Don’t try to key out the black tracking points; instead use the clone stamp tool and motion tracker to remove them. Here’s a good video on how to do it.

The files have either moved or changed file names since you last saved the project. Once you relink one, Premiere should be able to find the rest, but you may have to manually reconnect several depending on how your folders are now organized.

If you go to the Premiere Pro Preferences. there is a place to change keyboard shortcuts. Check there and make sure it wasn’t changed for some reason.

If Warp Stabilizer isn’t doing it, maybe try this technique in Photoshop.
I’ve never done it, but theoretically it should solve your problem.

There is no “Import Image Sequence” in After Effects, and you don’t want to import multiple files. To import an image sequence, first make sure all the photos you want to use are in the same folder. Then click “File–>Import–> File…” (or press Command+I on your keyboard), select the first photo in your sequence and check the box below the files that says “RAW Sequence” (or JPEG Sequence or PNG, whatever your format is). When you click “Open” it will automatically make a sequence with all the photos in your folder.
This will be one file in your After Effects project, so you don’t have to deal with the 5000 photos on your timeline. Just drop it into your composition like you would a video file.

You can right click the clip in the bin, go to “Modify” –> “Audio Channels.” This doesn’t really allow you to pan the audio, but it does allow you to map it to whatever channels you want.

You can use some simple expressions to do this: https://www.videocopilot.net/tutorial/audio_to_animation/
This video shows how to do it with Particular, but it should work with any particle generator.

To move a layer in the timeline, click on it and drag to the right or left. You could also use option(alt)+[ and option(alt)+] to trim the beginning and end of your layer to whatever point you are at on the timeline.

Also, check out this thread where is seems like someone was working out the same issue.

After Effects definitely isn’t the tool you’re looking for for this.
Premiere Pro has a multicam edit feature that basically allows you to do a “live edit” by clicking shots as you go, but I think it limits you to 4 cameras.
Maybe use the opacity rubber-bands on the clips. Drag it down to 0 on one clip, copy the clip, and paste the opacity attribute to all the other clips so everything on your timeline is at 0 opacity. Then you can quickly drag up the rubber band on a shot to see it without having to worry about shots above it on the timeline. If you don’t like it, drag it back down and try another one. Just an idea. I’ve never used the technique on a timeline with so many synced layers, so it may be just as tedious as any other way.
