Multiple bugs working with R3D NE

[Admired_Wildflower5130]

1. White Balance

I have imported R3D NE footage into Premiere Pro Beta. For one specific scene that was shot in multiple clips, I have created an effect preset that only contains the adjusted white balance. In the project panel, I then selected all clips from that scene and applied the preset. As I had hoped, the white balance was adjusted accordingly for all selected clips. When I go into effect controls and then source, the white balance is set to the value of the preset. So far so good.

The problem is, the white balance is now forever stuck, so it seems, on that value. Whenever I try to adjust it, change it, it goes right back to the value of the preset, after exiting the effect controls source panel (for example when moving the playhead).

The white balance actually changes as I mean it to, but the number shown in the effect controls panel goes back to the value of the preset. This is annoying, because it means I can't make slight adjustments and move between clips to compare.

Evene if I remove the clip from the project or create a new project alltogether, the issue persists. Same is true, for when I create a new preset with a new white balance value and use it on all clips. Nonetheless, the white balance goes back to the value of the first preset.

2. Clips not visible / going black

Sometimes, I'm not sure when this happens, clips in my timeline will simply go black. I can still hear their sound when playing back or moving the playhead, but the program monitor stays completely black. To fix this, I've had to remove the clip from the project completely, and reimport. Nothing else has worked for me.

3. White Balance: Auto Balance

Often times after working on a project for a while, the eyedrop auto balance function will stop working, because the window that opens stays completely blank. Creating a new project or reimporting the clip into the existing project seem to fix this.

I work on a macbook pro m4 pro. The issues existed both on MacOS Sequoia and Tahoe, currently 26.2.

plz fix, thank you

Hi @Admired_Wildflower5130 - Can you navigate to the menu bar and select Premiere (Beta) > About Premiere then let us know the exact version you are working on.  

Are you using Lumetri for the white balance or the source settings?

Can you send your project and effect preset to jamiec@adobe.com

Hi Jamie,

I'm on 26.1.1 BETA StaticLib (Build 9). I am not using Lumetri for the white balance at all, only the source tab in the effect controls panel:

I'll try to send the email in a few minutes.
