Premiere Pro CC won't read media source timecode?
We recently switched over some of our editing systems to Premiere Pro CC, but for some reason Premiere Pro CC isn't reading the timecode from our source footage. It works fine in CS6 and CS5, but on each of the CC systems, even though the timecode preference is set to "Use Media Source" the timecode that is displayed in the project window, the source window and even in the timeline with a timecode window effect added and set to media, the time code that is displayed starts from 0 as though it's set for "generate" or in preferences, "Start From 00:00:00:00."
All of our source footage is recorded on XDCam or DVCPro 100 and we've been using Premiere since CS5 without issue. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Can you upload a short clip somewhere for us to take a look at?
BTW, exactly which version of CC are you on?

CS4 Premiere Pro Clips Won't Play in Source Monitor/Program Monitor
I can't get clips to play in source monitor/program monitor/preview pane in Pr Pro. I have spent hours looking through the forums to try and find a fix and I have troubleshot the following.....
1. Codecs are not broken... or seem to be working according to Sherlock
2. Video and audio drivers up to date
3. Unistalled and re-install Pr Pro then updated via updater
Here is the funny thing...
In Encore, OnLocation, and other Suite program the play functionality works just fine....the only one it doesn't is Pr Pro.
Question:
Is the source code to playback video in Pr different then the other suite programs or am I just making a trivial mistake in Pr?
Sorry for the novice question but I am about to give up and have no where to turn.
Hardware Specs
CPU 3.6 GHz
HD 1TB 7200 RPM
RAM 2 MB (is this my issue?)
Video: Open GLNumber of issues here:
1. Your system does not meet minimum requirements.
2. Your CPU, disks, memory are not enough for anything other than DV.
3. What video camera was used with what codec on what OS with which version of PR. etc.
Some suggestions... and answer at least the 16 questions at the end of the Wiki article. -
We have an issue when we send a film to the media encoder it crashes about half of the time for no particular reason. Anyone else got that too with Premiere Pro CC and the new Media encoder?

Premiere Pro CC crashes when importing media.
Premiere Pro CC crashes when importing media. Every time. Driving me crazy.
It crashes as soon as the Windows dialogue box comes up.
Does it in new projects and in a project I created and imported into just fine 2 days ago.
Have rebooted.
Running Windows 8.1 on Samsung Series 5 ultrabook Intel i5 - not too sure what else to say about other settings:
I did have a problem the other day when Windows was crashing when browing a large folder of largish images and video clips but it went away when I put images and videos in separate folders.Thanks for reply.
Point taken but I've been using it for over a year for simple edits (5 min films) in PPCC just fine. Can't even do what I could do the other night now.
Simple folder with a few jpegs and movies in it. In fact it just crashes before I even got to another folder. -

Premiere Pro trial won't download and it isn't listed in my creative cloud. It is frustrating... it says it is downloading but it makes creative cloud pop up and I then can't find it listed . I just want the trial. I have done trouble shooting on cchromeand on my computer.
See if your machine meets the system requirements for the software. CC will not list applications that will not work with the system.

My Macbook Pro suddenly won't read my hard drive.
My Macbook Pro suddenly won't read my 750GB WD Elements Hard drive.
It was working earlier today but when I went to press play on my TV show in VLC it said the files couldn't be read. So i reopended them all and they still didn't work. I closed down all programs running that could possibly be using my hard drive but it said it was being used so I force ejected it and when I plugged it back in it didn't work.
It comes up with an error message "this disk can't be read by this computer" but it still shows up in disk utility. In disk utility though it says it is a 2.2TB hard drive which confuses me. also I the buttons for "verify disk" and "repair disk" are greyed out.
Is there something that I can do to try and get my hard drive working again?krowl13 wrote:

If I'm not mistaken, this drive is bus-powered. MBPs seem to have frequent problems with bus-powered drives, probably because they don't provide enough power on the USB bus.
In disk utility though it says it is a 2.2TB hard drive
It is possible that the drive or USB interface are damaged. However, it is too early to decide. You need to connect the drive to a desktop machine (Mac or PC), or provide more power to the drive (with a power supply, if the drive accepts it, or a USB Y-cable and a USB power supply, rated 1A or more). -
After download and installation, InDesign, Flash, Dreamweaver and Premiere Pro all won't fully launch. From the Windows icon pane, I click on the program, it opens the Sign In Required pane, I sign in, it opens the Thank You pane and reverts back to Sign In pane or never opens the program.
Acrobat also keeps giving me a popup to sign in, each time I look at a .pdf file.
I have tried uninstalling Acrobat and then redownloading. It didn't work.

There has never been a history of Adobe CS3 installation on the brand new MAC Pro I am using prior to installing Master Collection CS4, despite other posts claiming that chief cause of this issue is a previous CS3, Beta or trial installations of previous versions. I simply had a straightforward installation of CS4 and have had trouble since day 1.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Master CS4 three times, two times with the action script cleaner for CS4. I tried changing Adobe Cache folder locations to alternative drives. I ran shift start many times to correct any inconsistencies and corrected for permissions using disk utilities repeatedly. All updates have been installed and I am still getting the same error when exporting my timeline to Media Encoder CS4, be it a large High Definition project or a small one consisting of few stills.
No matter what presets I chose, the job appears as one of the items in the render qeuee of Media Encoder CS4 and sits there with the status WAITING until i hit Start Queue. When I do, it still says WAITING under Status and at the bottom corner of the window it reads : Loading "project name.prproj" and after an average of about 6 minutes, a yellow caution sign appears. No render whatsoever takes place. When I click on the yellow caution sign, it reads a log of all errors in connection with each job, including the ones that have gone before it. Here is one:

