P: Transcription Crashing Premiere version 25.1.0 build 73

Also having this issue, so frustrating. MacOS Seqouia 15.1.1 (24B91), M1 Pro. Only been happening for last 2 months or so.

Initially noticed it in v25 as soon as it upgraded. Installed v24 again, but the problem persists. It's almost certainly during transcription, especially when multiple clips are being transcribed. It seems better when transcribing individual clips one-by-one.

Have turned off auto-transcribe now and will see if it changes anything.

lately its been crashing upon COMPLETION of transcription. like once its close to done, it crashes, then I open it back up only to see the transcription is finished.

@rachelcenter @stevenprobets,

Long shot possibility. I discovered what I would call a "hang," not a crash, but a problem is causing a range of issues in 25.0.0 and I assume in 25.1.0. See this thread regarding D2D Drawbot errors:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-bugs/p-transcription-leads-to-errors-video-artifacts-glitches/idc-p/15039095#M42513

The range of issues with transcription includes:

1 - Transcription does not start (either no dialogue box or no start after getting the "Create transcription from source media" dialogue box opens)

Example:

2 - Transcription hangs without crash with or without transcription finishing

The D2D Drawbot issue above appears to fall in this category. But when I could recover the screen enough to save the project, it showed that the transcription had completed.

3 - Transcription crashes, with or without crash report pop-up and with or without transcription finishing

This current thread falls in that category

Edited to add "with or without transcription finishing" to #3.

I do agree its longer ones when you have many clips to do. I had about 30 clips to transcribe when the crashing started.

i dont have auto transcribed turned on and premiere is still sporadically crashing upon longer transcriptions

... and yes I do always send my bug report.

It happens when I create a new project and my files/project are set to auto transcribe on import - it will crash during the process after a min or so. If I cancel auto transcribe in preferences and just do it manually per clip it's fine.

> but we cant rule out the bug if testing is only done on PC and issue is on Mac.

Totally true. But we don't know that it is Mac only. If I replicated the problem on Windows, that would be helpful information. Of course, we can't completely rule it out on Windows just because I couldn't replicate it. 

But it points to Mac.

> i've had adobe confirm known bugs that were only showing up on mac not pc 

I'm PC only; staff or another helper will test on Mac I'm sure. This is a bug that has been hard to replicate, so I report what I'm seeing to help rule in/out issues. And my apologies again for not noting that I was testing on Win 10.
