Text Panel Transcript Editing Does Not Show Edits Until Project is Closed and Reloaded

I am on an iMac i9 (2020) Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16GB, 64GB of RAM, 2TB SSD, and MacOS Sequoia 15.7.1 running Premiere Pro 25.5.0.

On this project I am working on, I am in the Text Panel under the Transcript tab and making corrects. Often the corrections fail to show, so when I edit the text, and press "Tab" on my keyboard (or click away off the panel), the edits I made disappear and it shows how the text looked originally. To fix this, I have to close and re-open the project, which is very annoying, and then it works like as expected.

Usually before this happens I have been editing the sequence (removing small moments and such) and thus could be related to that. Seems to work fine if editing the text is the first thing I do once I reload the project.

Sorry; just couldn't get back to this. It was a long shot. I was curious as to whether the AE linked comps could be involved.

 

Here's hoping that even though we could not replicate your issue, it will be fixed in the next release.

@ghuff,

 

Thanks. Nothing there that should cause an issue. But then its a bug....

 

I have some more tests to do....

There is a music bed (WAV audio), two linked AE comps, and a PNG bug. Audio is part of the video file, not recorded separately. Format is HEVC 10-bit 4:2:2 in 3840x2160, audio is LPCM 48Khz in 24-bit.

@ghuff,

 

Thanks for the response! At least one user appeared to have all the right symptoms, and did not use duplicated sequences. I had hoped we could pin down a related cause, but not so far. I still hope that the fix staff have identified will fix your problem as well.

 

I just tested again in PR 25.5.0, and I get your symptom (edits do not show) and the initial one that prompted the main reports (extracts etc from the transcript tab result in the transcript no longer being in sync with the actual timeline).

 

It might also help to know something about the layout of your sequence. A screenshot would be good. If not possible, are there multiple clips? Format? Is the audio in separate files from the video? Subclips?  Proxies? Anything like that.

These are all independent sequences created from the source clip in the bin.

Did you start this sequence by duplicating another one? If so, it's a bug that is fixed in the Beta. You have discovered the best workaround: trope project.

I have not tried re-transcribing the video because, as I stated in my original post, closing the project and re-opening it makes it work like it should and then I have no issues, so I do not see a reason to try re-transcribing at this time.

 

This is currently the project I am working on that I am doing this with, so I do not know if it happens with other projects yet.

I have followed the steps in How to Report a Problem, but if you want to let me know what I am leaving out, perhaps you could enlighten me?

Hi @ghuff 

Welcome to the Premiere Pro Forum community. Thank you for taking the time to report a problem. Have you tried to re-transcribe the video and then edit the transcript text? Is this happening with just this project? Or have you noticed it in a new project with newly transcribed clips?
You can also try clearing the media cache and resetting user preferences.  It would help us if you could use the link here, How to Report a Problem, which has steps to provide more information that can help us identify the issue.

Here to help.

Ian
