Adobe Premiere Bug Is Permanently Damaging MacBook Pro Speakers

Sometimes we come across software bugs that can cause the software to crash, cause the operating system to reboot, but it isn’t very often that we run into software bugs that can cause permanent and physical damage to a computer’s hardware components. Unfortunately for some MacBook Pro users, that’s what happened to them.

In a series of posts made on the Adobe Premiere CC forum (via 9to5Mac), it seems that a bug in the software is causing permanent damage to MacBook Pro speakers by blowing them out. One user writes, “I have a new 2 month old 15″ MBP. I Was working on a project, macbook volume was about on half, when suddenly an audio bug occurred with really loud screatching noise and not letting me pause it. After it stopped, the speakers were really quiet, and after the next restart they’re clearly blown.”

This is echoed by other users who are also reporting that bug caused their laptops to emit this loud screeching distorted sound, which seems to have blown out the speakers and caused permanent damage to them. According to one Adobe rep, they suggested that users should ensure their microphones are off when using tools like audio enhancement. This seems to hint that the cause for the loud noise could be due to a feedback loop.

It is unclear as to what Adobe plans to do about this and whether or not they will be financially compensating users to get their laptop speakers fixed.

Disney+ Will Feature Non-Disney Content At Launch

Disney’s upcoming streaming service Disney+ is expected to play home to exclusive Disney content, which is probably going to be one of its selling points. However it seems that at launch, Disney could be including some non-Disney content which could be used to help populate the company’s catalogue for now.

This was confirmed by Disney’s CEO Bob Iger during the company’s earnings call where it was revealed that they had already licensed a CBS show for the upcoming service. However it is unclear if this could be a permanent thing or if like we said, will only be used to help fill the gaps while Disney works on populating its catalogue with their own show.

According to Iger, he stated that for the long-term the company will be focusing on its internally-sourced programming. So far not much is known about how Disney+ will operate. We know that it will play home to Disney shows, shows from Marvel and Star Wars, and that’s about it. There is no word on pricing or when it will launch, and its availability upon launch.

So far Disney’s plan to launch their own streaming service has affected other companies such as Netflix who will no longer receive Disney movies for its catalogue. It has also resulted in Netflix cancelling a bunch of its own original Marvel shows.
