OK, I guess I didn't expect much more than that but I'll make a couple points here:
1. I do not have a basic consumer level PC, in fact, my PC is a pretty high end PC with i7-5820K CPU that's over clocked as well as a 980 Ti GPU that is also over clocked -- definitely not a run of the mill PC.
2. The flickering effect was noted on my other DJI drone, the Inspire 1 Pro, and is not present in the video of any other video camera I own -- camera including: Sony HDR-CX500, Panasoni GH2 and G85, Nikon D800E and D7200. So, if this is a PP issue it's pretty amazing that it only effect the DJI cameras.
3. The washing effect IS apparently a PP artifact and I was later able to identify how and when this washing effect happens. When replaying the video within PP at less than "full" resolution I see this effect, but when "full" resolution is selected I do not see the effect. I'm not sure what the cause for that is but this one might well be a PP issue.
So, I'm not sure where we go from here but it looks like DJI has determined the problem is not at there end.
