Premiere 7.1 Media Pending Error

I'm editing some Sony F55 RAW footage but Premiere Pro keeps showing me Media Pending error.
I've already edited a project with F55 files and didn't had a single issue.
My system is an iMac with i7, 32GB ram, external Promise Pegasus R6 (RAID5) with footage and cache files on it.
Tried to move the cache to the internal SSD but nothing changed.
Is that a Premiere Pro bug?
Thanks

Premiere CC 2014 'Media Pending' & constant hanging/crashing

I have a Macbook Pro retina, using Canon 5D mk3 footage.
I am working on a few projects and keep experiencing a problem where the program monitor will just 'hang' on a certain frame during playback, other times (less often) will display 'media pending'. In either case, once that happens, there is no going back. I can still save the project, close and open the program monitor, playback works for audio .. but no playback of video. Sometimes it crashes completely.
Most of the time I have to save and then quit, and then load up Premiere again. Although it sometimes hangs after about 1 minute of use. I think I have restarted about 20 times in the last 2 hours - its ridiculous.
- I have tried emptying cache / media cache etc
- I have tried copying the sequence and pasting into a totally new project only to find the same problems come up eventually
- This is a new install of premiere on a new install of Yosemite (no preferences applied yet)
- It seems worse when there are multiple video tracks
- Can I get a refund for this month of CC? My videos have taken twice as long as they should have because of the bugs in this program.
- I'm serious

You're not the only one having these issues. There are couple of threads under adobe forums regarding this issue. Couple of users solved their problem by unchecking the labels regarding XMP under preferences-media.
I'm on latest mountain lion and also deleted the cache manually under the common folders. Have multiple layers and haven't had issues prior using PR CC 2014 on the same project.
Same problem as yours, no video only audio playback, unresponsive behaviour and eventually a crash on quit which I have to force quit.

Registry fix for transcoding/importing fix Causes Media Pending Error

There is a fix for the never ending importing problem in Encore CS3 mentioned in the FAQ section, but it creates another problem: It prevents motion menu templates from loading. I waited an hour for a menu template to load and finally cancelled it and saw that the menu buttons were there, but the background video was "Media Pending".
Also, the registry fix causes all HDV projects in Premiere Pro CS3 to lose their video to "Media Pending" screens.
This is not a useable fix.
Is there a better solution that doesn't break all the .m2v importing?

The .m2v importing isn't broken. The files have to be re-indexed, that is all.
There are a lot of video files to be indexed in the Encore Library.

Premiere renders yellow "media pending" frames

Hi,
this is surely a huge bug.
I opends a project with many connected After Effects compositions and started to export the sequence.
I got a sequences with yellow "media pending" frames in it. WTF?!?!
Why does premiere not stop rendering there an load the media first? Or wait until its loaded.
I took more than 10 hours to render!
Thomas

Dag:
1. Did you capture the footage prior to updating to 3.2?
2. Can you reproduce the problem in a new test project?
Cheers

Unable to open premiere cs6 projects - "media pending"

Lately when working on projects, it comes to a point where I'll open the project file and nothing will load in the program. All I see is no sequence, and no imported files, just a message that says "media pending". I have done no renaming of files. One day it will work and the next it will never work again. PLEASE help...

Hi,
Can you click on Sequence on the top and select the option of Delete Rendered Files.
Check if this fixes the issue or not.
Thank You
Arjun

