"CAHeadless Debug Event" Error

Greetings,
I am getting the following error popping up in a dialog box about every five minutes:
CAHeadless Debug Event
CAHeadless has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Clip\VideoClip.cpp-276]
I have to click "Continue" to make it going away temporarily.
As a workaround, if I click Edit > Preferences > Media-Analysis, and clear the "Analyze Media for Smart Tags Automatically" box, the errors stop. But I was wondering if here was an actual fix for this error, instead of just a work-around which I discovered.
Thanks,
Shane.

They don't take up much space—but since I installed version 11 there has been a lot of weird and strange behaviour, and I'm just trying to figure out what's causing it.
I deleted psa.prf, restarted PSE, and re-selected my preferences. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the error.
I notice that when I click Edit > Preferences > Media-Analysis, and click "Analyze Media for Smart Tags Automatically", a process called "ElementsAutoAnalyzer.exe" starts, and I start getting the error. When I clear "Analyze Media for Smart Tags Automatically", the "ElementsAutoAnalyzer.exe" process ends, and the error messages stop.
I'm guessing the only work-around is to not use this feature.

"CAHeadless Debug Event" Error message

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.0 installed on my Windows 7 computer and have recently started getting a message that I believe may be associated with that program. The message reads "CAHeadless Debug Event" "CAHeadless has encountered an error - [..\..\Src\DataManager.cpp-410]"
Does anyone know what may be causing this message and how to cure it. I am able to click the Continue button and everything works as it should but it is a little annoying.
Thanks

I am also having the same CAHeadless Debug error on PSE 9.
Switching catalogs does not help.
Turning off face recognition does not help.
I have looked through the forums and on the internet and it seems that this is a common problem for PSE 7, PSE 8, and now PSE 9.
Does anyone have a solution?

CAHeadless Debug Event for Adobe Photoshop Elements 12

I am getting this error periodically (every 5 min or so).
What is interesting is that Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 is not even open and yet the following error appears:
The error window is named "CAHeadless Debug Event"
Inside the window it says;
CAHeadless has encountered an error.

Problem with PSE9 - Receiving message window - CAHeadless Debuger Event.

In my last request for Technical support (Case # : 0181931685), I have 2 problems. One about inability to remove PSE9 and reinstalling was corrected by following instructions from Tech.Support. The second problem is still with me. The message window CAHeadless Debuger Event is poping up with the message ...\...\Src\DataManager.cpp-410. The window is having one button <Continue>. When I press the Continue button, everithing work and look OK until next time the windows pop-ups. The computer is new Dell Studio 8100 running OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64. Originaly I started using PSE9 on old Dell with Windows 7 Home premium 32 without any problem. Any advice how to stop this un-plessant message comming?
Thanks a lot! George.

Hi all,
this case is closed it was catalog issue. I corrected this by creating new catalog and importing pictures from hard drive. All is now correct.

Pro Debug Event - Error 290 /tick time

Suddenly a project I was working (and all the auto-saved folders) could not open anymore by giving me the following message: "Pro Debug Event - error 290 tick time"

Whenever you enounter an error, as a general rule, search the forum to see if it's already been addressed, or to join the discussion:
TickTime.cpp-290 error after opening a specific project | Premiere CC 2014.2 | Windows 8.1
Also, I always convert/ingest my media to use the same format that runs natively in PPro and does not require conforming.
Second, with regards to losing work with projects that can't be fixed. I always save my projects incrementally to new names as I go. When I hit an issue that cannot be resolved (and occasionally I do), I reopen the previously saved project and try something else. In fact today I hit a stack error. It was a three-day edit, and I was on version "(project name)_028.prproj" I just opened up the previous version "..._027.prproj", repeated the few edits that I lost in "028" and rendered without error. Follow that?
Anyway, read the link above for a possible fix.

Can uninstalling and installing CS4 fix the debug event error message?

Hello,
Can uninstalling and installing cs4 solve the debug event error message?

Can uninstalling and installing cs4 solve the debug event error message?
Well, that DOES seem to be the scripted mantra of Adobe TS in some out of the way country. According to most reports, that cures everything from trying to Capture over a USB cable to working with footage from your cellphone camera. In most cases, it has cured very little, though maybe the Debug Event error IS something that will be fixed by this.
Good luck,

PE 11 new install on WinXP system - Debug event error, can't open program

Hi everyone,
I searched the community for similar errors and followed a couple of troubleshooting steps suggested for older versions of PE, but they didn't work. I just installed Premiere Element 11 on my Windows XP office desktop (also installed PS Elements 11, which works without a problem.) Install went well and I rebooted the system as prompted. Every time I attempt to open Premiere however (I am not attempting to load any video files, I just want to open the program to start a new project), I get the splash screen at first, but after a few seconds of "Loading" and/or "Initializing" a bunch of parameters, the program hangs and following screen pops up:
"Premiere Element Debug Event"
Premiere Element has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Core\Preferences.ccp-338]
Continue
When I click on "Continue" the following window pops up:
"Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library"
Runtime Error!
Program: ..e\Adobe Premiere Elements 11\Adobe Premiere Elements.exe
The application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
OK
So, here I am support team... Need more information, lol. I will also add that clicking the OK after the second window pops up often doesn't close the Premiere splash window still visible in the background, I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and kill it manually by ending the process in Task Manager.
I installed the same program - same s/n - on my home computer as well, with no issues (that's a much newer, and much faster, Windows 8.1 system however.) I think you are entitled to install 2 copies though, right? So this wouldn't be related to too many attempts to register the same software?
Thanks for any help.

