Apple M1 Bad Performance updating file names and Metadata on SMB share
Bridge 2021 11.0.0.83
Hi, first of all, in general I love Bridge, providing all I need for Photo Management!
I observed the following performance issues when updating my photos stored on a NAS (SMB access).
Batch or Mass updates of Filenames or Metadata (Keywords) is extremely slow (even for SMB access).
I am using Bridge on my Apple Silicon M1 MacBook Pro.
When Batch renaming 150 files it took >15min before I 'killed' Bridge manually. It was using 1 core at 100% and took ages to complete the update. It might be related to updating the Cache DB, because the…2 votes -

External Hard Disk not ejecting
After Bridge has been using an External Hard Disk in Mac OS 11.1 (Big Sur), the Disk will not eject because the system still claims it is being used by Adobe Bridge. Even if you switch to another drive in Bridge or try ejecting disk in Bridge. You must completely Quit Bridge before any external hard disk you have been using can be ejected.

Thumbnails are scrambled
Just updated to Big Sur; using Bridge 10.0.0.124. My thumbnails are scrambled, even when I select them. The image remains intact, and is visible when the thumbnail is selected, but the thumbnail appears and disappears on its own. I get colored lines that change, but no thumbnails. Tried clearing cache without success. See attached screenshot.

Bridge Is Terrible When Editing Metadata On PSD
Bridge has always been bad when entering meta on PSDs, but lately it is horrific.
I have a folder of PSD files. I select them all and "FILE INFO" to add a base set of meta. I walk away and do something else for a while and come back, and they are fine.
Now, I grab a group of them, and add to the keywords and maybe change the title using the Metadata tab. Then I grab another bunch and do the same thing. It -should- queue up the changes and get them all done, however slowly it is taking.…

Bridge 2021 Export without including original metadata
I am not sure if what I describe is a bug or something else.
I created a Custom Export template in which I unchecked the "Include Original Metadata" box. Images are exported in JPEG format.
When I use this template, some images have all metadata stripped as I would expect but some do not , their Camera Data (Exif) is not stripped while other metadata is. I have tested this starting with a variety of image formats, JPEG, TIFF, DNG. I am unable to discern any pattern which identifies problematic images.2 votes -
Bridge 2021 doesn’t open or crashes on startup on iMac.
Bridge 2021 doesn’t open or takes a very long time to open on iMac. If it opens at all, Bridge freezes or crashes completely as soon as any photo is selected. Occasionally it will continue, but then freezes on the second photo.

HEVC Video Crashes Adobe Bridge 2021
Video files create on iPhone - HEVC format - cause Bridge 2021 to hang when that file is selected, or among a group of files selected. dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe may be part of the culprit in that trying to move a HEVC file after Bridge 2021 hangs results in a 'file busy' response from Windows. Killing the dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe process frees up the file(s). Bridge 2020 does not have this issue. This happens on multiple machines and I suspect should be easy to repeat.

Keywords can not be written to previewed Audio Files
Once an audio file, .WAV in this case, has been previewed, it can not be moved or overwritten to change the name or add metadata.
I have to close (End task in Task Manager) dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe to be able to do it.
Of course, after that no preview is possible, I have to close and reopen Bridge.
Thanks in advance for any help

File name corruption
I have a number of files with a "?" as a placeholder until I determine the genus and species of my photo's subject. The latin name is enclosed in parenthesis, so the filename temporarily includes the character string "(?)". When I drag files from Bridge's window to another folder inside Bridge or select "Move to" from the pop-up after right-clicking on the file's thumbnail, the filenames at the destination are truncated at the left parentheses. "Filename (?).psd" becomes "Filename (" with no extension. If there are files with the same name but different extensions, such as "Filename (?).jpg", Bridge wants…

Date of Change not correct
The date of Change in the Metadata panel of Bridge 2021 (Mac OS 10.14.6) is not correct (yesterday, but it was 2 years ago...). The file info shows the correct date (see screenshot). I worked with this folder at this timestamp, but not with all files. So maybe this is the date, where the cache file was created (?).

Changing Meta Doesn't Always Queue Up
I am keywording .PSD stock photo series in one folder. I will select a group, modify the keywords, select another group, do the same, wait for a minute while it hangs and catches up, select another group and so on. More often than not, Bridge is losing my change to the keywords or info and I have to go back in an re-do the changes. And when I'm "done", I always have to check every file to make sure they are all now have applicable meta. And Bridge takes about a minute to change the meta on each PSD so…

Custom workspace does not save
In BRIDGE v10.1.1.166, Win10 Pro, saved several custom workspaces. When clicking on any one of them, the workspace does not change or changes inappropriately. When it changes, only some of the characteristics of the desired workspace are displayed. NOTE: video drivers are current.

Sub Folders no longer visible as a drop downs under master file
Just made the jump to Catalina.
I use Bridge a LOT to sort images. One feature appears buggy.
Sub folders used to be indicated with a little ">" on the left side of the master folder. Which was awesome b/c I could click on the ">" and the sub folder(s) would drop DIRECTLY below the master folder.
In the attached images, the folders directly below "399 Episodic" ALL have subfolders in them, yet no ">" is next to the master folder. Interestingly, that is also the case with the "400 Episodic" master folder. ALL the sub folders have sub folders…2 votes
