  • Copy between TWO different projects in PREMIERE CS3

    Posted by Alejandro Sole on May 17, 2008 at 5:53 pm

    Ok, I’m in a deadline so I’m going to ask this question that’s probably in a forum already… I copied and pasted a clip from proj A to proj B. that was ok it worked with a simple copy-paste. then I tried to copy-paste OTHER clip, and lost the audio from the first clip. I can copy sequences with the same copy-paste, but whenever I try to copy a second item I lose the previous audio. why? how can i solve this? I really don’t want to import any projects… thanks to anyone who answers… =D

    I don’t know why it happens, it does not happen to me. However, if you don’t want to import the entire project, make a copy and delete everything except what you want to import. Then do the job.

    Bingo!

    Mojo, find the source footage that is cauding you the problem in your project window and right click and select Interpret Footage and OK it. This should re-align the lost audio with the source and will update all the lost audio on the timeline.

    GET IT!

    Worked for me, hope it works for you.

    After hours of dealing with the same problem and searching out the web, I tried this and had success! Finally. I encountered this problem with Premiere CS4.

    First, quit Adobe Premiere. Next drill down into your project’s “Adobe Premiere Pro Preview Files” (media cache) folder and delete the “.pek” and “.cfa” files in the associated project(s). These seem to get corrupted more often than they should and are frequently the cause of audio that won’t play back. Then restart Premiere. Once you reopen your project, these cache files will automatically be rebuilt. Let Premiere finish this task (shouldn’t take long at all), and then check those clips. About 99.9% of the time, the audio and waveforms will be back.

    “interpret footage” doesn’t work on a song.

    In this case:

    1) make sure to select the TRACK that the affected CLIP is on.

    2) move the cursor over the affected CLIP.

    3) hit the “M” key.

    Done. Waveform and audio is back.

    Jake,

    Thanks for giving a cogent, straight answer to a straight question. Worked a treat!!!

    It has driven me mad not knowing how to resolve this problem and driven me mad when asking this question on various forums and getting NON answers and waffling that resolves NOTHING.

    Excellent!

    Cheers

    Ciro

    P.S. to others with this problem – it WORKS!!
