Edit > Edit Original doesn't open/launch the AE project

@Bruce Bullis @Kevin-Monahan 

if it just opens the quicktime and doesnt even launch AE, thats a sign that there isnt meta data baked into that MOV to begin with. but i can confirm that "edit original" still doesnt work properly for either of us, and hasnt worked in Premiere for some time now

The function still does not work.  It is not a dynamic link, we render out of AE to Prores MOVs without using dyanamic linking.  In the past, the MOV itself would open the AE comp when 'Edit Original', now it does not.  I just tried it again in 2024 and it just opens the MOV in quicktime.  

hes not talking about dynamic link. isnt dynamic link when you round trip from premiere to Ae back to premiere? hes talking about edit original which launches the AE project file that the MOV was created in. which hasnt worked for quite some time.

@Kevin-Monahansince it wont let me paste the text in of my bug report, heres a jpg

@Kevin-Monahan I keep trying to post my bug report as a reply but it doesnt show up. so I tried to add it to the top of this post but it tells me I have HTML in my text but i dont...........

yes please try it on the latest version of premiere and not beta.

Hello @rachelcenter,

I tried it on Premiere Pro Beta, and it works as expected. I will test it on the stable version as soon as I can. Perhaps someone in the community can try to repro the issue on their systems. I hope we can figure this out for you.

Thanks,
Kevin

@Kevin-Monahanyes issue still persists. I tried it tonight and premiere will point you to ae but it wont attempt to locate or open the ae project file.
