Project Managing in Premiere CC

[Kevin Monahan]

[Andy Edwards] “Could you elaborate on the changes in Project Managing in the new version of Premiere. Does the new version handle Long GOP files in trimming mode now? Or are there other options for transcoding upon project completion when media managing? Currently CS6 version fails when trimming Long GOP files and you are stuck with media managing an entire project vs a final sequence. This leads to much larger Project Managed folders and is a storage hog. “

Hi Andy,
It’s a common request, but we don’t offer that feature yet. We do know about that feature request, but be sure to add your voice here:

Filed my request thanks.

What can you tell me about the new media manage changes in the CC version?

Did you put in transcoding to another codec as a option when media managing?

This is a huge show stopper for all our show media manages when we switched to an XDCAM workflow to save space throughout our post process. If we can’t trim our projects down, we are eating up huge amounts of drive space and LTO space because Premiere media manages the entire project.

If you have any tips or suggestions, I’m open to anything which will help solve the issue.

Thanks,
Andy

No response?

Any tips?

Is there any way to automatically transcode what’s in a timeline to a trimmable codec?
(Like FCP 7 has been able to do for years and years, not to mention Avid …)

[Andy Edwards]

Heard though other channels. It’s being looked into. Hopefully a future version of CC will come with transcoding options.

Just wanted to bump this in case there has been some development or if anybody else has a work around. We are using XDCAM as well, and will be switching to Premiere Pro CC from FCP7 (which has a great media management tool, trims XDCAM files without any issues…)

Thanks!!

Nothing new for now. It is hit or miss with “trimming” the project when XDCAM is present. Most of the time you need to just “Copy All” and live with all the extra Gigs associated with your project for media management to work.
