This is a continuation of a thread that was closed, but this issue is not answered or resolved. (LINK)
I'm experiencing a consistent issue when attempting to replace footage by Right-clicking on the clip in the Project Bin and selecting "Replace Footage". I get the dialog box to select the replacement and then I get one of three outcomes:
1. Premiere crashes suddenly and completely. (45% of the time)
2. The Dialog box goes GREY and remains on screen. You cannot close that box. No replacement took place. (45% of the time)
3. The replacement completes successfully. (10% of the time.)
This started on upgrading to CC 2017 in January.
I'm replacing footage several times an hour, so this has a huge impact on my workflow. A fix would be welcome!

This is happening to me also
A work around to try is:
1 - Make media offline by right-clicking clip and select "make offline"
2 - Right click clip and select "link media"
3 - Browse to file you want to link to - your replacement file.

I'm 95% sure I already filed a bug on this crash. (Although I cannot find a confirmation email.)

Confirmation emails are not the norm. Both the Bug report and the Feature Request are mostly one way comms.

Is their bug datebase public and searchable? It'd be nice to see that this bug is in their queue.

It is not. (But yes, it would be nice.)

Hi devans_scout,
Sorry for this issue. Did you ever find a solution? Please let us know if you have or if you still need help.
Thanks,

Hi Kevin, thanks for the help.
Nope, I have yet to find a solution to this. My workaround is to save my work and shut down Premiere anytime I need to replace footage. It never (?) fails on the first try if you've just started up Premiere. After that it seems like a coin flip whether it'll succeed or crash. Actually, to be more accurate, your odds worsen each time you replace footage and it will eventually crash.
The workaround is very disruptive and time-consuming, as you can imagine. Any help you can provide would be welcome.

Hi devans_scout,
What kind of footage are you ingesting and replacing? Are they the same format? Any other details you can give us?
Thanks,
Kevin

The replacement footage is always the same format, created with the same tools and workflow. The most common example is I'm replacing version 1 of an AE animation with an updated version 2. This happens with H264 files and with ProRes422 files.
These are the steps I follow which results in one of three outcomes:
1. Right-click on the clip I want to replace in the Project window.
2. Select "Replace Footage.." from the choices.
3. The dialog box opens asking which footage will be the replacement. I select the replacement footage and click "Open.'
Outcome #1: the dialog box which I selected the replacement footage turns grey and non-interactable. You can do nothing to the dialog box. If you click away from the box, it disappears, or rather it loses focus and it's behind the Ppro window. The only solution is to save work and restart PPro.
Outcome #2: the moment you click "Open" you get an error box, something like "A serious error has occured" and PPro crashes outright.
Outcome #3: the footage is replaced successfully.
If I save my work, close and reopen Premiere Pro and attempt a replace, it will always succeed. (Outcome#3) However, further attempts to replace footage start sliding down the rat hole of Outcome#1 and #2.
I hope this is helpful.

Can you give us any word on if this is in the queue to be worked on and/or fixed?
Or if there's any further detail we can provide to help get it in the queue?
Thanks!

Looks like it's being investigated. Can you post any crashlogs? Assuming you're on Mac, here's how to post a truncated log: FAQ: How do I post a Mac OS X crash log?

Lots and lots and lots of crashes today. (Yesterday, today and tomorrow I'm doing a lot of footage replacement.)
Here's log from one of them, per the instructionis you provided: (I hope this is what you need.)

I was having this exact same problem in After Effects. I have a template that was created in 14.1 and newer versions AE would crash as soon as I tried to replace footage in that template after it opened. Every time. I just had to stick with 14.1. Today I upgraded to CC 2018 hoping that it would fix the problem. It did not. I did, however, find a way to fix my problem. Here's what I did:
That is my folder structure. My AE file and assets that need to be relinked are nested in additional folders contained in the _PS_CourseTrailer_Template folder. After a lot of trial and error, I discovered that I could manually replace each file if I took them out of that folder. Here's what I did that fixed my problem:
I simply renamed the folder containing everything to template. That's it. All of the additional folders contained within are exactly the same. AE no longer crashes when I relink/replace files.
It seems that newer versions of After Effects have a problem of replacing files if it has to go through certain folder names or older folders it doesn't like. It might help if any of you having replace issues try and rename folders or files and see if it works for you.

Same here. I have been having this problem since CC2017. Very frustrating.
I use proxies from stock libs. Once a cut is approved I license the clip and use "Replace Footage" in the bin and start the crash crash boogie. Really upsets me that something that used to always work is now a pain in the butt.

I thought I'd chime in on this too because it seems as though Adobe is shrugging this one off. This bug has been destroying my workflow. I've filed multiple bug reports from various PP versions and OSX versions. I've been patiently waiting for a fix for this and still nothing.
1. Right click watermarked/scratch audio track in bin.
2. Right click, "Replace Footage"
3. Select new audio clip, click "Open"
4. Premiere Pro blows up in my face.
With that said, I'd like to point out that SOMETIMES it works. I'd guess once every 4 or 5 attempts. But boy is it annoying when you're switching out many files at once. A task that should take seconds suddenly turns into a half hour of fist slamming.
The "Make offline" method seems to be ok as a workaround but still annoying.
This happens on BOTH of my machines - iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) and MacBook Pro (Retna, 15", Mid 2014). Both are currently on OSX version 10.11.6, but I've had this issue on various versions of OSX. Again, pretty much since PP2017.

I have the same problem and I work on PC . Sometimes the same problem occurs when "just" importing regular Footage. I always work with After Effects and Premiere at the same time so maybe the shared memory is the problem ?

​Feature Request/Bug Report Form
This is a major bug that affects an extremely important and time-saving workflow. The last version that had a working Replace function in our experience was 2015.3, so we've been dealing with this bug for a long time now.
