CS4 Project manager creates a double copy of footage when there's a subclip. Is this a bug?

Hi all,
Although I think I can solve this for my project by changing the clip link, I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem.
I used the project manager to collect all files. It makes a double copy of a 5 GB footage file. It makes an exact copy of the footage adding a _001 to its name. The duplicated file is made for a subclip. The extra copy seems unneeded. The subclip can be linked to the original footage file just like it is linked in the original project.

No It isn't. It is DV  in an .AVI file. I used Collect files so the files shouldn't be trimmed. An identical full length copy of the file was made for the subclip.
I solved it by making the subclip of the new collected project offline and then relinking it to the original file. Then I deleted the extra identical 5 GB file that the project manager created.

  • CS4 Project Manager not trimming clips.

    Will premiere pro cs4 project manager trim the source clip file size based on in and out points?
    I could swear I have done this before last year. When I do a project manager trim is creates a folder, changes the name of the file, but doesn't change the original size.
    I created a project and imported just one clip , trimmed in from 1min to 5 seconds and dropped in into a timeline. After the proj mgr export the file wasn't trimmed in the new folder at all. I tried adding handles.

    Thanks Jim. That little tid bit doesn't show up in the on-line help.

    I assume that you don't have the installation discs, so:
    1. Reboot
    2. Hold command + s key down after you hear the chime.
    3. When you get a text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
    (Type these commands very carefully)
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -h now
    4. You will go through the setup process again, create a new admin account, login to it and then change your existing account password or whatever else you need to do. You can delete the account you made in this process, or not.

    Next time, you can use the Text Wrap function, so you don't need to manually wrap the text.

  • Project Manager - Creating Trimmed Project w Handles, still leaving me with Huge Project

    I'm trying to create a trimmed version of a completed Premiere Pro project, via "Project Manager...",
    but I'm confused why I'm not getting a more condensed resulting project size.
    This project consists of a completed 3.5 minute edit of a 2-camera conference video. 
    The majority of clips in the sequence are drawn from several hour-long clips in the master media folder, but the project I'm trying to archive and share
    is this 3.5 minute highlight/digest piece.  I was hoping I could send a trimmed project (sequence) to my finishing editor, without having to transfer all the media, and all the unused parts of some of these long clips,
    and was under the assumption that "trimming" would accomplish this, however trying to make a trimmed version with handles in Project Manager, is still leaving me with a 90+gig project.
    Exporting this sequence when selecting "Match Sequence Settings" produces a 694.7 MB .mpeg movie, culled from .mxf files (PMW300) and .mts files (C100).
    What am I missing?
    I also attempted to create an AE project by importing this PP project (1 selected sequence) into AE,
    and reducing/consolidating and collect files, and was still being left with a 90+gig project (see attached)
    Would love any insight or workflow tips!
    (settings in Project Manager)
    ("Collect Files" folder from an AE export of the same project, creating 96+gig footage folder for 3.5min .mpeg video )

    As Richard noted, Create New Trimmed Project is limited in the formats that it supports/trims. All MPEG formats will be copied in their entirety. i.e.: not trimmed.
    Starting with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 (8.1), Consolidate and Transcode was added, which may suit your needs. More information can be found at:

  • [CS5] Project Manager Trimming not supported for HDV footage?

    Yes, I have the licensed version of CS5 Production Premium.
    The Premiere Pro "Project Manager" allows you to create a "trimmed" version of your project. That is, only the footage actually used in sequences (along with some handles) is placed in the new, trimmed project. For example, I have a project which uses only 1 second of an 11 second HD Quicktime clip.
    original project folder which includes the clip = 352MB.
    trimmed project folder is = 26MB
    My problem is with a similar project using only a small portion of an HDV clip (M2T):
    original project folder = 232MB
    trimmed project folder = 232MB
    There is nothing I can find int the Adobe help file regarding limitations for HDV files with the trim feature. This problem is not limited to CS5. I experienced it also in CS4 but resolving it was not a priority at the time. But I now have a large number of projects I wish to archive.

