Premiere Pro CC 2014: Nudging audio causes program hang on Mac

Running latest PPro on OSX 10.8.5 with Quad Xeon processors, 12GB ram and ATI Radeon HD5770. Running into a frustrating problem where if I nudge the audio of a clip (either linked camera audio or unlinked wild sound) about 40% of the time PPro hangs and has to be force stopped. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

I would be willing to bet the video is recorded as VFR, variable frame rate ... in other words, it creates more frames per second when it needs to for keeping up with screen changes, and less when it doesn't see much changing on your screen. This saves bandwidth of course, BUT ... PrPro is not setup to work well with VFR footage, it really needs CFR, constant FR. So ... highly recommended if your capture program doesn't allow setting CFR is the free program "Handbrake", which you can google for. Use that to convert the footage to CFR, then import that into PrPro.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 QuickTime Audio and Video Syncing problem

Hi everyone,
I am having and issue when I import QuickTime video into Premiere Pro CC 2014. I've just started doing some editing so I am very new to all of this. I recorded video in Photo Booth on my mac. I exported the file to a .mov file and imported it in to Premiere. When I play the file in premiere everything is fine up until halfway through the video. The video starts to play faster than the audio and everything is off. When I play the video in QuickTime everything is fine. I don't know if I did something wrong when I imported the file but I am hoping for some help. Thank you.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 Synchronize audio deletes audio track

I have a 2 camera shoot that has a clapper slate marker before each take. I recently tried to use the synchronize function in PP2014 to align the camera takes. This didn't work, in fact it deleted one tracks audio and gave an offset number to the video track who's audio had just been deleted. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if I am doing something wrong? My current system is a Mac Pro, OS 10.9.4 and I am running Premiere Pro CC2014 vers 8.0.1. Attached are photos of the process I used.
Option selected the two audio tracks
Right click, select Synchronize
Select the audio channel to sync to
Processes away
The result: audio channel 1 has been deleted, and an offset marker added to video track 1. Video tracks are still not in sync.
So any insight to what I am doing wrong or if it is a software issue would be appreciated.
Thanks

I'm not experiencing this exact issue -- but have noticed that synchronizing clips in the timeline seems to have gotten worse in the 2014 update. It used to be that I could synchronize 2 cameras, plus audio from an external recorder, and Premiere would do it successfully about 95% of the time.
Now Premiere 2014 (8.0.1) seems be having a lot of trouble with the same task, often taking one of the camera angles and moving it way down the timeline for seemingly no reason.

Problems with Mac Mini and Premiere Pro CC 2014

I am new to video editing with a background in graphic design and typically do short corporate videos.
I am currently using a Mac Mini (late 2012 model), running Mavericks 10.9.5. And I keep having a problem with Premiere Pro CC 2014 freezing in the program monitor, while scrubbing through the timeline.
Here are my specs:
Processor: 2.6 GHz Intel Quad Core i7
Memory: 16 GB
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024MB
I am also using a 2TB Fantom G-Force Megadisk external HD to store all my media. It is connected via a Firewire 800 cable
I'm wondering if the freezing is caused by Mac Mini having a integrated graphics card vs. a discreet one. Has anyone else had any problems like this using a Mac Mini?

Can't Move Audio Clips in Timeline After Expanding to View Waveforms (Premiere Pro CC 2014.2)

So, this seems to be a bit of a weird one, and I'd be pretty stoked if it ended up being something silly that I'm doing wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what that might be.
As the title suggests, I can't use the mouse to move some audio clips in a timeline once I expand the track to view the waveforms. This appears to only happen with independent audio clips (WAV. AIFF, MP3, etc), and not with clips attached to video. Also, it's worth noting that I don't have track keyframes turned on. I was hoping that was it, but it wasn't.
So, what happens is this:
1) I drag an audio clip down to the timeline (I can drag it onto an existing track, or drag to the bottom of the sequence and create a new track. Neither option seems to get a different result.).
2) So long as the track isn't expanded and the waveform isn't visible, I can move the clip left, right, or up and down to a different track.
3) As soon as I expand the track to view the waveform this functionality goes out the window. When this issue happens I can use the keyboard to nudge left and right, but that's about all the movement I have.
4) It's almost as though the track becomes corrupt. The lanes for the track don't redraw properly, and the track is pretty much unusable. I can't put anything into it, and I can't take anything out. All I can do is delete the track and start again.
Complicating issues is that this doesn't always happen, but instead is one of those "vast majority of the time" issues. I can't see any rhyme or reason for why it works or doesn't. I seem to do the exact same thing, but occasionally get different results. It doesn't matter what type of file I'm using (WAV, AIFF, etc), and this only happens with independent audio clips.
Once again, I don't have track keyframing turned on when this happens. Believe me, I wish that was it.
I have already filed a couple of bug reports about this over the last month or so, but haven't heard anything yet. I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issue, and if so, whether they had any workarounds.
Mandatory system info:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 (64-Bit)
Intel i7-3820
32GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 980 (350.12)
Premiere Pro CC 2014.2

