Audio Bugs in 9.1

I've been seeing some bugs with audio in the newly released Premiere Pro 9.1.  The three issues I've seen so far are the last bit of audio being looped after a fade out, where there should be silence.  A Muted track exports with a very loud (0dBFS) noise instead of silence.  And a mono file in a standard track exports without any audio at all.

These issues are occurring on sequences created in an earlier version of PP.  I have not yet tested a new sequence created in 9.1.

The issues occur with H.264, H.265, UT and .wav exports.

Now here's the key.  The issues only occur when exporting through AME, with Import Sequences Natively unchecked.  If I perform a Direct export, no issues.  If I check the Import Sequences Natively box in AME preferences, no issues.

So that's what I have so far.  Anyone else?

      Seems the issues have been corrected in the latest 2015.3.

      Hi,


      Anyone still getting the same audio looping problem in  version 13.8.1?

      According to blog.adobe it's corrected:

      "

      • Audio no longer unexpectedly loops incorrect samples towards the end of an After Effects composition, when exported via Adobe Media Encoder or dynamically linked to Premiere Pro."

        Can't believe that this bug is still present. Seriously. Thats the most basic: Rendering Video with Audio. You can't do updates implementing such bugs. This costs a lot of people a lot of time and money.

        Just what the dude before my post wrote

        "Completely unacceptable."

        It's not.  Not in PP at least.  The folks reporting it are talking about After Effects comps.  The AE forum is the better place to discuss those.

        Jim - I think folks end up here because they do a search for the audio looping bug. I think you are playing around with semantics a bit - it is exactly the same bug, and it seems more like a Media Encoder thing than an AE or Premiere issue - doesn't happen if you use the AE render Q. So it is almost certainly an issue with Adobe's dynamic link server and therefore I think it is the same bug.

        Probably the best advice is to lodge an issue with Adobe.

        *****  AE FIX  *****   Well, at least for the time being.  It appears the problem occurs when there is no audio track/layer at the end of a comp. For example, let's say my video clip is 1:50min in length, and I fade to graphics with no audio for 10 seconds.  I get the broken record of audio for 10 seconds.  To work around the bug, I added a layer of video and turned the audio down to -48:00db under the last 10 seconds.  It worked.

        That won't work on a TVC where it is wall to wall audio until the end of the comp. I had a 30 sec audio track. The last 5 seconds was silent and I still got the looping. I'm not sure I understand why Adobe can't just fix what is a serious issue - that was supposed to be one of the benefits of Creative Cloud - you could release fixes (and features)  quickly without having to wait for a major release.

        Ok i am having this issue exactly as described with the looping at the end. It is also occurring with the .mp3 of the same file i am exporting through AME.

        I had to go back to 15.2 because i couldn't import my .m2ts files in 15.3

        Any suggestions?

        PS does anyone know if i take of the fade at the end if it repairs the issue in AME?

        I remember having this issue several years ago

        I have to use AME as i am editing 6 hours of video every night and it takes several hours to run it on AME and i would be up all night if i had to do this manually with PP

        I am at this event for 17 days

        I rely on Adobe and they have failed me so much recently

        One more thing

        When i first had 15.2 it did not do this

        It is only since i upgraded to 15.3 and could not import .m2ts files and then downgraded to 15.2 that the issues started

        EDIT: I did a small test and took the exponential fade off the end of the clip and ran it through AME and it still does the loop

          I'm working from AE and AME and I'm experiencing the same problem for the first time. And I can't choose to render from AE since Adobe simply left out a lot of format from the native Render Queue. I'm really frustrated.

            That sounds like a bug with After Effects.  It's working fine now in PP.

            I don't think so. I just upgraded to 2015.3 this week, and now I'm experiencing the audio bug for the first time. Any AE composition I export with AME gets a weird audio loop in the last 1.5 seconds.

              I never tested AE comps because audio in AE is just...awkward.  I've always found it much easier to do the audio under my AE comps in PP.

              Doesn't work for me as well - I've been doing the "silent audio track" trick for awhile now and it's an annoying unnecessary step which I really hope is finally fixed when the next big update drops.  This should have been fixed months ago!

              That didn't work for me.  I have to use a silent audio track.

              As mentioned in post 24 of another thread (linked below), the easiest workaround until we get a fix is to put an audio slug underneath everything (or wherever there's silence). I've been able to use any audio file, put it on it's own track, and drop the track's volume all the way down to silent.  Doing so renders out everything without any unwanted audio loops.

              This is definitely the most bizarre bug I've ever seen.  Thanks to everyone who took the effort to identify the scenarios that cause it.  I wasn't experiencing the problem until I was previewing in After Effects (using dynamic link), so I didn't realize that it was due to Premiere, since previewing in Premiere seemed fine.

                I actually think the easiest solution is to check that box in AME preferences.  It solves the problem and doesn't require any thought or effort on your part once checked.  It just works.