    Jeremy, I am assuming that this is harder to solve, because it gets into Premiere and/or the mainconcept codec being used, not providing smart rendering.  You can't just take the middle of an mpeg clip without rendering.  Premiere could do this, but there would be a quality hit.  Is there any chance we will see a more sophisticated approach to mpeg inside Premiere?  And I am also interested in whether the long gop formats are/might be addressed differently from others.
    Todd, here is the CS5 help file that should have this.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b1038518aef7-7c74a .html
    And it does not.
    In earlier versions (I'm still CS3, and I think it was CS3 in which there was this discussion), I found that you could not work around this by creating a subclip.  In fact, the original full clip would be repeated for each instance of the subclip.
    If someone adds a comment to this help entry, and it is a weak attempt, do you edit the comment so that the help file is most useful?

  • Opening CS4 projects in CS5 error with Canon 5D footage HELP!!!

    HI Im trying out the new Premiere Pro CS5 demo and Im getting major problems opening projects.
    Initially I couldnt open any of my CS4 projects but could import single sequences one at a time only, not whole projects. So I was finally working fine yesturday and today nothing opens that includes canon 5d footage . I get this error.
    "This project contains a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    I get the same message when I import a whole project. Yet I can import a whole project 1 sequence at a time!!!
    I can only create new projects which save and open but all older saved projects do not open.
    thanks
    remainz

    Yes, this is an intermittent issue with CS5. Somehow, there’s a problem wherein certain commonly-used codecs suddenly remove/disable themselves. I had this problem, and it was driving me crazy as I couldn’t open anything, and it was just way, way too much work to recreate. So I opened up a new project. Lo and behold, the program suddenly informed me that there were codecs that needed to be installed. Codecs which, I’m sure, have been installed already, but obviously Premiere knows that they’re missing. Allowing the program to install them, and then allowing it to quit itself, and then reopening the program again enabled Premiere to open all of my projects again.

  • Did class Double change in 1.5?!! (Or is this a bug?)

    In my mind, if I use Double.valueOf, it has to be like this:
    String stringValue = "2.0";
    Double doubleValue = Double.valueOf(stringValue);
    However, the 1.5 javac is currently allowing me to use valueOf and cast the answer to a native.
    double doubleValue = Double.valueOf(stringValue);
    -- No compliation error -
    What's going on here? Did I miss the memo?
    If I write the same code in 1.4, the compiler spits up.

    Nevermind - answered my own question.
    Must be that new-fangled auto-boxing/deboxing stuff from C++.
    You kids and your gee-wiz toys ...
    I foresee a road paved with good intentions.

  • Project Server 2010 - Once individual settings are changed is there any way to save this down for each person

    A timesheet submitter sets certain filters and "group by", the timesheet is then sorted according to those filters and groups. Once time sheet is saved & Submitted the filters/groups are changed back to the default for any subsequent time
    reporting periods. Is there any way to predetermine the Filter=No filter and Group by=Project for all timeperiods.

    For specific users not possible, however if you know many people use Timesheet in a specific way you might want to  consider generic timesheet view which users can choose.

  • Premiere cs6 unknown error during the project manager operation

    It appears this is an ongoing issue that needs to be addressed by Adobe. 
    I remember back in CS3 this was an issue and it still appears to be unresolved.  I'm using a Windows 7, HP Z workstation with Quadro FX graphics card, plenty of Ram, with an efficient RAID system. I need to provide a complete project (with files folder & assets in a central folder - maybe even trimmed assets) to my clients.  The Project Manager create Trimmed Project continually fails, as well as Collect files and Copy to New Location.  Following the Adobe instructions, no screensaver, turn off Premiere Autosave, don't use other programs that will impact machine usage - the results are still the same - unknown error - PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ADOBE ! ! ! ! So my question is, When will Adobe address this issue?

  • Error in Interfacing Project Invoices to AR - No Active Project Manager

    I am getting an error while transferring a projects invoice to AR.
    I am running concurrent program 'PRC: Interface Invoices to Receivables' program from a responsibility that was created as per the client project security requirements.
    The output  gives an error message - 'No Active Project Manager Found'.
    Note:
    - The project manager is active on the project.
    - The person record of the project manager is active with an active HR assignment.
    - The project manager role is not end dated.
    When I run this same program from the standard Project Implementation Super User responsibility for the same project, the invoice gets interfaced to Receivables without any error.
    Why does this happen ?
    Is this concurrent program dependent on any menu / function / profile option ? If so, which one ?
    Regards,
    Prakash

    Hi Prakesh,
    Were you able to generate Invoice and AR Invoice Number in PJB?

