Project-Based Location for Media Cache Files
Hello Premiere Pro Community and Developers,
I'd like to propose an enhancement to the way Premiere Pro handles the storage of media cache files, specifically the .pek and .cfa files. Currently, the location of these files is configured globally in the program's preferences under Media Cache settings. This approach requires manual intervention to change the location for each new project if we want to keep project files and cache files together, which is not very practical for those of us managing multiple projects.
Suggestion: I believe a more streamlined and project-friendly approach would be to allow users to set the media cache location on a per-project basis. This could be integrated into the Project Settings or Scratch Disks settings, where we could have an option to select "Same as Project" for media cache files. Such a feature would automatically store all media cache files in the designated project folder, thus keeping all related files consolidated and making project archiving and portability much easier.
Thank you for considering this enhancement. I believe it would be a valuable addition for many users.
