Question

When I import a clip (14 sec.) Premiere only shows the first 20 frames of the clip.

Hi all,

When I import a clip (about 14 seconds long) Premiere only shows the first 20 frames of the clip. When I create a
sequence and drag the clips it still shows just 20 frames instead of a 14 second long clip. The strange thing is that
it does not happen at every clip I import. Just a couple of them. Installed the 2022 version of Premiere and there it

works fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

Premiere Pro 2023 (latest update)

iMac Apple M1 (16gb)

Footage:
MVI_0787.MP4 
MPEG-4 film
MPEG-4 AAC, H.264
HD(1-1-1) 

Camera:
Canon Legria HF G70

Hi Ann Bens,
The previous clip did not show the problem anymore somehow. But some other clips no now. Here is a screenshot with the clip properties and the clip added to a timeline. 

 

The clip MVI_0786 is about 11 seconds. But in Premiere it shows a duration of 23 frames.

Thanks for your help by the way. Means a lot!

It does say 14 seconds and 10 frames.

Right click on clip > new sequence from clip

Show screenshot of this timeline. Including header and top of timeline.

The screenshot of the clip properties in Premiere.

I imported the clips from the desktop as a test. Still same problem.

Post screenshot clip properties as shown in Premiere.

Put your clips on a internal drive befor importing them into Premiere.
