bug in premiere pro
I have allready sent long time ago this problem to ADOBE support but the only answer was…..nothing!
It was existing in 1.5 and still in 2….I’m working in HDCAM uncompress… and for long films… 45 to 90 minutes, this means a lot of footage (about 40 Tb of HD) and big files.
In professional movie you often don’t capture the sound on the camera. This means that when you log your daylies you want only to log the video…. and here start the problem.
Everytime you go in the capture windows you HAVE to recheck the “video only” option, it doesn’t stay “video only” if you quite the capture and come back in it.This seams a very small problem to ADOBE but let me tell you what it really gives to a big production in HD.
First if you or one of your assistant log the daylies and forget to put “video only” then you will get bigger “audio video” files…
If you want to recapture the files logged with “video only” option then it is not possible…..the only way is to relog all the files….. thanks for the detail!Also if you started editting with those “audio video” files then you will not be abble to change those files for “video only” files…
Another problem when you have a lot of HD “audio video” files to load in a new project is that premiere will “conform” all the audio of those files…. on a huge project this can takes hours.
When does Adobe will change that? it was good in 6.5 ….

I’ve done that, but in reverse… I’m doing broll, turn the audio off, go to interview segs, and forget to turn it back on. While yes, it is a pain, it was always my oops. The way I found to get around it was once it was done, go in, delete the media files from the project window, but keep the unbatched file. Right click it, go to properties, and click on audio. It’s a workaround for after the problem has occurred, I understand, and it’s not quite what you’re looking for, but it does help. Then just rebatch. No re-logging or anything necessary.
Thanks for reading!

Thanks Kevin,
The problem is when you have hundreds of files….that’s a real pain. and also it scan only work one way from “non audio” to “audio video”.
The saddest thing is that I’m sure that for Adobe it would be very simple to sort that out. …It was possible in 6.5…..best regards
