Clips in timeline use incorrect speed and incorrect selection from source

[inoffensiveusername]

When I load a project that was working properly when I saved it, some of the clips in the sequence have switched which part of the source media they're pulling from. It's always still the correct source media, just the wrong part of it. Some are also bizarrely slow- slower than the % speed I've chosen in Time Remapping or Speed/Duration. I can't seem to find a commonality between the affected clips that differentiates them from the unaffected; many unaffected clips have the same speed effects applied. In addition, when I try to replace the affected clips with new ones pulled directly from the source media, they continue to have issues with not reflecting the % speed I've chosen. The one I mostly recently tried to replace appears to be running full speed instead of 50%. I'm editing off a new hard drive, that's the only recent change in my setup. Some older saves don't have this issue, so I tried rebuilding the project from one of those, just adding some adjustment layers from the new save, but when I opened the rebuilt project this morning, the same issue occurred. I've tried resetting preferences, reinstalling Premiere, deleting the media cache, all with no luck.

OS: Windows 11

Were you on 23.6 during this whole process. Or did you do an update to PP along the way? Were the projects ever opened in an earlier version?

I was using 23.5 before with this project, good catch. I just tried rolling back. The saves from version 23.6 continue to have issues loading them up on 23.5; Older ones look ok but I didn't have issues with the rebuilt one until today. I guess I could try rebuilding again from an old save using 23.5. Would you advise against using elements from the newer saves in the old project?

Sorry, I should have mentioned, it was 23.4 where the issue was found. It set clips back to the first frame. Not all of them, but a problem with re-linking clips. I was wondering if that problem had hit you to some varying degree?

Here's the main discussion.

Let us know if it seems you suffered from the same issue. 

Did you try importing your problem project into a new project. However, on the original problem version, it would change the clip starting point most always to the first frame. You can quit then and be OK, but if you save the project in that state, there is no going back. Backups and/or AutoSaves are what is needed in that case.

All good. I started working on the project at the end of June, so I think I was using 23.5 by then. Also, looks like the affected clips haven't reset to the first frame, they've just moved around at random. I did have to relink clips when I moved to a new hard drive; maybe that was the cause. I just tried importing the problem project (the save where the issues have already occured) into a new project, and the issues persisted- not sure that's what you had in mind though.

All good? Great, if that's the case. If the project is somehow corrupted, importing that into a new project at times gets rid of the problem. Otherwise that's all I got for now, maybe someone else will see this and has a better idea.

Haha no, I'm unfortunately still having the issue. You appologized and I was saying it was ok. Anyways, thanks for the help. I'll probably just try to manually replace all the messed up clips and hope for the best.

Got it! 🙂 thanks
