For a long time now, this program has been having this problem that it doesn't recognize 4K material, you always have to restart FC and the new 11.1 version is even worse in this regard, the Sony pxw-z150 camera doesn't read 4K, there's only sound and a black picture. Is it some kind of problem with the codecs or something, I don't know, but this kind of problem just drives me crazy and I'm thinking of switching to a competitor's software

After MacOS update, it can’t be opened. Keeps Craching and therefore not usable.
Critical Bug: Final Cut Pro Freezes After Using the Blade Tool
Elustiil
I would like to report a serious issue with the latest version of Final Cut Pro that is making the application almost impossible to use for professional editing.The problem occurs almost every time I use the Blade tool (cutting a clip). After making a cut, Final Cut Pro becomes unresponsive: playback no longer works, the Viewer turns completely black, and I cannot continue editing.The only way to recover is to completely restart Final Cut Pro. Unfortunately, this happens repeatedly throughout the day. During a normal editing session, I may have to restart the application dozens or even hundreds of times, which makes professional work extremely frustrating and severely impacts productivity.This issue appeared after updating to the latest version, and it is now preventing me from working efficiently. As a professional video editor, I rely on Final Cut Pro every day, and this level of instability is unacceptable.I kindly ask your engineering team to investigate this issue as a high priority and release a fix as soon as possible. At the moment, the application is not reliable enough for professional use.Thank you for your attention. I hope this issue can be resolved quickly.System information:- Mac Studio (Apple M1)- macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 (25F84)- Final Cut Pro 12.3