  • Project Manager Trimmed Temp File Location

    Hello,
    I recently tried to trim down a 100GB project. I had 8GB left on my harddrive, and the project manager said the final project would be 7GB, so I took the chance and started trimming.
    Unfortunately, I ran out of diskspace during the trim, and the Project Manager aborted the action. Fair enough. However, when I checked my diskspace in finder, I only had 100MB free space. That means the temp file, that the project manager created while trimming the project, is still stored somewhere. But I have no idea where it is stored or what it is named.
    I'm on a Mac 10.6.4, CS5.
    Do you know where (or how) to look?
    Thanks,

    Where are your Scratch Disks located?
    What was the Destination Folder, that you directed PrPro to archive your Project?
    Note that performance of a HDD begins to decline at ~ 70% of capacity, and falls off sharply, as one fills the drive. It can also contribute to premature failure of the HDD. Sounds like it's time to get larger, or more HDD's.
    Good luck,

  • "unexpected error" when w export a film from Adobe CS6 Project manager? Help?

    When trying to copy over a production via Project manager to another drive the system seems to be exporting the media etc and at the very end it says "Unexpected Error. Save yoru file and retry." We've done this several times and been on the phone with tech support for eleven hours and no joy.
    Anyone have any ideas? We are on 6.01 and this is still a buggy program.

    Yes,
    I am producing TV shows for FOX TV in LA. We completed editing a 30 minute special for local broadcast. We need to get the piece off of our machine in the contract studio and over to sound so that we can do a sound EQ. I am using the following process.
    Project Manager> Source is the film sequence with a small animation piece> Collect files and copy to a new location (our esternal media/show drive) Includes all files The project size is 125 GB. and resulting project size calculates at 125 Gb.
    We next select OK and the project manager seems to be copying the project to a new location. It takes about 30 minutes and when the time bar reaches 98% it cashes. We get a diaglouge that says "an unexpected error has occured please save and try again."
    We have spent hours on the phone with tech support and gone through a number of ideas inclduing checking for Microsoft conflicts etc. No joy. The machine this is on is not a server. It's a Dell on Windows 7 running 16GB of RAM but no Cuda card.
    We have deadline to meet and this is not helping. If we can;t do this here we will recut the show in FCP on the MAC. I prefer Premiere but at least FCP works.
    Please advise and thank you.

  • How do you order topics within the Project Manager?

    Hi all,
    I notice that the workflow in RH is that first you use the
    Project Manager (PM) to build a sort of structured topic database,
    and then you use the database to generate a TOC.
    Ok, so far so good, but the immediate little issue I am
    having is that I see that the PM arranges my topics within each
    folder in alphabetical order. Since, by default, the TOC is
    generated with the topics in this default order, I would like to
    change the order in which the topics are arranged within the PM. I
    don't seem to find any way to do this. I can't drag and there are
    no Move buttons for this pod. What am I missing?
    TIA
    - avi

    Hi Avi
    You aren't missing anything. That's the way it works with the
    Project Manager Pod. It simply lists your topic files in
    alphabetical order.
    For starters, I would never recommend that anyone always
    automatically create the TOC. I might suggest using that only as a
    first step in building a TOC. After it has been built initially,
    any added or amended topics would then be manually added and
    rearranged by you after the changes have been made.
    Unless you are happy with things that way (and I assume you
    aren't as you are posting to ask how to make it different) you will
    find yourself constantly frustrated. Note that if you auto create
    the TOC, you get ALL topics inside. And in many help files there
    are topics that never see the light of day in the TOC structure.
    All that aside, I do see a great many folks that want to have
    an ability to arrange topics in their Project Manager pod as they
    want. For you and anyone else that wants this, you should consider
    submitting a Wish Form to ask for the feature.
