- Inconsistencies when analyzing a video for stabilization with the Static setting selected have been resolved.

- Render template Frame Rate settings properly use a period or comma based on the language the application has been installed in.
- The Project Media window is no longer limited to showing just 100 thumbnails.
- Project Media thumbnails do not redraw when there are more than 49 shown and you move the mouse over them.
- Improved thumbnail reading in the Project Media window avoids crashing.
- Variable frame rate media plays back with properly synchronized audio.
- Fixed issue where improper thumbnail can appear for generated media in the Project Media window.
- Fixed issue where some MP4 files crashed the application when loaded into VEGAS.

- Issue when envelopes move in the wrong direction when using the CTRL key while dragging is fixed.

Notes:
- Checkerboard artifacts may be visible in HDR external preview when preview quality is set to "Best" with certain kinds of footage; please switch to "Good" quality in such scenarios; this does not affect the actual rendered output.
- Very bright yellows can blow out with the default ACES Rec.2020/1000 nits IDT; please use Levels FX to adjust the footage to work around that.