Adobe Media Encoder 4.0.0.374 - Media Offline Error when encoding

My problem is a little urgent, so, if possible, i want a fast answer.
I edited my video in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. When it was done, i tryed to export it, in File > Export > Media (Ps. In my program, i don't have File > Export > Movie). I set my video export settings, and then accepted. The Adobe Media Encoder 4.0.0.374 window appeared, with my project in the queue list. Then, i pressed in "Encode". First, the program is slower than normally to load the file, but i think it can be that my video is too long. After load, it starts to encode. After a time, in the preview box, appear the "Media Offline" ( and never is the same footage ) image, the same of Premiere Pro CS4. After a little, a "Encoding unsucceful. Unknown Error" appears, and the encoding stops. I don't know if is a Premiere Pro or Media Encoder error, so i posted here.
Considerations:
Before i encode, i ever verify (and fix if necessary) if all videos of the project is linked, but ever time i reopen the project, some footages ( never the same ) are unlinked, and i have to link again.
I tryed to encode various differents formats, like AVI, WMV or F4V, but in every time i get the error. I tryed even to export first the audio, then the video, separated, to link after, but only the audio is succeful exported.
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate, with a 4gb RAM, 1TB HD and Pentium Dual-Core 3Ghz.
I just got to encode with succes some times before. This is the first time it occurs.
I used the program (Premiere Pro) normally, some days ago, until 02/11. Since 03/11, it slowed. I just disabled all visual effects, disfragmented my disk, cleaned, and set the "Use more energy to more process" settings, but my program is still slow.
If needed more considerations, ask to me.
I just searched for similar problem, but dont got any result.
Sorry if my english is bad, i am Braziliam.

I have a similar problem. When I attempt to encode a list of clips, Media Encoder sometimes fails with a media offline warning. The media is just fine, nothing actually off line nor corrupted. If I elect to encode directly from Premiere Pro, the compilation proceeds normally. That's not practical when I have a list of clips and other things to do besides watch the creeping status bar.
My temporary fix was to uncheck the "import sequences natively" option. It's a little slower using the dynamic link, but it works, and my hair can start growing again.
This glitch appeared only with the latest update via Creative Cloud.

