This issue has been fixed in Premiere Pro version 23.2. Please update to get the fix.

We have identified a file name issue affecting H.264 and HEVC/H.265 exports on Windows with Premiere Pro 23.1

The issue impacts H.264 and HEVC/H.265 exports to folders with names that use double-byte characters, such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or extended ASCII characters, like accents and umlauts. Affected users will see this message: File importer detected an inconsistency in the file structure of %filename.mp4%. Reading and writing this file’s metadata (XMP) has been disabled.

If you are experiencing this issue, use one of these options:

Please update to version 23.2 where the issue is fixed
The following workarounds are for 23.1
- Choose an export destination folder that uses only single-byte ASCII English characters (no accents, umlauts, etc.)
- Export to a different format, such as Apple ProRes.
- For H.264 exports only: disable hardware-accelerated encoding.

When I restored version 23.0 the problem went away

After the latest update I have the same problem. I use H.264. I have plenty of storage space on my harddrive, so that is not the problem. I have changed to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only and use Software Encoding in Export settings. Still doesn't work. I have also tried different Bitrate settings.

The only thing that works for me is when I export to an external drive or even the SD card. Just so you know 🙂

The workaround is actually disabling hardware-accelerated encoding in the export window. Toggle open the video section and find Performance under Encoding settings. Change it to Software Encoding. Hope this helps.

That did not work for me. I restored to version 23.0 and now it works.

The problem I had is that the name of the export folder had non basic English characters. After changing it the problem went away.

Hello!

Every time I try to export my video, the whole process ends and in the end I get this error:

"The file importer has detected an inconsistency in the file structure of MVI_9999.mp4. Reading and writing of metadata for this file has been disabled. (XMP)"

What should I do?

Hola!

Cada que intento exportar mi video, termina todo el proceso y al final me marca este error:

El importador de archivos ha detectado una incoherencia en la estructura de archivos de MVI_9999.mp4. Se ha deshabilitado la lectura y escritura de los metadatos de este archivo. (XMP)

¿Que puedo hacer?
