Compatabilty of legacy projects

CRAIG!

Hey, I just got back from NAB ... that was wild, there were so many people practically crying they were so happy to see real people again, not computer screens.

And then, here's me old bud Craig on the PrPro forum!

Awesome!

And yea, I'd just try a "new project", use MediaBrowser to import the older project file assets.

The Titler titles converted to morgrts will be the biggest issue I'm guessing.

Welcome back, Craig! You still in kiwiland?

I need to revisit some legacy projects from CC2014, CC2015.

How will latest PPro version handle this?

Most of the times it will work great. Create a new project in the current version of Premiere Pro and import the old project/s using File > Import > Media instead of just open them. Have patience, it will take a while for large projects and it will appear that the app has freezed, but just wait and the old project will import.

Some old video/audio filters are gone and will now be offline. Redoing some work may be necessary with new video/audio filters. If you have titles made by the Titler it´s time to convert them to new graphics. This can be done in the Graphics and Titles menu. 

And, welcome back! 🙂

Hey Graig, missed you!

You could give the trial a spin.

Welcome back!

There have been a couple of threads where people have had to update their projects in stages using inbetween versions of Premiere., that's if you still have older versions on your machine.
