Premiere Cannot Attach Proxies if Audio Interpreted to Dual Mono Instead of Stereo

This is on Premiere 25.2.3 on a MacBook Pro 2020 and an iMac 2020 both running the latest macOS Sequoia 15.5.

 

On the MacBook Pro 2020 I used Premiere to create proxies from XAVC UHD MP4 clips that I had used "Interpret Footage" to change the stereo audio track to dual mono. This process proceeded as usual. However, once I moved the created proxies and Premiere project file to my iMac 2020 on a different volume (where I have to reattach the clips), now I get this error when trying to reconnect to the proxies.

 

I used a portable drive (a Samsung T9) to copy the project to off my RAID for use in the MacBook Pro to create the proxies. When I connect the T9 to my iMac, I can load up the project no problem, so this seems solely due to a bug in the re-linking process when the footage is moved to a different volume.

Hi @ghuff - 
Thanks for submitting your bug report. 

 

When you open your project, set all your proxy media to Offline. Then, right click your clips and go to Proxy > Attach Proxies. From there, select your proxy files in their new location.

 

Let us know if that resolves the issue.


Sorry for the frustration.

Thanks, Jamie, that did indeed work, so it looks like the bug is just on the initial re-linking before the project is fully open.
