roll back the GFX driver which may or may not fix this - but am curious, has anyone else seen this behavior? Is this linked to the flash frames in the CC people are experiencing in 8.7?