Conforming and Indexing Errors, Media Pending, Audio won't play in timeline

I'm working on a desktop PC which is running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and Adobe Premiere Pro (version CS5.5). It's currently utilizing a second gen. 3.4Ghz i7 2600 processor, 16GB of 1600Mhz RAM, 64GB solid-state drive and a ASUS P8Z68-V Intel Z68 Motherboard with onboard audio (Realtek ALC892 chipset) and onboard video. My problem is this:
The conforming and indexing of all of my imported media never seems to finish regardless of how many times I reopen the project file and wait for it. On the lower right-hand portion of the screen, next to the conforming/indexing progress bar, is a little red "X". When clicked, it pops up with a list of errors that read: "An unexpected error occurred while performing a conform action on the following file...". As a result, my audio channels have no waveform and during playback there are no audible tones or levels. On some video clips there's just text that reads "Media Pending". This only appears to happen with project files that I saved on external hard drives, and I suspect it has something to do with the Media Cache Files folder and how Premiere Pro locates these conform/index files. I've also encountered this problem in CS3 and CS4.
I have a few questions:
1) How do I avoid error messages in regards to indexing and conforming
2) How do you know when indexing/conforming has completed itself? (there doesn't seem to be a progress log or a list of commands/executions)
3) Indexing and conforming appears to be an automatic process, but is there a way to do it manually?
4) What's the best way to setup your media cache files when you click EDIT > PREFERENCES > MEDIA?
5) If I have approximately 1 hour of footage, what's an average wait time for conforming/indexing? What about 5 hours of footage? 10?
6) Adobe recommends not editing until the conforming and indexing has completed itself-- how important is this?
7) Sometimes it appears as though the conforming and indexing has finished, but then I still have problems with playback. Do I have to reopen the project for it to continue with the conforming/indexing progress? I've already determined that the video file I'm working with is intact and free of any corruption.
I'm fine with having to wait for a project to conform and index, but it never seems to complete itself! Any help regarding this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Harm filled in pretty much all the salient details, but I'll do another pass here.
1) How do I avoid error messages in regards to indexing and conforming
Two parts here. One, conforming only happens for certain media files, ie the ones where performance is critical and we can't depend on extracting the audio fast enough for realtime playback. That's basically anything in an .mpeg wrapper, or AVCHD material. So if you edit XDCAM HD/EX or P2, or RED, or even AVIs or QT, those formats don't require audio conforming.
If you're stuck editing AVCHD or MPEG2, then it needs to conform. But, that being said, you shouldn't be getting errors in the first place. I think it's related to your external drives. More below...
2) How do you know when indexing/conforming has completed itself? (there doesn't seem to be a progress log or a list of commands/executions)
Nope, you have a progress status bar indicating which file it's working on. If there's an error, it shows up in the events panel.
3) Indexing and conforming appears to be an automatic process, but is there a way to do it manually?
No.
4) What's the best way to setup your media cache files when you click EDIT > PREFERENCES > MEDIA?
While some people like having the check box for having the conform files beside the media, I hate it. Yes, it means that if you move the project to a different system & reopen, it means that you potentially can avoid recreating CFA files, but I find the drive littering not worth it. I much prefer having setting the Media prefs to point to a specific media drive. Usually a raid, if available. Definitely not an external drive that you disconnect & walk away with. If you don't have a permanent raid on your system, then preferably a dedicated internal drive for media (think along the lines as your Photoshop 'scratch disk'). Failing that, leave it on your C: drive, although with a 64 Gig SSD, you probably don't have much room for transient temporaries.
5) If I have approximately 1 hour of footage, what's an average wait time for conforming/indexing? What about 5 hours of footage? 10?
Like Harm said. Totally dependant on the media container & the speed of your drive i/o. The conforming is iterating through the entire file & pulling audio data, so it's not CPU intensive, it's all i/o.
6) Adobe recommends not editing until the conforming and indexing has completed itself-- how important is this?
If you're trying to play/scrub while conforming, it's going to be pokey. Esp. if you're trying to access the file that's actively being conformd. As I just said, we're hitting the files for all the audio. The i/o is being saturated already, so unless you have a stellar raid, you don't have much headroom.
7) Sometimes it appears as though the conforming and indexing has finished, but then I still have problems with playback. Do I have to reopen the project for it to continue with the conforming/indexing progress? I've already determined that the video file I'm working with is intact and free of any corruption.
You should be good to go. Sounds like there's something else at play here.
Okay, back to what I think is wrong: you don't mention what kind of external drives you're using. You're making a bad assumption that blowing away conformed files & doing a reconform is buggy - I doubt it, as that's the same process that happened when you initially brought in the files. I've blown away my media cache folder multiple times and have never seen failures on reconform. So it's got to be one of two things: either a read error from the source when attempting to pull the audio, or a write error to the destination. Now I don't know where you currently are pointing the media cache directory, or what your source drive is, so I can only speculate.
My suggestion is to do some elimination. Copy one of the files that failed on you to your C drive, & target your media cache directory also to C:. Pick a new project, import your copied file, confirm that it conforms correctly & behaves. Then, try to use the same clip from your external drive, keeping the media cache to C:. If that's still good, then try targeting another (local/internal) drive as your media cache target; close/restart, then import the clip from C:, and then import the clip from your external drive. This troubleshooting should give us something.
PS, if you're trying to edit from external USB drives, good luck. I find it a major PITA that I avoid as much as possible. Firewire isn't much better. I know some people do it successfully, but I think it's a road fraught with peril. These devices are generally not designed for heavy duty I/O and a flaky connection or drive is nothing but pain.
Cheers

Error Message for "Media Pending" or "Media Offline"

This is INCREDIBLY frustrating.
It is my job at a church to produce broadcast-quality segments for our local tv stations for 28 minute slots. I am working with HD-quality videos, bumpers, audio files, etc. It takes my PC about 30 minutes to render each segment and I work with about 4 segments a week. Add that up, and it takes me two straight hours to render each finished product (not counting any edit work), all which have to be done in a day because we broadcast most of the stuff that happens on Sunday the following Tuesday.
That said, I render the final product, after everything has been through quality-control, through encoder because of the FTP option. When I leave every Monday afternoon, I start the queue for the four segments, which, in turn, will spit out the product and FTP it to our server at the tv stations.
But when I come in Tuesday morning and find that AME has rendered four USELESS videos because, instead of informing me when I started the queue there was something wrong with fetching the video files, it decided to render some stupid stock frame of either, "Media Pending" or "Media Offline" - which makes ABSOLUTLY NO sense, for when I open premiere or after effects, it renders quite fine through AME. You can't sit here and tell me that the rendering software requires the project to be open in Premiere or AE. That would be counter productive and impossible for anyone batch-rendering.
Here is what I need: Just a simple, "Hello, there was something wrong with fetching all of the media files in your project (blank, blank, blank) - please check your project file."
Thanks!

