  • 7.2.1 bug? Merged clips using Insert/Overwrite are not linked

    Posted by David Wulzen on January 26, 2014 at 8:04 pm

    Hi all-

    I know that merged clips have always had some bugs in Premiere, so I’m not sure if this is one of them, or if I am just overlooking something.

    I recently upgraded to 7.2.1, and while some of the issues with merged clips were resolved, some other new ones seemed to pop up.

    One in particular is when I use the insert or overwrite commands (either the keyboard shortcut, or the buttons in the source window), my merged clip comes into the timeline unlinked – the video and each of the audio channels are all independent of each other. But if I drag the clip into the timeline from the source window, it comes in linked just fine. The latter isn’t entirely preferable, especially when patching certain audio channels to go to to certain tracks (among other things).

    Has anyone run into a similar issue? Any insight would be much appreciated! Thanks!

    Yup. Same issue.

    We had an Adobe rep come out to our office last week and we showed him this bug. It’s been reported… But you should definitely file a bug report just incase.

    Also having some sketchy issues with Subclips reimported into a new project. They don’t play in the Source monitor, but when you drag them down to the timeline they work after reconfiguring audio channels.

    Seems like merged media and sub clips were sort of overlooked in this last release.

    Thanks for the response Al, glad to know I’m not crazy! I will say that even though there are new bugs with merged clips, I’m happy that they addressed at least a few of the older ones, like actually having match frame work the way it is supposed to.

    I’ll make sure to report the bug as well.

    Thanks again!

    So I am having this problem too… And it’s been 5 months since the last post. Any idea if it’ll be fixed any time soon?
