Pretty much what the title already says, sometimes Premiere loads up and reads the waveform (that wheel on top-right corner) but now it simply doesn’t read any audios from the videos I’m working on. Things that I already tried to fix the problem:Sequence - Render Audio Reset preferences Delete Peak Files Check and unchecking Show Audio WaveformKeep in mind that the issues only shows up with Premiere 26 since I tried working on the 25 and it the waveform showed up there, so I think maybe Premiere 26 have some kind of weird bug to read audio files? Any suggestions to what I could do to get the waveform back?

Pretty much what the title already says, sometimes Premiere loads up and reads the waveform (that wheel on top-right corner) but now it simply doesn’t read any audios from the videos I’m working on.

Things that I already tried to fix the problem:

Sequence - Render Audio
Reset preferences
Delete Peak Files
Check and unchecking Show Audio Waveform

Keep in mind that the issues only shows up with Premiere 26 since I tried working on the 25 and it the waveform showed up there, so I think maybe Premiere 26 have some kind of weird bug to read audio files?

Any suggestions to what I could do to get the waveform back?

What are the media properties?

Just attached both media properties. But they're not that weird, I mainly work with "youtube" videos, so they're mainly the most used for that like mp4, mov, mkv...

Some sound effects I also use are not showing their waveforms.

Everything's still fine with PR2025.