Premiere Pro CC 2014 gets stuck on Media Pending.

Hi there,
I've been having a bit of trouble with PPCC 2014 opening projects then getting stuck with all my footage and assets and after effects comps just displaying with 'Media Pending'. The program still works, opens, and I can save and click around so it's not crashing but nothing loads unless I force it to relink which obviously isn't great when I'm having to edit multiple large projects. These projects still open just fine on regular old Premiere Pro CC so I will continue using that for the time being.
Media Encoder is also having an issue with After Effects comps that are in Premiere Pro timelines and only display as 'Media Pending'.
Fortunately all these issues go away if I reboot my machine and try again straight away, but having to reboot my mac just to open a project or do a export isn't exactly preferable.
I have a Mac Pro (late 2013) with 10.9.4 with 16gb Ram and a AMD D500 3GB card.
I'm just wondering if anyone has been suffering with the same issues and has come across any fixes.
Thanks in advance.

Here is my post from another thread concerning the same issue:
I got through Adobe to connect to me remotely to solve this problem twice. They cleaned the cache and preferences and renamed my Adobe folder under applications (don't exactly know how thy did it.) The problem disappeared only to come back after a little while. No video playback, unresponsive buttons - but playable audio, and media pending for all clips. I told them to report this to tech support. This was about a month ago but no updates still..I know I hadn't had this issue neither with CS6 nor with CC.
I am currently rendering my project after changing the sequence's editing mode to Quicktime ProRes Proxy to see if it will help. Preview is still preview but as you said maybe the issue is to be with preview settings set to i-frame mpeg. I have read about the mpeg importer plugin to be an issue in previous versions of premiere pro concerning issues with media pending but i might be wrong.
After changing the sequence settings to Prores Proxy (or if you don't have these codecs installed you may try another codec or google "Prores codec install" and have them installed) the problem cleared away. I have looped the timeline and played it over and over for a couple of hours without the issue surfacing.

Premiere CC Media pending

I just checked on the Adobe site and this problem seemed to have been a real issue until last year. With an increasing growth of files within Premiere it seems to be unable to connect to them. I get that now getting the message: media pending. All files have been loaded and I can hear the sound, but even in the preview you can not see any pictures/videos. I have got over 100 files connected, including 3 camera views in HD plus some clips and scans (some files are 600 dpi though as I need them quite big to zoom into those A4 pages, like indidual (musical) notes from a score. I always mirror my files as so many times the premiere file has become corrupted and was not being able to be opened again.
But no matter which file (or copy) I open at the moment it won't give me anything but sound.
I have got 11 GB RAM reserved for Premiere so that should be enough ... and on the scratch disc I got 460 GB left (within a 2 TB harddrive), but maybe I will need more Crucial CT256M4SSD2BAA 256GB M4 SATA III 6Gb/s MLC 9.5mm 2.5 Inch Internal SSD for RAM for Adobe to get it sorted. Currently Windows 7 ultimate runs on such a solid state drive but perhaps I will have to install another one just for RAM like I mentioned to cope with the work.
Actually sometimes when I shut down Premiere now and try to restart it ... hoping that the files will be properly displayed, Premiere does not start at all. I really don't know if that is a bug again or maybe the bug that was mentioned to be fixed last year was not fixed completely.
Another side effect seems to be that some files (sound as well as pictures, get corrupted being imported into premiere. So pictures all of a sudden get faulty lines or sound crashes that have not been there before. Then I copy them from a backup folder and they load fine.
So I really don't know what Premiere (import) sometimes does to files.
But at the moment it worries me most that the video and picture files are not being displayed so I can't do nothing at the moment, as I have to animate music score on music (showing the notes when I can hear them or the explanations for them).
Hope somebody can help as I am through all these very upsetting problems several days behind schedule.

