[leslie barker] “I exported it again then imported it into encore and previewed it and it still cuts off the 1st picture.”
Most likely En is still using the old asset in some way. There are a couple of possibilities as to why. Did you ever transcode the Pr asset in En, either through trying to build the disc or by performing a “Transcode Now” operation? If so, then En is still using the transcoded version of the old asset. Use File>Revert to Original to tell En to stop using the transcoded version.
Did you export from Pr and use the same name for the exported file that you had used before? That’s a bad organizational idea, and may ultimately cause fatal errors in Encore. Export a new file from Pr and then go into En and use the File>Replace Asset command to make En use the new asset. I think Replace Asset was available in 1.5, but if not, then just delete the asset from its timeline and put the new one in its place.
