Clips not being linked correctly after restart

I'm currently editing an aftermovie for our company-party. I've recorded it with 7 cameras (all internal timecode synced). 4 of those are timelapse cameras which are running realtime. They are a GoPro 9, 11, 12 and a Panasonic GH5.

 

I've imported all footage and sycned it with TentacleSync. Now whenever I reopen the project, the footage of the GH5 and the GoPro 9 is offset. Like its not correctly linked. It's showing the "Danger lines" (see yellow label for the GH5 footage)

 

Nothing has changed in between reopening the footage. No name changes, no drive letter change, just a simple restart.

 

All footage (total of 1.34tb) is on a T7 ssd from Samsung. 

 

Any ideas?

@Kevin-Monahan It seemed  to work, it was just a lot of footage which somehow got corrupted via the Tentacle Sync software. Since it was 1.37tb of footage (across 470 clips) including realtime timelapses it was a lot for Premiere Pro to handle. The usage of Insta360 files also didn't help. I managed to just wait for 30 mins for the footage to load and everything worked.

Hi @Julian5C10,

Can the team have more info? See, How do I write a bug report?

 

Try updating the software for a potential fix.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Nothing seems to work, not even on my laptop.

@Warren Heaton10841144 The latest, 24.6.1. I'm currently downgrading to 24.6 as it is now just failing to open the project. It is linking the files faster but just freezes everytime I move my mouse.

Which version of Premiere Pro is this happening with?

 

There was an issue with 23.4 where clips would slip to the Media Start (the first frame of the Source Footage) wherever it is used in the Timeline.  It was like 2% funny and 98% frustrating.  

 

That was fixed, but I am wondering if it is related in some way.

Since I'm on a deadline I just re-imported the footage and replaced it and also replaced the clips I already used in the edit. Haven't found a solution yet but will update it whenever I find one.

@Warren Heaton10841144 Hey. I just tried this. It seems to work but just replaces the footage already in the timeline. I need to somehow change the source footage because I already used some part of the clips in my edit. Got any more ideas? I'm also testing some more stuff. Seems like the media start property is somehow changed (which it normally doesn't)

@Julian5C10 

 

Hmmm.  That usually resolves it. 

Try this:

1. Create a Bin named something like "Re-imported Source".  
2. Use the Media Browser to import an affected Clip.  This creates a new Source for the Clip.  Keep the re-imported Clip selected.  

3. Locate the corresponding Clip in the Timeline with the missing media indicators (the "danger lines"), then right-click and choose Replace with Clip > From Bin.

 

This should restore the instance of the Clip in the Timeline with the reimported Source.