Wea re not Adobe. We are Premiere Elements users who visit here under our own free will (unscheduled) to help other Premiere Elements users with their Premiere Elements workflows.
Please detail the resources of your Windows XP computer. What edition is it...professional, home premium, or other? You realize come April 2014 Microsoft will discontinue support for Windows XP. Apparently you can continue to use it, but Microsoft points to security risks in that state.
a. how much installed RAM, how much available
b. how much free hard drive space
c. is the video card/graphics card used by the computer up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card/graphics card.
Did you install the program to the computer default location according to the installation process?
Please review and then we can discuss the details.
Thank you.

Debug Event Error

About two weeks I asked for help. Hunt kindly responded with a request that if it happened again I am to give him certain information. I tried to do so by replying to his email, but for some reason it is being returned as undeliverable, so here are the basic messges again:
Quite frequently, I receive the following error message:
Premiere Elements Debug Event.
Premiere Elements has encountered an error.
[..\..\src\PlatformWindowsManager\PlatformWindowsManager.cpp-132]
The only option presented is a button which, if clicked on, exits the application without saving the content.
What is happening here? Obviously, this becomes very aggravating after a while.
Many thanks.
Walter
And here is the email I could not send to Hunt:
Hi Hunt,
Its happened again. Here are the events.
I had been capturing files from my DV video camera for about 3 hours. After each capture, I saved the captured file, opened a new file (not necessarily in the same folder) and started another capture.
I had just completed a capture and saved it and moved the timeline slider to be able to check one of the scenes (I don't remember if I actually pressed the Play button.) when the message appeared again. As before, when I clicked on "continue" the app shut down.

Walter,
I would assume that the e-mail notification feature is the little notice of a new reply to a post, that has been checked with the e-mail notification. To contact me, either the e'dress in my Profile, or an Adobe PM (Personal Message) sent from my Profile should reach me.
Now, with your error message, go to the Event Viewer (located in a couple of different places, depending on one's OS), but usually in the \\\System32 folder. It's also accessible from Programs>Utilities [?]. I have a shortcut on my Desktop, the moment that I get a new computer, so I'll have to look for it specifically, and then can only tell you where it is in XP-Pro SP3 - file name = eventvwr.exe.
In its opening screen, you'll see two windows. Look to the left and find "Application," and "System." Dbl-click on Application first, and you'll see a long list of programs and Processes. Scroll down, until you see some yellow triangles, and red circles with a white X. The name will begin with "Error," while the yellow triangles will read "Warning." Find some of these around the time/date as your crash. Dbl-click on each to get a dialog box. There may be useful info in there, but if there are any links, please follow those and read very carefully. Much can be contained in those links.
You might be better to do this, as soon as the program has thrown the error, and crashed. Then, you do not have to search down into the lists. Also do this for System, as well.
Doing this might lead to some clues into your mystery.
Screen-cap of Event Viewer:
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Pro Debug Event Error

When loading Adobe Premiere CS4 I get an error message.
"Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\ImporterProcessClient.cpp-127]"
I have windows 7 Proffesional 64bit operating system. And the CS4 student edition.

Thank you sir. Seeing that two Adobe experts suggested the same thing, I went ahead and sliced and diced, narrowing the sequence down to a single problematic .MOV file. I went to the original project, and replaced the file with the same video file and it worked! So the issue was a corrupt file link from it's folder to the Premiere project.
The problem is now solved!

Pe 13 debug event keyframe error h-142

When I open my previously saved and working project, I get a Debug Event with a keyframe h-142 message (see below).
The workaround proposed in adobe help under Keyframe.h-142 error | Opening projects does not work. I guess because PE13's .prel files are not in plain text format as PE12 and previously, therefore the workaround with perl will not deliver the required results.
Same issue with ALL backup files of this project...
Any suggestions?

I was able to fix the file with the information from post Re: Elements 10 Error: d:\pre\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\inc\Keyframe/Keyframe.h-142
Here are the steps I performed:
1) rename my corrupt.prel file to corrupt.zip (when opening the file in notepad++, I saw a lot of gibberish and thought the file might be zipped, which it is. I am not sure whether this is only the case in PE13).
2) unzip the corrupt.zip and rename it to corrupt2.prel
3) download perl and run the following commands:
C:\Perl64\bin>perl -p -e "s/([-0-9]+?),([0-9]{12,24})/$1.$2/g" corrupt2.prel >corrupt3.prel
C:\Perl64\bin>perl -p -e "s/([-0-9]+?)\.([0-9]{12,24});([0-9]{15})/$1.$2,$3/g" corrupt3.prel >corrupt4.prel
4) Open the file in notepad++ and
search for ",," and replace it by ".,"
search for "0,5" and replace it by "0.5"
and save the file
There, that did it for me. The fixed file does not have to be zipped again for it to open in PE13.
