Question

Why is Premiere suddenly interpreting my footage wrong?

Opened a Premiere project today that I haven’t opened in two weeks, and suddenly the footage isn’t being interpreted correctly. It has a cyan/magenta tone to it, and all track mattes aren’t being read properly.

According to AI, the strong cyan/teal + magenta color cast I’m seeing in the Program Monitor is a very common Adobe Premiere Pro color management / interpretation issue, not a hardware/GPU failure.

I’ve tried updating all the apps, including Creative Cloud, with no success. What am I missing? Did a Windows update cause this? NVIDIA Studio driver has been updated too with no success of correcting the problem. Super perplexed and wondering if anyone has a solution.

    Details matter ... and you’ve left out any details we would need to know too help.

     

    What’s the media? Which version ... as in 26.2.0 …? What color management settings are being used? And what monitor are you using with what settings? To start with.

    Everyone's mileage always varies ...
