Duplicate IDs in Production - consolidate won't work

Hey community,

I am working in Production on a feature doc and I am concerned with an issue for which I can't find a solution.

This issue shows itself in multiple ways. It seems a linking issue and an ID issue:
1 - some clips that are already spread in multiple timelines can be erased from the project panel without Premiere showing the usual warning. If I erase that clip, the asset on the timelines does not disappear.

2 - the same asset - in the project panel and in a stringout - that seems to have multiple IDs, if I "revel in finder" it points to the same correct clip. 

3 - some of the assets that present this issue won't go offline for me to relink them.

4 - when I try to reveal in the project some of the clips, says that the asset has been erased and asks me to look in other projects - still the clip is online and if i reveal in finder it still points to the asset.

 

I tried to put these assets offline and relink them.

I tried to Consolidate duplicates.

We have a bunch of multi-cams and the issue shows with this type of clip. 

 

I am afraid that clips will start disappearing in projects as seems that are not linked to the media, or even worst...

Have you encountered anything like this hell?

Hello Sedef etc.,


As an aside, the way you’ve titled your problem (“Duplicate IDs”) suggests you are talking about project IDs within a production, which is separate and unrelated to what you’ve described.

 

It seems some clips in your timelines have lost their direct connection to the original Source Clips.

 

I suggest you reference the Best Practices and Workflow Guide for Long Form and Episodic Post Production found here.

 

In particular, have a look at page 70 "Understanding Clips in a Production" and also page 71 "Reassociate Source Clips". The "reassociate" command may help you.

 

Hopefully someone with more experience in this issue will be along to offer more experienced advice.

 

R.
