  • Duplicating Sequences frequently crashes Premiere

    Hi There,

    One of the most common occurrences of Premiere 5.5.2 crashing in my experience comes when I duplicate a sequence. I had 3 crashes yesterday, all reported, when I was duplicating a sequence to create a new version. Sony xdcam ex footage, no filters or graphics. Is this a known issue that will be corrected in CS6? I get very tense whenever duplicating a sequence, haha.

    I’m working with a 2010 Mac Pro and using a Blackmagic sequence.

    Thanks!

    Gerry

    Try duplicating sequences in a non BM sequence, see if it still will crash.

    I have duplicated many EX sequences with no problem. I too wonder if it is a BM problem.

    BM, AJA and Matrox Sequences are all unstable if you ask me, hence why a lot of us have giving up on output devices until CS6.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for all your replies!

    It ran the following day without any crashes on the BM sequence. I’ll just keep my fingers crossed this will improve in CS6, which, according to the Adobe website, is supposed to ship to me tomorrow, or June, or whatever the official release date is that isn’t posted anywhere. 🙂

    Cheers,

    Gerry

    When you get CS6 create a new regular adobe sequence that matches your clips. Copy and paste your clips from the old to the new. Should solve your problems if they are related to the old BM sequences