Well, the agent said that this was the case. In fact when I was relinking the files on this pc it would not even let me do that.
with NLE you mean drag and drop? I mean normally, if you copy something for backup (like a picture or whatever file) you normally just copy it to another harddrive or even the whole project to keep the structure of the tree. That is how I learned to do things like with Pagemaker or now InDesign. So if you want to keep or safe a magazine for example you just take the whole folder with all connected pictures and adverts and copy it to an external drive and that is all it normally needs.
Not here apparently.
But when you say the project manager has it's own set of issues. I think there is hardly any major programme within the Adobe collection that has not any issues. The amount of complaints I can see in the community. The issues might be small sometimes (just a guess) but it just proves that the collection is anything but (fully) trustworthy. Really not good for a product that is supposed to be for professionals as well as average users.
At the moment, if somebody would ask me for my judgment, I would not really know if I could recommend it. But then .... I do not know how well Programms like Pinnacle or others have. Might be the same ... nothing is perfect in life .... yet it is really annoying that you work really hard for weeks and weeks and all of a sudden ...
Yes, the relinking should work just flawless, like in InDesign .... no problems. So I really wonder what result I might get if I really have to go from scratch. I did not get to the point discussing with him that some TIF files got corrupted (getting lines) after being imported to Premiere. When I overwrote those links by the same TIF that I had on another drive for backup, it would be fine in Premiere as well.
So that is another issue. I already updated my pc-guy about the situation and let me know that we should first check on the system as Premiere needs quite a while to launch, really, then install the new RAM or say extra RAM of 256 GB SSD to make it really fast and then see what we can do from there. I just hope to get going very quickly as all of this delay is anything but good and people do want results. And facting these problems: if this is your job making money with it, can you ever be sure to get anything out? I mean, if customers ask you: when will it be ready? The only thing you may say is: if everything goes according to plan and nothing unusual happens it should be ready then and then. But it could be delayed for months ... if you can't solve problems like this. That is not really satisfying.

AVCHD to Premiere Pro with TMPGenc -- Media Pending--Forever!

After much searching for a conversion solution that didn't
utterly destroy the picture quality, I settled on TMPGenc 4 as a converter to make MPEG2 files at a comparable bitrate to XDCam EX, which is our native camera.. one of the four cameras we use on orchestra shoots is the Canon HF S200 (it's the only one that fits on the 11" micro tripod that fits on a 8" deep nook in the orchestra shell). We use this camera for the fixed, locked off conductor face shots.
So, I converted the AVCHD file from the Canon camera to MPEG2 35Mb/S. It plays fine in Bridge, but when I import it into Premiere CS3, it does nothing. No indexing, nothing. Clip displays "Media Pending".. geeze, I remember this problem from HDV days.. one of the reasons I dumped HDV was this Media Pending problem that would cause missed deadlines.
The video clip specs (short test clip from camera 4):
File Path: F:\Project_2\Movie_00_(00026).mpg
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 24.6 MB
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Pixel Depth: 1920
Frame Rate: 29.97
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00;00;08;29
Average Data Rate: 2.7 MB / second
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
In addition to no video, there's no audio either.. the audio portion is on the timeline, but it's flatline. Clicking on Normalize, it will boost the level to 96dB, which is an indication of no audio present in the data.
Remember, the clip plays fine in Bridge.
I really, really HATE AVCHD. Nothing but problems. But this is the only camera that fits and can do 24P like the XDCam cameras used elsewhere in the concert hall.. any ideas how to make this Media Pending go away?

