Have Desktop and Documents as favorites in Media Browser by default
When I do training, a lot for people save their media on the Desktop or in Documents. I often spend several minutes teaching people how to add Desktop or Documents folders as favorites.
It's very confusing to people that the Media Browser does not show folders the way that macOS or Windows do. The file browsers in both OS-es show shortcuts to Downloads, Documents and Desktop.
Why can't these favorites be there by default?
You know you can do it! The Rush team got it right, so do what they did.

When importing AVCHD files in Mac OSX...Premiere needs create unique MTS filenames
When importing AVCHD files from different recording sessions but part of a same project when .MTS files are dragged into a timeline and multiple timelines from different recording sessions are open at the same time...audio playback from other .MTS files in other timelines occur. This most likely happens because every .MTS is labelled with a generic number 00001.MTS. It could possibly be that Adobe Premiere has the ability to catalogue and continuously keep things organized...but when it sees multiple files with the same numbering system it's not hard to imagine it getting confused even thought the clips are in separate…
1 voteI have an AVCHD camera, that follows that naming convention; agreed, tedious.
Renaming source media files on import can cause problems with lots of formats, and is a behavior PPro avoids, whenever possible.
PPro can differentiate between files with identical names, based on their paths. But you’re right, this isn’t very obvious in the project panel (unless you’ve already set up the project panel to show paths).
Would your suggestion be to append the date/time to the project item name, associated with 00001.MTS files?

Detecting wrong framerate and sequence timecode drifting in version 14.8 & 14.9
For years, I've had issues with the sequence timecode matching up with the burn-in timecode of my videos. It's gotten worse in version 14.8 and 14.9.
When I would load in a H.264 mp4 or mov files and create a new sequence from clip, the sequence timecode would always be 1 frame off. I have been transcoding it to ProRes 422 (in Premiere) and creating a new sequence from that clip --and then timecodes would match.
But in 14.8 and 14.9, it's much worse and the timecodes are way off. I have gone back and forth with 14.7 and can…

Bug: getInsertionBin() returns root bin of wrong project
In Extendscript, we are told to use
project.getInsertionBin()
to get the root bin to useproject.importFiles()
for that project.
When there are more than 1 projects opened, the project refers to the correct project name, but getInsertionBin returns the root bin of an other opened project, which is not the one fromapp.project

.MOV files created with Apple Compressor 4.4.8 won't import in PP2019 or PP2020
I've recently been encountering strange issues when Importing .MOV files into Premiere 2019 or 2020, where I'd get a "File Import Failure: We were unable to open the file on disk" error. The error also occurs in After Effects, with the same files.
The files import or open without issues in every other video application I tried (DaVinci Resolve, Quicktime Player, Screen (Videovillage.co), VLC, IINA, Telestream Switch Pro & FCP-X).
After a bit of sleuthing, I figured out that the problem only occurs with .MOV files that were specifically transcoded out of Apple Compressor 4.4.8 (which is the latest version…

R3D files in Premiere Pro 2021 has different color science and gamma curve upon import, doesnt match in camera look.
R3D files in Premiere Pro 2021 has different color science and gamma curve upon import, doesnt match in camera look. Had to roll back to 14.5 where it still works. Please update in latest builds too. Otherwise each individual import needs to be adjust with tedious color correction tools in Source Clip Effects in Effect Controls. Thanks

Mini DV Tape Capture reinstatement
I have a catalogue of home movies captured on Mini DV tapes. I was able to use Premiere version 13 to capture the footage and import for editing. The latest Premiere version only allows HDV capture via camcorder tape. I note a workaround is to use quicktime and then import but this is very clumsy or use a third party software e.g. LifeFlix....I have an old mac and was seeking to download version 13 of premiere but note these links are not available.

Improve Media Browser NOW!!!
Media Browser is awful - to the point that I spent $300 on Davinci Resolve JUST to get a working media browser. I capture clips at 400Mbps which results in very large files. When editing I only want to capture the good takes from SD to my storage drive. So I need to view them. But Media Browser refreshes every second, which means I lose my place and have to scroll down over and over and over. At some point Media Browser will refresh before I get back to where I was. Also, the clip preview performance is very sluggish.…

Actually for Rush, but that wasn't an option - Font Import for Android
It's not always practical to take your laptop with you but you still need to edit stuff together. So Rush exists.
Android devices come with SFA in the way of fonts, and most of the 3rd party font installers are garbage. Adding a font import feature that allows people to use OTF and TTF fonts on an Android device will really customers that would like to maintain style guide consistencyfor their videos when they don't have access to a desktop.1 vote -
Automatic Linking from Hard Drive To Bin
Hello, It would be great if there was a way to link folders on a computer or hard drive to bins in Premiere. That way, if I copied a photo or video clip into my folder on my hard drive labeled "Day 1_Footage" (for example) then it would be great if (assuming I already imported that folder from my hard drive into my Premiere project window as a new bin) that footage or photo automatically imported into that given bin. If I add a new photo into my hard drive folder titled "Photos" then it would automatically update the bin…

Add 90degree batch rotation for importing vertical shot videos
Videos shot vertically on DSLR cameras are recorded as 16:9 ratio. When imported to premiere, they display 90degrees sideways. There needs to be a way to simply batch rotate these videos 90 degrees to 9:16 ratio.

Bug import images
Bug: Incorrect preview even though the images are distinct
To reproduce this bug, export the photograph that is subdivided into grids via Illustrator, then import the exported images to Premiere Pro. The imported images all appear the same even though they should be from different parts of the photo grid.

Imported Clips from a C300 Mark II and C200 and they are all named "CLIPS001"
Went to the Media Browser, clicked the root folder that held the "CONTENTS" folder, and context-menu'd "Import" and every clip is named "CLIPS001". This did not happen with the previous version, just this new Premiere 2020.

I'm hoping we can get DV capture back in premier.
I know this is an old option. But as a documentary film maker. I come across a lot of old footage on DV tape thats needs to be imported as I have read many others need. When Apple decided to drop USB & SD card readers on their laptops in 2016 it was a huge mistake. Now in 2021 they are bringing it back to the new IMac. The DV import option is still needed and will be for some time to come. Final Cut & I Movie still has it. Why not Adobe?

Importing HDV MPEG-TS files broken in new Premiere V15
At our TV station We have several Windows 10 editing systems and they recently updated to the new premiere V15 release and now our old collection of thousands of HDV MPEG-TS files from Sony HVR-Z1U cameras no longer work in premiere. They Import and just show the "media pending" picture until you click on one and try to navigate it and then the error log says:
"Frame substitution recursion attempt aborting after multiple attempts on file"
This happens on every machine that was updated.
This happens in premiere, after effects and media encoder

Ich bin genervt: das neue Premiere Pro 2021 hat echte Probleme beim Import von Videos
Ein Projekt, bei dem verschiedene Personen mit ihren digitalen Endgeräten etwas aufgenommen haben, drohte zu scheitern, weil Premiere Pro 2021 nur die Audiodateien nahm. Zum Glück hatte ich auf einem alten Rechner eine alte Version (14.9.) Da hatte ich null Probleme beim Import. Leute, das kann doch nicht sein!? Ich kündige, wenn das nicht besser wird!!!! Ich bin bei meinen Projekten darauf angewiesen, dass mein Schneideprogramm mit verschiedenen Formaten klar kommt (deswegen unter anderem bezahle ich GELD!!!!!!!)
