Avid AAF import causing Premiere to crash

Trying to migrate a sequence form Avid to PP. Got one sequence to work no problem now the second one is crashing PP.

Using a 2017 iMac in High Sierra with newest PP update. Also fresh install on Avid. 


PP is giving this error: Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro CC to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.

 

Tried a bunch of dif AAF export settings and tried going thru Resolve to with no success. 

 

Adobe Chat/Customer service wasn't much help. 

Anyone delt with this? or have any ideas I could Try? Thanks

Try importing it into resolve.  (there's a free version).  If that works, export an xml from resolve and import that into premiere.

try taking the media offline before you do the import into Premiere.  If that works, then try relinking the media.

You wouldn't happen to know how to offline media in avid would you?
