Thanks, Ralph.  Much appreciated.

I'm out of ideas as to why this is on, but it's on, and IMHO should be investigated as a bug even if there's no certain way to reproduce.

Whenever MC won't close, it displays a message that it is collecting information to send to Avid.  So theoretically, Avid should already have lots of info on the issue from all of us.

I have done this several times as well.

Is it send to Avid or to MS? I do not remember it well

The only thing I could think of is the black magic video driver. But since other people seem to be having the same issue, I'm not sure.

if that's the case installing the latest BM driver release did not fix things up.

Yes, not nice in front of a client, and yes, thank You Ralph.

2018.12 closes fine here on AVC-Intra 100 every time.

What codec are you using?

DNxHD 120 25p the current project, it was DNxHR high quality 25p the previous one. This hiccup has been going on for ages, on all sorts of projects.

Are You on a BM I/O George?

Three monitor setup (3rd one is a FHD LG TV).

2 1680x1050 HP monitors plus the TV for FS.

All on my P2000.

No other hardware.

I am editing all of my new projects on AVC-Intra 100

(excellent codec for high quality smaller file size and 422 10 bit)

and I thought maybe this has something to do with the

fact that MC closes normally. 

Software only seems unaffected George, but thank You for Tour time.

This is not the case Luca.

I have had myself this is issue a lot of times.

2018.12 not from the time I am using AVC-Intra

for the time being.

We're working on a dozen different projects at the moment varying from XdcamHD50i to Dnx185x and Xavc intra.
Both 24fps and 25fps, Interlaced and progressive.

There doens't seem to be a constant, except for the Blackmagic I/O.

My software only system is not affected, FWIW.

Then the only difference is that I am on 2018.12.

The problem only started to occur when I installed Pro Tools First and Sibellius First, so I had the brilliant idea to uninstall both and the problem with Avid Media Composer 2018.12 stopped. Yes. Don't know if that helps anyone of you....

Any new information? We are still experiencing the same issue...

Can you email me your system ID and MyAvid email address and the link to this thread please.

I'm not using the blackmagic driver - or anything blackmagic - and I have the hang up on closes occasionally.
