.MTS media in ‘Private’ file on SDCard will not relink in Premiere Pro CC
Hi CC,
A colleague has made a project in Premiere Pro CC. He input his media from an SDcard. Other assets relink fine but the .MTS will not relink as it is in ‘Private’ on the SDcard!!!
The .MTS media resides inside the ‘Private’ ‘Package Contents’ I can route down to the media thru AVCHD/BDMV/STREAM where I find the 00000.MTS media Premiere is trying to relink to.
If I copy all this media into a new folder on a drive I can then redirect Premiere Pro CC to the files. I can see the files in the Locate file window but each file fails to show a thumbnail and reports ‘processing….’ When I click on OK it reports error File format not supported!!!
There are 60 small clips I hope I won’t have to rebuild this project manually by transcoding all the .MTS files to Prores.
Please help!
thanks Pete

By clicking on the relevant .MTS clip in the Locate window and then clicking OK the media does relink with all it’s friends too!
That was lucky!!

Pete, can you help?
I have the problem – all the mts files are offline after foolishly moving the root “Private” file during a project. I’ve tried to follow your steps above but don’t know how to follow them to relink these mts files. Hours of work at stake here. How do I find the locate window you’re talking about? Not sure what you’re describing. I can’t drill down past the ‘private’ file to get to the mts files to relink them
Thanks for any help,

If you right click on the private file you can see a subfolder. Then right click again… and again… again …. etc and you will find your clips folder.
But Aftereffects is looking for the full path to relink other colleagues in your project. So this doesn’t help you relink all the files.
It is not intuitive; but if you simply click on the recognisable clip name and then click ok then all the media relinks!
