Dropping audio when dragging clip from Source Panel to Timeline

I have having issues with audio being dropped when dragged from the Source Panel to the Timeline. Audio is present in the Source Panel and plays great along with video, but when I drag the selected clip to the Timeline it drops the audio.

Can't transfer video from source monitor to timeline
This is an answer to a previous topic about video but the same answer also applies to audio

Can't drag video from source monitor to timeline

I have been working a few years with Premiere Pro (now CC) and this never happened to me before.
I can't drag video from the source monitor to the timeline. What is happening? The sound can be dragged but there is a hand with a 'no sign' for the video??? How can I solve this problem without starting over again?

Please dont double post!!!!

Crashing when dragging clips into source box! "Premiere Pro has encountered an error."

Hi, I just installed the CS5 Premiere Pro software trial version and it keeps on crashing when I drag my imported clips into the source box?
It says:
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Please help b/c I would like to use this program for a project due Monday. Thank you so much!

@ Andrey V.: I tried that but it did not work. I still get the same error message. =(
@ Jeremy D.: It's "protected MPEG-4 movie"

I'm no longer asked to match sequence settings in Premiere Pro CC when dragging clip to timeline

I don't know what happened but all of a sudden, when I drag clips from project into the timeline, I'm no longer asked if I want to match clip settings with sequence settings. How can I re-enable this asking feature?

I have a band video that I want to edit. In iMove 09, I could clip to crop or add a transition or both without altering the audio. In iMovie 11, the audio lower or drops out when I clip for and use a transtion. Is there a setting to preven this?

Thanks for that info! Even in my time answering questions on iMovie Discussion Group, I never had a good understanding of when and how Optimize Movie came into play. I always would import as Optimized and Large Size and figured that was good enough. But knowing you got much, much more flexibility doing it the way you describe gives me a much better understanding of the different routes you can take into the Event Library.

Why can't I drag clips from my source window to my program window on Premiere CS6?

I am only able to drag clips from my source window to my timeline, but not to my program window. Anyone know what the problem might be?
Also, the "insert" and "overwrite" buttons are not working from my source window, nor are their shortcuts ("," or "."). I think the problem with the insert and overwrite buttons is related to the reason I can't drag clips from my source window to my program window. Any advice on either problem would be much appreciated, thanks!

Be sure the appropriate tracks are both targeted and routed.

Question about going from source monitor into timeline prior to going into program monitor?

In FCP you had to take a clip from the equivalent of the Source Monitor to the Program Monitor and either do an insert or overwite edit with the clip from there. I see that Premiere has insert and overwrite buttons built right into the Source monitor window. Are there any issues with doing it all from here and not dragging them into the Program Monitor first?
Thanks.

Typical NLE behavior is to go from the Source Monitor to the Timeline. The Program Monitor shows whatever is in the timeline. If FCP forced you to go from Source to Program, and then to timeline, that is very unusual behavior for an NLE since, again, the Program monitor is supposed to show you what's in the timeline.
What PP now allows you to do is drag a clip from Source to Program, but this will simultaneously add the clip to the timeline because, as I said, the Program Monitor's purpose is to show you what's in the timeline. With most any NLE out there, if it ain't in the timeline, it won't show up in the Program Monitor. And if it shows up in the Program Monitor, then it must already be in the timeline.

Audio track missing on timeline when I insert clip from source monitor

I have the following problem with PP CS6: my media contains two alternate mono tracks (one with the signal boosted as an insurance) and I have PP set up to treat them as two mono tracks, rather than one stereo track. Everything works fine when I drag media directly to the timeline from the project panel. But when I use the source monitor to select in and out points, and then insert the chosen clip into the timeline, only one of the two audio tracks appears on the timeline. Can anyone please explain how to make sure I get both tracks on the timeline via this route?
Thanks
DM

Hi Jim,
Thanks for replying. Unfortunately this doesn't apply to my case. I've set PP's default behaviour to import as dual mono in Edit\Preferences\Audio. This allows me to drag media from the project panel to the timeline and get two sediscrete mono channels. My problem is that when I go the source monitor route, any clip that I insert does not display two audio tracks on the timeline, just one. I have discovered I can switch the source channel from left to right, which to all intents and purposes fixes my problem, but I would like to maintain the option of getting both channels displayed separately on the timeline if possible.
Thanks

Premiere Pro CC: Drag from source monitor to timeline

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why this does not work. I can only drag video from the Source Monitor into my timeline. But when I try to drag audio, it just shows me a stop sign and no errors. So I can't really figure out why this is happening.
The workaround for this is to make the clip in the project window into it's own sequence, cut the clip and it's audio, and paste into the working timeline. However I don't think this is a good way of working and it's really annoying. Tried looking for results on how to fix this and only found ways of going around the problem instead of getting the problem resolved.