I'm on CS3 (mentioned that in the 2nd paragraph of original post) and it says that the AVCH
D camera file is a bad or corrupt file. I can't do anything with AVCHD files.. frankly I don't know why camera manufacturers upset the boat with these crazy new formats.. the world should just be on XDCam EX format like Panasonic and Sony and be done with it.
So I converted it in TMPGenc 4 and got a MPEG2 file out of that which is of good quality. The only problem is that I'm back to the headaches I had with HDV, which is that the video never appears--just that yellow "Media Pending" for the entire clip. I sold my HDV cams because I was missing deadlines trying to troubleshoot that problem frequently, turning 30 minute editing jobs into a multi-day oddyssey of tech support calls, research and hacking the CODECs to get around that problem.
Quicktime works without the Media Pending problem, but a short clip balloons to several gigabytes. I have to deal with a 3 hour clip next week, so I don't think my 1TB drive can hold that much in QuickTime Photo JPEG format.
These are program streams, multiplexed. 1920x1080, 23.976fps, high profile MPEG, 10-bit DCT and high quality motion search. Audio is PCM. Trying to make this mesh smoothly with XDCam footage.

Premiere cc constantly says 'Media Pending'

Hi, if anyone could help me resolve this problem I would be so grateful as I have been tearing my hair out trying to fix it. I was editing wedding footage for a client (the first one I have ever done!) and noticed that as I added more warp stabilisation to my shots, Premiere started getting quite slow and sticky. Then it finally froze and crashed. However, uponrestarted it just says 'media pending' and will not play any of the footage. the worst thing about this is it has affected my auto save files too which do the exact same thing!
All the footage is stored on my hard drive on a 2013 Macbook Pro, 8gb ram with no other programs installed and with over 200gb of space free. I have tried clearing the cache and this did not help. Previously to this Premiere had been crashing at least once per day and twice even wiped all my footage! (Although I was able to retrieve the majority of it from my last autosave). This is currently a trial version of Premiere Pro cc. Any advice or help any of you could give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Tony

Hi,
Thanks for replying. I just did what you suggested but unfortunately no difference. The footage was shot on a canon 7d, 30fps as .mov files with a h.264 codec. With this uncompressed footage Premiere was really struggling to do anything (never mind let me edit) so I was advised by a friend to transcode the footage to an easier codec (i think it might have been Apple DVCPRO50) but still in a .mov format. This worked better for a time (with less crashes) but whenever i started adding the warp stabiliser it all fell apart.
I had a guy from Adobe controlling my computer for over an hour today trying to work out what the problem was. He was stumped and advised me to move my footage form the external drive to my hard drive - this worked for a short time before the same problem with 'media pending' occurred and i haven't been able to access the footage since.
I am starting to think i might have to start again with my footage (this will be the 3rd time a serious problem with Premiere has forced to restart my project), could i ask you guys what is the best format to transcode the footage to ensure there is as little strain as possible on Premiere while also retaining the best image quality?

Media pending Premiere Pro CC

Here is the answer for MEDIA PENDING issue, after you render on Adobe Premiere CC 2014, all you have to do is click on the little eye icon on the left side of the sequence and then un-click it...or click back on it,,,,,,.and presto!!! you can see your wonderful rendered master piece!!!! Do this for every video line that you're using. I hope this helps, happy editing!!!

I am having the same problem... I think.
I convert my media through MPEG Streamclip to Apple Pro Res (HQ22) and, interlace my video and have it set to 1920 x 1080 30fps. Whenever I open Adobe Premiere CC and I use the exact information as the footage, it will always tell me that its the wrong sequence settings to the footage, so I click "Change Sequence Settings" (thinking that I have done something wrong. Then that Media Pending will always come up, and then I always get drop frames and the footage looks clumsy. I have tried so many times to change the sequence settings to whatever the Properties of my clips say, and yet the same thing always happens.
I just upgraded to CC and used CS5 before. I have the adobe suite and don't have a problem with the rest of the Adobe programs. Thinking I might convert back to FCP 7 if things stay this way!
Can anyone help???

