Adobe Encore Buggy? at DVinfo.net

I am far from an expert, but is it me or is Adobe Encore DVD 1.0 very twitchy, picky and buggy! I change Menu properties and it seems sometimes to not pick them up unless I save exit and relaunch. It crashes on building a folder complaining about streams not beining intialized, yet it Previews fine. If I duplicate a button, even though I change the linked video it still links to the original's video unless I delete and recreate the button. I've heard people complain about Adobe software being buggy in the past, but never really have had any problems. I used Vegas and DVD Workshop all the time with no problmes, I was trying to use Pemier Pro with Encore more and maybe make the switch, not going to happen with Encore any time soon. A very convoluted program,

I've heard that Encore is abundantly buggy thus the reason I have strayed away from it.
It's ashame too because I was so excited to hear that Adobe was designing a DVD authoring program that was tightly integrated with Photoshop. Bugginess was the reason I left Premiere for Vegas 4.0, and it was the best decision I have made yet.
I'll have to wait for a 1.2 or some other upgrade to patch the problems in Encore before I even glance at it. Jeers for Adobe.

It's a shame, but my guess would have to be their MAC roots and dual porting many applicaitons. Probably forces them to useo ther than the best coding techniques for either platform. Too bad as I was wanting to do more in the new Premiere and Encore.
