PD10 not as stable as I might have hoped

I've been using it a few weeks, and I get the following:
1. Locks up more than PD9 did
2. For some reason it seems to add a new video/audio clip all on its own. Pretty repeatable. I add a title, then a color board (to a video only clip). Bang! PD10 adds a new video/audio clip pair.
3. When I Produce to YouTube, there seems to be an arbitrary length constraint on the Title name. This was not the case in PD9
4. A (new) weird anomaly tonight: I finished all my editing, then attempted to add my standard Credits title. I inserted it into the Title track, click Modify. PD10 never comes back. Just Windows ding if I try to click a menu or button or whatever. Had to kill it with TaskManager. This happened everytime I tried. I used a new title, different title, title into a regular video track, whatever. ALWAYS quit responding. Finally just built a JPG with credits and added that to video.
5. Last week, the 3 separate video clips I was incorporating into my video: EVERY ONE OF THEM showed displaced audio from the video. Consistent displacement across the clips. These are music vids, so synching audio/video is pretty critical. Had to do some fine tuning, manually matching a drum hit to a the drummer playing, guitar strum to the sound.

Anybody else having stability issues? Or these issues? As a s/w developer myself, I would never be surprised for a new release to be followed by a flurry of patches and fixes (deadlines being what they are, bugs get shipped). I have the latest I know of (10.0.0.1012). More fixes available? Chuck Puckett

Yes I must say PD10 is not as stable as PD9 for me either. Nothing specific just random crashes. My youtube channel====> http://www.youtube.com/user/relate2?feature=mhsn

May sound weird, but:
Give it a chance!
The first release of PD9 was a catastrophy itself!
It needed several patches and updates for PD9 to become as stable as it now is.
I'm sure, PD10 will take these steps, too.

Oh, I'm giving it a chance. Just sort of expecting some fairly quick turn around from the Cyberlink folks. Chuck Puckett

Interesting response from various users since in my case PD10 has been MUCH more stable than PD9 using AVCHD clips. I'm finding it difficult to crash it and have been able to only in one specific case when cropping 4:3 video to 16:9. The idiosyncrasies of software and hardware ! Win 10, i7
