Premiere Won’t Bring in Audio Along with Video Clips?
So I’m having this weird glitch in Premiere the last few days.
The first video clip I drag into a timeline works fine. But after that, any clip I drag from the Project window onto the timeline will ONLY give me video – not audio… even though I know the audio is there. It even plays in the source preview window.
The only way to get both again after the first time is to drag multiple clips onto the timeline at once. That works for some reason.
Restarting the program doesn’t alleviate the problem, and neither does restarting the computer. I’ve tried resetting my preferences, but that did not work. I also tried reinstalling the program, but that didn’t work, either.
I can’t seem to find anyone else on the web talking about this problem.
Anybody seen this before or have any ideas? It’s super annoying.
Edit for more info: The “Drag Audio Only” function in the source window also will not work at all. “Drag Video Only” works fine.
Meanwhile, going back to Adobe Premiere CC (Rather than CC 2014) there is no such problems. But I can’t do that on projects I’m already working on in CC 2014…

So Adobe’s support actually helped me solve this. I didn’t expect them to be helpful.
I guess you have to have the “A1” all the way on the left highlighted for this to work. It will still import the first one into the sequence without that, but that’s it. Weird quirk.
I wonder why I never encountered this before. On the one hand it’s a little embarrassing to have missed something so simple. On the other hand, I wonder why it’s necessary or why I never noticed it before… odd.
Anyhow, that’s the answer in case anyone else encounters it.

So simple! Thank you. I was thinking of reinstalling Adobe 🙂

Thanks for your reply, I’m just experiencing this now!
So I’ve dragged about 50 clips onto the timeline, assuming that it was working fine. It wasn’t in the same way that Brent described. So now my timeline contains the first clip with audio followed by 50 clips without.
Is there any way to rebuild the audio/add it to the timeline automatically? Would be great if there’s a way to do this very easy automatic task, considering the audio is sitting right there in the video.

SOLVED Thanks to another thread on Creative Cow!
Okay, in CC2014 you have to select your clip on the timeline, press F. Earlier versions it’s T. The source window will populate with the selected clip and in/out points. Then, in the timeline, make sure the FAR LEFT V1 and A1 are clicked ‘on’. Drag the clip from your source window over top of the original clip. Audio is pulled in as well. Thanks to CC for having a huge archive of helpful information.