Premiere Pro CC freezes after opening project. "Media Pending"

So I'm editing a music video I filmed with a Canon 60D, 1080p 23.976 fps, and i was chopping and layering clips that had not yet been rendered for the colour correction done on them, which was a slow process. (I have a mid 2010 mac book pro with an upgrade to SSD's and 8GB of ram, 2.4GHz Intel Core i5, and NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 256MB, running os 10.9.2).
ANYWAY, I had to save and close it without rendering it yet and whenever I try and open it again, it opens the project, but then freezes and I get the spinning beachball of doom. I can see the sequence and all the edits that I had done, but the program window is yellow and says "Media Pending". I have to force quit to get out of it because it always says Premiere Pro CC is not responding. This does NOT happen with any of my other projects. This particular project is not crazy huge, but it's larger than my other projects which are few and it's certainly enough to make my macbook cry. I will be very grateful for any help.

PP CC crashes quite often.
Sorry to hear that. Please check out this doc: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
You also might try the following:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferences
Delete media cache
Delete preview files
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
Disconnect any third party hardware
If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCL
Disable App Nap
Reboot
Report back if anything here worked for you.
Thanks,

Opening all projects freezes Premiere with Media Pending

Hi there,
I've run into a problem with Premiere Pro CS6. Last week, I experienced a crash while working on a project, and ever since then I have been completely unable to open ANY of my saved projects.
Whenever I now try to open any saved project - regardless of whether it contains any footage or not - Premiere immediately freezes unrecoverably. The same thing happens with newly created projects. If the project contains video footage, the 'Media Pending' preview shows on the frozen page - if there is NO video footage in the project (which would be rare, obviously), then it just freezes without the Media Pending message.
I can, however, open a previously saved project by opening Premiere, creating a NEW project and importing an old project or sequence into it. Using this method I am able to encode one video at a time. I can not use Adobe Media Encoder to queue up video sequences for encoding - Adobe Media Encoder also crashes (freezes) whenever I attempt to start the encoding queue.
Steps attempted to resolve this issue (all unsuccessful);
Uninstalled the Adobe Master Collection CS6 completely, followed by a reinstallation. No change.
Uninstalled every Adobe application on the computer, then deleted every remaining Adobe directory I could find - including those contained in Program Files, Program Files (x86) and in my user profile directory. Also emptied my Media Cache folders. I also then ran the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and removed everything it would allow me to from CS6 and below. Followed by a reinstallation. No change.
Both of the above installing back without any patches (Premiere CS6.0.0) and with patches (Premiere CS6.0.5). No change.
Emptied the 'Temp' folder for my user profile. No change.
The one slightly useful thing that I have found is that if I create a new user account in Windows and open Premiere from there, everything seems to be fine - so the issue would seem to be related to my Windows user account ... I just don't know how to fix it.
I do not want to simply eraze my current user account because it would take me ages to restore all of my preferences, applications and whatnot to their correct configuration - and there's no guarantee that the same thing wouldn't occur again (especially given that I've seem similar reports from other people, so it's not an isolated incident).
Other than Premiere and Media Encoder, I'm not aware of any other Adobe application suffering from a problem.
I'm running Windows 7 Pro, SP1, incidentally. Thanks in advance for any help or insight anyone can provide.

The user profile may well be damaged, but it's pretty difficult to Google user profile faults when the only applications displaying any symptoms whatsoever are Premiere and Media Encoder. Add to this the fact that there are numerous other reports of the same thing having happened to other Premiere users for a range of reasons (including font conflicts and external or virtual drives). Also, the issue materialised not at an undetermined time - but precisely when Premiere suffered a crash, in use. It would be irrational to rule out the possibility that something external to Premiere could have caused the crash, but whatever has been damaged would seem to be directly related to a resource that Premiere was using at the time. Identifying that specific resource would be invaluable.
Anyway, this is all pretty moot now - I'm in the process of setting up a new profile. I'll just have to hope that it won't occur again. I would like to have spent some time trying to identify exactly which aspect of the profile was affected, but sadly time is an issue.
If anyone else is experiencing similar symptoms and stumbles upon this thread, they might want to look at this: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4323738. It didn't help me, but maybe it'll be of use to someone else.
Also worth considering is the possibility that external drives, virtual drives or virtual file systems have also been reported as causing these symptoms (for example, I'd used a Linux file system integrator/emulator some months ago - not that this had coincided in any way with these issues for me).
Thanks for taking the time to respond, Jim.
