Hi Philip, and the rest. Thanks for the input. Whilst my intention is to only have one active audio track at any time if possible, the issue I have is that there is a lot of overlapping dialogue. Including lots of "mmmm" and "aahh" as people talk. So I need to dip into these or they sound "off mic".  The issue, indeed, is a phasing issue.  And unless they are sub-frame synced precisely, then when I dip into other people making sounds, or speaking over the main speaker, other peoples noises or words sounds reverby and unsynced unless I do a sub-frame line up.  There wouldnt really be an issue if the sub-frame synce wasnt lost everytime I moved clips along time timeline.  It is a very odd thing.    I do wonder how in studio enviroments on live tv, why there doesnt seem to be an issue with people's lav mics picking up the sound of other panellists audio.  I have attemped gating the tracks, so they kick in only when the people on-mic are speaking, but as they are all sat so close together, I can't seem to get the gating to work well enough to only open when the relevant person speaks.   I think I will just need to edit it with slightly out of sync audio until picture lock and then line up perfectly before mastering out the final videos.  ...

Hi Neil. I checked this out and turned off multi-frame rendering. Same issue happens. The linked AE clips inside my Premiere timeline just show "media pending" and wont connect. If I try to relink it, Premiere crashes. I have to make sure the specific AE project is open before opening Premiere, then the clips are linked. I have many Premiere projects where I have 2-3 different AE graphics projects dynamic linked so this will be untanable.    Anything else I can try?? Thanks   James ... View more

Note: I'm using brand new updated CC 2022. However I have had this issue randomly for the last year or so in previous version. ... View more

Thanks for replies. I am aware of proxy workflows - which I’m using more often now - and have read up on when Premiere does and doesn’t utilise the GPU. However this doesn’t really answer my specific question. My overall point is that buying the latest or fastest graphics card seems kind of pointless and CPU seems to be the most important thing. Just seems a waste of available computing power When Adobe refuses to (or can’t) utilise it. ... View more

I have been told on another post Adobe should have it fixed by next release, whenever that will be. Some people seem to have issues when rendering / exporting final edit but i can't even begin an edit as it maxes out memory simple conforming the footage once it's imported. I am going to have to keep using CC 2015 and just update and test it when a new version comes out. 2015 seems ok for me in regard to this issue but other niggly bugs with the audio are annoying me. If it wasnt for my need of AE and Photoshop I would be using Edius by now. ... View more

Just an update. I finally got to a place where I finished all my ongoing projects and tried to import a big folder of 4k MP4 files from my GH4 again. A brand new project and brand new footage.  Before the footage had fully imported I got the dreaded "computer low on memory" message, and multiple "image buffer" failure messages. I rolled back to Premiere Pro 2015.3 and imported the footage. I currently sat watching the memory remain at 20% as it smoothly imports and conforms the footage with no issues. Adobe, you NEED to sort this out!! I want to be able to update Premiere to new versions, this is why I am paying the subscription to you after all! WHEN will you sort this??? ... View more

I have a new laptop with more than enough memory and a HUGE 6gb Graphics card and it is happening here as well.  Basically memory is getting very near to maxing out (when I check it in Task Manager its going beyond 70% just conforming/generating peak files for the imported footage) and I am getting constant error messages saying "unable to create image buffer" and "MXF Read error" and "MXF decode error". (the project is a mix of 4k MP4 and 4k MXF).  I have been advised to roll back to an earlier version of Premiere by the company who sold me the editing laptop as they told me they were aware of errors in latest versions of CC. However, I am near the end of a very complicated edit and this would be impossible as I cannot open the project in an older version. So basically I have to live with Premiere crashing and HOPE I can get it finished and exported for the client.  I am so angry at Adobe over this. I am seriously considering cancelling my membership and getting Edius. ... View more

I am having MAJOR issues, very recently with latest Premiere release. When trying to import 4k MOV footage from my GH4 - something I frequently do with no problems - the memory maxes out during conforming, and I get a message telling me to close the program as my system is low on memory. I don't even touch Lumetri, so don't think it has anything to do with this. Then the computer just freezes. At first I thought it was corrupted footage from the card, but it seems to be something else.  I reinstalled Windows 10 - a totally clean install - and it still does this. Other error messages pop up bottom right of the screen saying "cannot create buffer" or "cannot write to....appdata..." - very randomly. Anyway, I am wondering if I should try re-installing a previous version of Premiere - is that possible? - to see if this fixes the problem. ... View more
