PREMIERE PRO BETA 2026 Freezes when exporting a OMF and AAF

[SpaceCherryFilms]

When i attempt to export an OMF or AAF in beta it freezes, but when I downgrade the project file and export it out of Premiere 2025.5 it works perfectly.

Specs

windows 11 pro

ram: 96gb

RTX 4070 ti

sdd main drive

ext. hdd for the footage

Soooo basically there's nobody at Adobe that can help with this problem?  Or am I the only person on this forum that actually uses this feature for pro work?  Just asking.

We're tried, but cannot reproduce the freeze, based on the information you've provided. 

Confirming: in PPro beta builds (currently version 26.x), you can reproduce the freeze 100% of the time, exporting 100% of the sequences you've tried? 

[Bruce Bullis]

Update: Yep, you've identified a legitimate bug, introduced in recent beta builds. Fix forthcoming!

thanks! I look forward to the fix

I am having this same issue. i'm on BETA Build 14. You select file destination and name, and then it freezes on Break Out to Mono

I'm having similar issues with the new beta. For me, the project as a whole doesn't completely freeze, but my AAF window does. Had to downgrade as well to continue these projects.

Is this still not fixed? I'm in the middle of a huge project going into finishing and exporting the OMF is constantly freezing. Do I actually need to go through the process of downgrading my whole project in order to make this work? Please help.

The fix has been tested internally, and will be included in a new beta build, very soon.

>I'm in the middle of a huge project...

We're sorry for the inconvenience. Your situation is precisely why we don't recommend using beta builds for production work.

[Beta and official releases of PPro can peacefully coexist installed on the same system.]

[PaperFortress]

I appreciate the response. Good to know.

[PaperFortress]

Looks like you also cant create an AAF? Is this also bugged?

Thanks!

AAF is not working either. 

[Bruce Bullis]

Although I was never able to reproduce problems exporting AAF, I'm told that, yes, the fix we've tested applies AAF as well (which also displays multiple dialogs, during export).

Bug is still there. I sent to to audition and an OMF will export from there only.

I just updated to the newest beta and omf export is working fine now.  Thanks
