MXF Playback Issues

Hi - we are having issues on our new M1 Max MacBooks when dealing with mxf footage shot on our FX6, but only when shot in XAVC L - clips shot in XAVC I have no such issues. Its occurring on both our M1 Max's and also our M1 iMac. When you scrub through the footage, its like the exposure jumps up and down. It does the same when you look to grade the clips, which makes is really tricky. We shoot the majority in XAVC I, but for long events we need XAVC L. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

If you open that specific library with the M1 exposure issues on a non-M1 Mac, is the exposure issue gone? Are all 3rd party plugins confirmed to be compatible and up-to-date on the M1 machines?

Sounds like something is in a tangle extrapolating the Long GOP codec.

Try here for ideas:

Many thanks - I'll have a look. Odd thing is, this never happened and still does not with any of our pre M1 Macs.
