| CFA 3.3 |
Main limitations in Adobe CC 2024 versions:
Do not use versions 24.6 and 24.6.1 (latest at the point of writing). Import to the bin is not working due to a change in Adobe Premiere Pro API behaviour, we are investigating if this is a lasting change that will require an update to Curator for Adobe or a bug Adobe will fix.
Use Photoshop 24.4.1 or newer. Photoshop 24.3 has a bug in Save which affects the ability to Open and Save projects.
Do not use ranges 24.1 and 24.2 of updates, these versions fail to transcode a range of media, including but not limited to, Adobe's acknowledged problem with transcoding media imported programmatically as from Curator for Adobe.
