Your wife is likely working in a color-managed environment (or should be, as a photographer) That said, you are absolutely correct that the app coding is fucking trash. And those people never want to hear the right answers to their problem they'd rather jump through pointless hoops that don't get to the root cause.) (Second in line to the software not working the way people imagine they want it to is people who don't understand how to work in a color managed environment, who don't understand the effect of paper sizings, coatings, and ink interactions, people who don't have printers who can print accurately, etc.
I almost never have issues with my cutter, but I am very, very familiar with the Studio app, and I understand the ins and outs of how Studio thinks about certain things. The one glaring exception I can think of to that is with the Cameo 4 cutters just being plain trash at precision in cutting, and it makes me glad I still have a Cameo 3.
I'm fairly involved in a few different Silhouette-specific social media / groups and "it doesn't work" nearly *always* comes down to the user not being familiar with the software, or expecting it to behave in a way different from how it actually does. Could be an issue with program itself, but either way it's the first time I've noticed any performance issues. With ff-Works active, scrubbing through the dock is incredibly laggy, but switching to something else restores responsiveness again. Even with that, a batch of 600 clips is showing as using 60GB of RAM in activity viewer. Unfortunately, this ended up with black 'blinks' in between every clip in the final video, so now I'm working my way through merging clips with ffmpeg/ff-Works. My first attempt was with iMovie which actually sort of worked after getting everything added to a project and exported as a single video (took ages to export, but ran overnight while gobbling up about 50GB of RAM on my 32GB system). I recorded a bit of xmas morning with a ubiquiti camera I had kicking around but clearly did something stupid because several hours of footage were split across just under 8,000 individual video clips. I found something that really bogged down my Studio (that my previous Mac Pro failed at entirely).