Please any gurus out there know how to troubleshoot this damn thing on Mac, I really appreciate it. I have not yet encountered any posts of Mac owners with no previous CS3 installation having this issue. I am in the middle of 3 projects with tight deadlines and need your urgent help. THANK YOU!Hello There,
I resolved the issue through a simple process of elimination. So simple in fact I wonder how I missed it. Since there has been no history of prior CS3 installation on this machine and every conceivable trick was applied to resolve the problem (refer to my original post earlier in the thread) ending in frustration, the problem had to reside in a factor or series of factors that were only present in this machine. Of the two remaining causes different in compare to other machines, I had to look into the possibility of any hardware and/or software conflicts. After all, this very same installation works perfectly fine on my colleague's Apple Macbook Pro and several Windows machines.
It turns out that I had installed Pro Tools on this machine that comes with all kinds of optional plug-ins in the so called ignition pack. One of these optional plug-ins is called IZOTOPE (three varieties include Spectron, Trash and another one that escapes my mind). They were all lite version licenses that would automatically pop up on their own when you would start a program where they had been residing. One such program where an association existed was indeed the Premiere. An annoying dialogue box directing you to buy the full version when you would start the premiere would refuse to go away. Sometimes it would even start on its own culminating in a a permanent dialogue box.
The cause of the problem was right before my eyes and I had overlooked it. Once uninstalled using IZOTOPE clean uninstaller on step 4, the problem was resolved. Projects are now loading very fast into the AME and encoding begins in earnest. I have never had any issues ever since.
Long story short, if you have any plug-ins specially the ones that are loading upon the start of any program or the ones that reside inside the premiere or the ones that start on their own independently, they could be one of the highly probable causes of this error. I have seen other similar posts complaining of plug in folders inside premiere that needed to be moved to resolve the issue for instance the ones that needed to be moved to AE folders. If you are a plug-in admirer, I would suggest to look into them seriously.
On the side note, many combination and causes may lead to the same error. I am not claiming that this is the solution for everyone.
It must also be noted that I applied the trick of creating a shortcut of Premiere (and naming it exactly as such) and dropped it into the Adobe Dynamic LInk folder (even though this was suggested for windows)and have changed the adobe Cache locations to an alternative folder on a separate drive. I haven't been able to establish conclusively if the latter steps are also essential in fixing the error on MAC but I can confirm that since the latter steps were taken before the uninstalling of Izotope plug-ins and i still had issues, probably uninstalling those plug ins or finding a way to move them to a place where they don't interfere (if you absolutely need to keep them) is the one essential step that solved the problem.
Hope this helps. -
Premiere Pro CC won't let me relocating media on a server?
Im using premiere pro cc and i am connected to a server at work, i had the media linked before and now when i open it and i go to link the media to the file or locate the files, i can't see the server im connected to for some reason, im fully connected to the server and i can see everything using windows explorere but once i try to use premiere to link the media it doesnt load up networks.
anything i need to do to fix this or just a random bug?One suggestion I have seen is to map the networked drive as a local drive within windows explorer. It then appears to premiere as if its a physical HDD, as its just a drive letter, rather than a networked path.

Premiere Pro CS4 won't render my sequences
Everytime I send a sequence to Media Encoder, it just sits there. And sits and sits, etc. At the bottom it just says "Loading "Gleaner_Shoot.prproj".
I'm using a 2008 Mac with 8 cores with 16 gigs of ram.
My footage came from the Canon HV20. I have clips at both 24p and 1080i.
I'm setting up my sequences to match the clips I'm placing in them.
One thing of note is I'm really only using 3 looong clips. Since CS4 doesn't do scene detection well. I opted to instead make subclips from the long clips and use those. 2 of them are about 30 minutes long and one is nearly an hour. Could this be the problem?
Thing is, this happens even when I do a 1-minute sequence test.
It even happens when I try to use a test sequence which contains only audio.
I've tried outputting to quicktime and MPEG 2. I was careful to set the export settings to match the sources.
After a long wait, Media Encoder gives up and I get a warning icon in the status column. It says this:

I usually use After Effects so I'm not really up on Premiere that much, but I've used it a good bit in the past and never came across this problem.
Any ideas?Thanks. I hope I've provided enough information below.

.avi video clip audio not working in premiere pro but play is windows media player
Hi all,
Using .avi video files. They play fine in windows media player. In premiere pro, the video plays fine, but there is no audio. When moved to a sequence, it builds an audio track, but it is silent.

Hello,
I have the creative cloud suite and am trying to open premiere pro but it won't open. I've used it in the past on this same computer. What gives?Hi Alex,
I'll Show you that there are some sources of error:
1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
2, Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
3. Did you already try "uninstalling and re-installing"? Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.

Premiere Pro CC won't play audio from video file
I've been trying to edit videos recorded with Bandicam in Premiere Pro CC. The video file itself is fine, when I play it in Windows Media Player it all checks out, but once I get it into a sequence in Premiere Pro CC despite it showing the audio track, and turning the volume to max, there's no sound!

Premiere Pro CC 2014 Crashes During Media Export
Hi, I have diligently applied several of the fixes listed here:
Re: Premiere Pro CC 2014 freezes frequently and crashes
However, Premiere Pro CC crashes at about 10% of the video export -- it gets through the audio stuff as far as i can see.yeah, checked out the article.
my computer is not shutting down. premiere is crashing. the media exporter is crashing.
it gets through the audio then it crashes during the video processing.
i even tried to hit pause every 2 seconds.
a test exports fine from premiere 6.0, but i am concerned that 6.0 might crash if i rebuild the whole project.
hmm i have an idea.
obviously i would much rather the software worked.