Update:
I was just looking to post a screenshot of the timeline when I discovered something interesting. As soon as I use the vertical scroll bar to the right of the sequence, the tracks start to work again. Close off the waveform and the clip goes haywire. Move the scroll bar a tiny bit (or a lot), and suddenly the clip starts working.
Pretty bizarre.
The good news is that for the time being that could be a workaround, though it would be great for this to not happen at all.

Why is Dynamic Link between Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014 not syncing audio changes?

When I try to use a Dyamic Link between something I've cut in Premiere and a composition in After Effects, if it is simply an audio level change it will not update in AE. Only if I alter the Video track does it then take the changes reflected. Any suggestions as to what is causing this?
Running Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014.

As Dave alludes, AfterEffects is all about the visual changes ... or at least, mostly. For changes to the audio outside of PrPro's internal controls, highly suggested you use Audition instead. It is all about the sound ... and yes, will update PrPro when used correctly.

Premiere pro CC (2014) problems with audio on .mts files

Hi,
This is a recent problem I have been having when trying to play certain clips in Premiere Pro CC (2014), I import the entire private folder and some of the clips play as normal and others seem to have skipping audio. This causes the second half of the clip to not have any audio in it at all because it is bunched up at the beginning. I don't even know where to start with trying to fix the problem, the only thing I have done is re import the files and put them in new folders to change the destination it has been imported from.
Any advice would be extremely helpful as it is mostly stopping me from getting on with any work,
Thanks!

Hi amber1992,
I will suggest you to go ahead and clean the Media cache and Media cache files folders manually.
MAC OS: Click on Go menu>Go to Folders>type ~/Library and click ok. This will open User Library folder and then navigate to Application Support>Adobe>Common>Media Cache and Media Cache files. Delete all the files from these folders.
Windows: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common or you can Click on Start button and in search type %appdata% and open Roaming folder>Adobe>Common>Media Cache and Media Cache files.
Once done launch the project again and check.
Regards,
Vinay

Premiere Pro CC 2014 - audio frame repeating while scrubbing

In 2014 and CC, I often run into an issue where an audio frame will repeat while scrubbing. It stops when I hit play or move the cursor to another part of the timeline. Obviously, this makes audio editing a nightmare. I've checked all the settings and I'm at a complete loss. I've unchecked "maintain pitch while shuttling", but the problem persists. Is there something I'm missing?
I've searched the forum, but haven't found any answers. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

No third party codecs

Apparently this only happens when holding down the next or previous frame keys. Individual clicks don't seem to cause the repeated frame.

Audio-Problem with Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 by using long Clips in AVC-Intra Codec (4Gb Border)

Hello
We own a Panasonic camera (AJ-PX5000G) and we film in 1080p50 with the AVC-Intra100 Codec. When importing longer clips in Premiere Pro, the video is fully loaded, but the waveform of the sound ends at the Time Code 00:02:28:35.
Sometimes the sound could be played after this Timecode but otherwise there is no audio. Even if we use the same clip several times we see that it works sometimes and sometimes not. It looks random.
We also tried to import the Clips with Adobe Prelude directly from the P2-Card but there are the same problems.
The Clips in 1080p50 AVC-Intra100 have a bitrate of 227Mbps. After 2 Minutes and 28 Seconds 4Gb are written on the P2-Card and the Camera starts a new picture file and 4 sound files..
It looks like Adobe Premiere Pro has problems with the correct relation of the files that all get together to one clip.
Is there anybody who can confirm this problem? Can anybody help me with this Premiere Problem?

When clicking an audio clip on the timeline in Premiere Pro CC 2014, it duplicates it on a different track and makes it impossible to work.