How funky, thanks Kevin. This solved the issue, I knew it had to be something extremely small that just kept bugging me.

Drag layers from layers panel to document tab

On this page http://www.photoshopuser.com/cs5/cs5-features I have read that Adobe finally have implemented "Drag a layer from Layers panel to another open document tab". Is this true, cause I can't make it work? I can do that in floated windows interface but in tabed it's not possible (as in CS4).
Can somebody from Adobe confirm this please?

I had the same problem when I first got it....called tech support as I was used to minimizing the windows to add a new layer...drag...drop....simple with CS3.....then it seemed they were locked together.
I did the floating windows thing too....but, that seemed unreasonable on every layer....even though it says "all windows"...it didn't seem to work. THEN, I found out that all you have to do is drag one layer apart from the other and then drag and drop! I liked the old way better, but hey...it works!!!
Sure hope this helps you!

Why can't I move my clip from Source to Timeline?

I have 1:30 clip in my Source pane with one Mark In and one Mark Out defined. When I click on it to drag it, I get the hand icon with a circle and slash indicating I cannot grab it. I am unable to drag the clip from the Source pane to the Timeline pane.

Most of the time when people cannot drag the clip or part of the clip into the timeline (despite having a sequence) is because they forgot to source patch the track.
If I am not mistaken this feature was introduces in CS6.

Quality issue when moving clips from events to project

When I drags clips or parts of clips from events to my project, the quality drops significantly (blocking).
Original clip (H264 encoded SD video) is fine, when imported into imovie it is still fine when skimmed/viewed in the event but as soon as draged into the project, the quality is bad (when skimmed/viewed in the project) and blocking occurs, especially in dark parts of the video. Of course this bad quality remains on the exported video :-(((
Any idea where this might come from and how to overcome it ?
Thx for your support

Apologies for bumping this again, but I'm getting the same issue and I'm wondering if it's the original HD files that are incompatible in imovie. It's odd that only a few of us are reporting it.
I'm capturing HD video in mov format (motion jpeg) from a panasonic FZ5 still camera. The footage has been imported via iphoto. It's 30fps - not the native uk frame rate - but I can't change this on the camara. When I edit in imovie, I get the same massive drop in quality as soon as I move an event to the timeline. Blocking especially on blocks of colour. This happens on playback from the timeline within imovie and on export. I've tried creating a project in both pal format and ntsc in case the frame rate is the issue. No joy. In Final cut the problem seems not to exist, but I'd prefer to manage these very simple home movies in imovie.
I'm now wondering whether to switch to a different still camera like the newer panasonics or sony hx5 as these capture in avchd (presumably 25/50 fps if sold in uk) and might get over the problem. any thoughts?

No more exporting clips from Source Monitor in Premiere CS6?

In Premiere CS4 I used to double click a clip on timeline (to open it in Source Monitor), and then immediately hit File>Export Media. It would then automatically selelct this specific clip for export without the need to set In and Out points. In Premiere CS6 it doesn't seem to work, meaning that if I want to export individual clips from timeline, I need to create In and Out points for each export , which is quite time consuming comparing to CS4, especially when working with many clips. I already found 2 useful features, that were just eliminated in Premiere CS6, and I don't understand why to destry something that works?!
Or is there another way to do it?

CS6 works just like CS4 did on this one.
Not in my case (I'm on Mac, maybe in Windows it's different?): in CS4 I double-click a clip in a timeline, it opens in the source monitor, and I click Export. I immediately get only this specific cut selected as a work area without any need to mark in/out, or to define work area. In CS6 just doesn't happen... Can you confirm that CS6 also does it and can you tell me your configuration and version?
