Text-based editing reseting clips to starting frame after any changes in files location

As the title says, whenever i use text-editing in a project, i cant change any files, or move the project folder, or work on any other computer, as any changes in the original files location reset every clip in the text-edited secuence to the begining of the original file, making the project useless. Also, the transcription changes, so the clips are still linked to the text, only that the previous edition has been lost.

This issue is fixed in 23.5 which is available now.  If you ever used transcription in 23.4 and got the relink dialog, you should close and not save the project.  Once you save, the damage is done and you will have to restore from autosave backups.  You should close the project without saving and update to 23.5.  Now you can relink and everything will be correctly linked.

@Sootysax 

 

If the project was opened and saved, then the unwanted change to the clips is saved into the project.  Try opening an auto-save project (as recent as possible) that was never opened in Premiere Pro 23.4 in 23.5.  Assuming the clips use the In to Out as expected, use Save As to promote the auto-save to being the current project file.

Pelle Asselbergs, you might try revertin to 23.2 which I found extremely stable...  I find it advisable to wait at least a couple of weeks to do an update and monitor this forum to see if there are serious bugs before updating.  In this case, I never updated to 23.3 and went directly to 23.4...  Since I didn't feel the need to use text-based editing, I felt comfortable doing this update.

Thanks Francis,

I downgraded to 23.3 and the issue was fixed with a back up. Strangely première is more buggy and laggy since moving from 23.4. For instance Premiere Pro freezes on export dialogue when hitting export..
good to hear there is a solution in 23.5 for this particular issue. But I guess people will not move above 23.3 for a very long time now     This bug was so ridiculously, there could always be a  new and scary issue in 23.5 to mess up with your cuts since we experienced this in 23.4…

@Pelle Asselbergs If you ever see the relink dialog in 23.4 and you have used transcription, close and do not save.  If you save, the damage is done and you will have to roll back to autosave backups.  You should update to 23.5.
