Premiere Offline Photoshop Layers
I encountered a technical problem while using a Premiere project containing Photoshop layers.
I was relinking media in a Premiere project, but certain Photoshop files returned a “generic error” when I tried relinking them.
Then, some other Photoshop files would always need to be relinked when I restarted the Premiere project. Certain Photoshop layers within that file’s sequence would then appear offline in the premiere project, even though they were in fact connected to the Photoshop file. I could use the “Edit in Photoshop option to open the project in Photoshop.
When I double clicked on one of these files, I got the edit offline option box. When I clicked ok in that box, a “Premiere Debug Event” box told me that “Premiere Pro has Encountered a Serious error [..\..\Src\Media\Media.cpp-1780”. When I clicked continue, Premiere gave me another box, saying “Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project. A red box also appeared which said “An Input contract violation has occurred!”
The identical Premiere project I was editing last week does not have this problem.

Does bringing them to a local drive help?

It does not.

Have you tried loading the original .psd into Photoshop and resaving it?
Are all the layers “visible” and active in the file in Photoshop?
Do any need to be rasterized?
That’s about what I have to offer, I’ve never run into this.

I can drag the photoshop files into the project again and they connect just fine. But I’m unable to get them to replace the original photoshop file inside Premiere. The layers are arranged in a someone complicated fashion, so it’d be burdensome to replace every single one by hand.
