So my asus is about to die and wont do the work I need it to, I have a video for a huge client in premiere and have been working off a samsung t5 externally, the raw files and projects are saved to that. If I use that samsung ssd on a new computer can I just jump back into editing?

I did look at the transcode and consolidate options etc in project manager settings but premiere keeps throwing up an error when I try to export the project as a whole..

Help would be HUGELY appreciated, I'm so stressed ha!

Thanks

Hello,

About the Project Manager, you should try the following if you have problems with :

Disable "Include Audio Conform Files"
Disable "Include Preview Files"
Do not use special character in your filenames

With Autokroma we also develop PlumePack : it's a Project Manager plugin. You have the same "Collect & Copy" feature so some projects which don't work with the native Project Manager are working with PlumePack. But the main feature is to trim your footage losslessly (without re-encoding) : it removes the unused frame and you keep the same codec with exact same quality on your files so you can have a project much lighter : which can be useful on a SSD !
