DNG Files from Denoise AI 3.7.2 Not working with Sharpen AI 4.1.0

I have been working around the DNG image size bugs for a long time. It is widely reported in the forums and has been since at least 2019. I ran a really simple test. Open a ARW file in denoise, denoise and save as a DNG file. Open in it Sharpen, and my 4000x6000 is now reported as 171 x 256, even though the files size is 140 MB. No other software was used between the file processing. The bug is in Denoise and should be easy to track down. I think the Denoise code is used in PhotoAI. If it is, that would explain the reported DNG troubles.

Any thoughts out there?

Same here and also the DNGs are not supported by most editors like Affinity Photo 2 or DXO PL 6. Is this being addressed?