I'm experiencing a disturbing issue as it actually prevents me to do the work in Premiere. I will put as much info as possible:
1) Project started on a different computer (the editor), PC with Premiere Pro CC,
2) Now opened on my Imac with Premiere Pro CC 2014,
3) I am not editing, simply trying to move audio clips on different tracks to export audio tracks only,
THE ISSUE:
1) Here is my timeline:
2) When I select an audio clip to highlight it, Premiere creates a duplicate on a different track:
Note that the clip highlighted in the previous screen cap is the duplicate and I didn't click it, Premiere highlights it as soon as it is duplicated.
3) When I click out of the timeline or scroll up or down on the timeline, the duplicates disappear. However, when I try to move the original clips, it doesn't do anything, they are stuck in place.
ANTICIPATED ANSWERS:
1) You work on 2 different computers with 2 different versions of Premiere Pro CC, what do you expect? --> The amazing thing about Adobe CC is that it shouldn't be an issue and now I have to deal with it in this way,
2) Try and save an updated version of your project from your computer. --> Already done that.
Thank you for your help. I usually use the customer support chat but I am on the other side of the globe and it is now closed. This issue prevents me to work so I need to solve it quickly.
Kind regards,
Aurelien

This sounds to me like it could be a graphics related problem are you on the latest driver. Something else you could try, start a new project and import the one from the PC into that rather than directly opening it in the MAC

Rendering white flicker on the program monitor and output video file. How to get rid of this flicker in adobe premiere pro cc 2014?

Hello,
I have been working with long sequences in adobe premiere pro cc 2014. All of sudden, I see white flicker in the program monitor and rendered output too. The flicker does not follow any pattern. It is very random.
How to work around on this?
Regards
Naveen Alle

Concurrently working on the same project it requires a specific implementation in all editing programs like Avid's Unity/ ISIS shared storage. That's what you are simply not considering. none of your issues would be any problem if your projects resided on a commonly accessed server or something like that. Check respective hardware solutions.

I am unable to change the preferences on my Premiere Pro CC 2014 program...Please help!

Hello, I use Premiere Pro CC 2014 on my Mac Computer. I am unable to change the settings in the preference of Premiere Pro. When I change a setting and click "OK" Premiere doesn't respond. I can click cancel and the window closes, but when I click ok the window does not close. Since Premiere doesn't respond when I click ok, any setting that I have changed remains the same. I tried reinstalling the program, but after the installation I still have the same issues. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi,
What preferences exactly? Are you trying to change them under Premiere > Preferences? What OS are you on? Can you please attach a screenshot?
Thanks,
Rameez

Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 crashes frequently when switching between programs

I've started to frequent program crashes in Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 in Mac OS 10.10.3 on my 2013 Mac Pro. The issue occurs when I switch from another program, say word or Adobe Audion back to Premiere Pro. I get the 'we're sorry' dialogue box and the application crashes. About 50% of the time when this happens - when I reopen the application it crashes again - and then on the 2nd re-open it's successful. It's really hampering my workflow to worry about a crash every time I move into AE or Audition. I've uninstalled all plugins, uninstalled and re-installed PP, cleared the media cache, and reset preferences. Still happening every day on this machine. FYI i have a 2013 iMac running the same OS which has been opening the same project files without this issue - so it seems like it's specific to this machine for some reason...

Hi,
I would suggest the following steps:

Audio Gain Crash - Premiere Pro CC 2014

Working in Premiere Pro CC 2014 I'm experiencing an instant crash when using the Audio Gain function on a clip or any selection of multiple clips in a sequence. The clip(s) in question come from a TASCAM DR-100 audio recorder I've used dozens of times without issue.
ASUS G75
Windows 7, 64-bit
Intel i7-3630qm
16GB RAM
NVIDIA GTX-670MX

I found it strange that this was happening only on two of my sequences (timelines) in the project, while other sequences have no issue with Audio Gain. It's either the sequence, or one-or-more clips—not Premiere, right? First, I ran CCleaner and re-launched Premiere. Clearing system crud with CCleaner seems to have aleviated the problem for *some* of the clips. I could now perform Audio Gain functions on some of the clips.
So my next thought: Clean the Media Cache in Premiere. I tried that next. When I re-launched Premiere and the conform process begain to do it's thing, building new files. When it was done, ALL of my clips could be selected and Audio Gain performed. SUCCESS! The answer to Audio Gain crashing Premiere Pro, in my case, was to clean the media cache.
Interestingly, that's not the end of the story; there's still some funky issue with one single audio clip in this sequence. But since the Audio Gain crash isn't happening anymore, I'll present the new issue in a new thread.
