This has not been fixed even though Adobe has claimed to fix this.

I have the media in one master project. My assistant has a their shared project. I open a small sequence from that project and drag the media from it it into my main project. EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY HAVE ALL THE MEDIA, I STILL GET DUPLICATED MEDIA. And on top of that it creates a separate folder for each small clip of footage. Take a look at the attached screenshot.

This is horrible. Fix this asap please. What's the point of shared projects if we can't move media back and forth between them?

We're working on animation movies, and more specifically editing a feature film. We have 1600+ shots in this movie, that are all rendered to image sequences in various 3rd party software.

We need an efficiant way to import the shots into Premiere. Right now, there's no way to batch import the sequence. We should at least be able to drag & drop folders containing image sequences and have them imported all at once.

A dialogue box upon import should ask us if we want to import the folders content as image sequences, and maybe even let us define the framerate at that point (this would be nice).

Right now, the only way to import sequence is to use the import dialogue and go through each and every folder and select the first image and check "image sequence").

This is not feasible on very large project. Thanks!

Hello, have problems with import files "The compression type is not supported". With CC 2018 it worked smoothly. Nasty are from the Mavic 2 pro:

It occurs in about 60 percent of this file type.

What can I do?

Just like you can re-link a file to one with different timecode than the version in the project, you should be able to re-link a clip to a file with different audio channels than the original. Just like with TC, if there is 4 channels in original clip and one user wants to use only has 2 channels, the slash marks simply appear in channels 3 and 4.

Sure, warn the user, but sometimes this is just nessecary when a mistake was made in transcode... or you're relinking to colored files, and colorist didn't export with 4 audio tracks (and you're not even using the audio from original files because that one is coming from mixer...) Trust the user to relink to the clip they want.

Just like you can re-link a file to one with different timecode than the version in the project, you should be able to link a proxy file to a master clip with different audio channels than the original. Just like with TC, if there is 4 channels in original clip and proxy clip only has 2 channels, the slash marks simply appear in channels 3 and 4.

THIS IS IMPORTANT because the H.264 spec only supports 2 channels. ALMOST ALL CAMERAS shoot with 4 channels. H264 is IDEAL proxy format if you're taking project to edit mobile (ie to the beach) or especially to transfer online to an assistant. So, effectively, this restriction does not allow h.264 proxies to be used, which is dumb.

I'd love it if there were a keyboard shortcut to update my imported folders to add media that is now in the folders that wasn't previously in there during the previous import.

I oftentimes add files into a project and have a file structure implemented physically on my computer. I start a project and do an initial import with the media that I currently have (which includes the all important file structure) As I continue the project, I need a pieces of media here and there, so I create it and save it on my computer in the folder that I want it to show up in. But then I have to drag and drop that specific file into premiere into the place that I want it to go. This makes me organize it twice and I would love a keyboard shortcut or simply a menu item that would automatically update the bins in Premiere to include the files that are in Finder.

I've been given a drive with a Footage folder, within which are six subfolders for each shoot day. Each folder contains Sony F7 footage from one or more cards, but the folders are not set up identically. Some have the data as expected, some have that nested within an XDROOT folder, and others have multiple cards, within which are the XDROOT folders. But at the bottom level, each folder structure is identical. However, when I either Import or drag and drop the Footage folder into Premiere, all the footage is lumped into one Footage folder, but one folder 'Day 4' remains. This is totally counter-intuitive and completely unhelpful and it makes it completely unclear where the footage has come from. I suggest you do whatever it takes to exactly mirror the structure on the drive. Screenshots to explain:

This is the first time I am experiencing this with premiere (I work on Mac and I have installed all the latest updates of Premiere Pro CC2019):

Let's say I want to make a video out of 10 images. I import the images create my sequence, finish with my editing -with everything working fine- and I save my project and close premiere. Without any change to my initial 10 images, I reopen the premiere project and I see everything the way I left it (no red lines, warnings etc) BUT the initial 10 images (although I don't get the message of missing media) are not the same that I loaded in the first place. I only can see 2 of them repeated (For example img1, img2, img3, img4 are all img1 in the preview like I have imported 4 times the same image with a different name). This is super weird. Any ideas why this is happening?

Also: When I try to replace the footage and choose the images I had first imported and edited, the preview is black and I can see the image I imported only at the parts on my sequence where I have placed a video transition. This is getting weirder...
