Default Video Engine Problems in PT 2021.6

Video is STILL broken for me on my 2020 Mac Pro running Big Sur. I just mixed something yesterday in my Catalina partition (which I had to make because 2021.03.1 was ALSO broken running Big Sur), and I'm still having the same video issues in Big Sur. I've trashed my prefs, etc. and Pro Tools 2021.6 essentially runs identically to the previous version: when I hit play, I get a beachball for about thirty seconds before the video/audio starts playing, and once it starts playing, the video engine drops nearly every frame (the audio plays fine). It's completely unusable.

Really at the end of my rope here. Any suggestions?

Specs: 2020 Mac Pro, macOS 11.4, 32 GBs of RAM, session is running from an SSD, audio interface is a Lynx Aurora(n). I would have a hard time believing that my hardware is the problem, especially considering that the session works just fine in Catalina.

What is your video codec? (And if you say h264, then more specifics are needed since Long GOP h264 isn't supported)
