P: Filler Words not found

When I use transcription and then select filler words, it always says there are not filler words even when they are as clear as day in the audio. 

It seems lots of people are having this issue. 

I am using Version 25.1.0 (Build 73)

@Tommy34286751inqk,

 

Thanks; excellent! Very odd....

 

This is a stereo sample. Nothing special in PR or MediaInfo, except it being mp3. I tested it, and also tested reimport of it combined with video as mp4 and as a .wav file. I tested in 25.0.0, 24.6.1, and Beta 25.2.0.71.

 

This is an English speaker with good enunciation. There are 3 instances of very distinct "uhms" that are not transcribed as "uhm," filler word, or pause. They occur at the end of transcription sentence breaks. I think the transcription segments would be longer, except this single speaker is transcribed as speaker 1, then 2, then 1, 2, 1, and 2. I do not hear any difference in "who" is speaking.

@Tommy34286751inqk,

 

If none of them are working, I'd say any clip. The 2 main questions are a) whether you have a clip that has no filler words and b) whether what should be detected as filler words are showing as regular text in the transcript (as a filler word or as something else).

Here's a sample clip. Usually the "Ummms" would be transcribed. But I just
tried transcribing it, and to your point, they were not recognized.

Hey thanks all!

- I'm using 25.1.0

- OS is mac 15.1.1 (24B91)

- And sorry I'm no expert. What kind of clip are you looking for? Generally, no clip I try works with "filler words'

Hi @Tommy34286751inqk - We can't reproduce this issue in 25.1 or the beta.  Would you be able to provide a sample clip?  Stan has a good question on what version of Premiere Pro are you working on and what os?

For the last few months, my Premiere is not recognizing any 'filler words' in the text/transcript function. Anyone have a fix for this?

@Tommy34286751inqk,

 

Others are reporting this. What version of PR are you using. I cannot replicate so far in 25.0 nor the Beta.

I am using Version 25.1.0 (Build 73)

 

Mac OS - 15.2 (24C101)

 

Video was filimed with OBS and and an iPhone, 2 different audio tracks

 

When your support asked me to select "pauses" instead of "filler words" pauses did show up. 

Hope this helps

Hi Emeka250382451oke,

 

We're sorry about the poor experience. Let us know the version of Premiere Pro that you are using. For testing purposes, can you switch the Search filter to Pauses & let us know if it's detecting the filler words?

 

Thanks,

Sumeet

Yes when switched to pauses, it detected the pauses.

Hey there!

Since I updated to Adobe Premiere Pro 25, Premiere's text-based editing hasn't shown me the filler words in my audio. I can see the silences just fine, but it says "no results" for the filler words, even though they're there! It's super frustrating because I used to rely on that feature to remove filler words when editing long videos, and now I can't do that.

 

Thanks for your help in advance.
