  • Relinking AVCHD messes up timings and sync

    Posted by Luke Ogden on April 3, 2014 at 1:42 pm

    I began a project the road on my laptop. On returning to the studio, the project (and all assets) were moved onto our RAID and relinked.

    Premiere CC’s new relink dialog did a great job of loacting all the assets and relinking them EXCEPT all the timings of the clips are messed up. All edits, cuts and clips are in the right place in the timeline but its like someones gone along and slipped every clip.

    The timeline is mainly B-roll video tracks with no audio, interestingly the A-roll talking head stuff which has an audio track is fine and adheres to the original sequence on my laptop.

    I’ve performed this kind of operation before, checking projects off the the studio RAID to work on at home then checking the updated projects back in. Its a simpler process there because at the studio we use posthaste to enforce a file structure which is always the same. All premiere had to do is be directed to the root folder and voilá.

    All footage is AVCHD from the fs700

    anyone got any ideas why this has happened or experienced something similar?

    Hi Luke,

    When relinking, check the box that say “Preserve interpret footage settings” in the locate window.

    thanks Vincent, that definitely sounded like the right solution but I haven’t been able to make it work. Whether I tick the box or not I’m confronted with the same issue and a squence that bares no resemblance to my edit!

    Seeing as you mentioned it, I did interpret all the Fs700 footage to 50p in the project panel. I do this to speed up the edit, whilst retaining the option to go to slow-mo. Could this be causing the problems and if so why only on the relink?
