    Like the app?


    Hi @Lazarcatic - There should be an uninstaller that you can download from the sony website.  That will remove all traces of the programs files.

      Hi @Picturebros -  Thanks for submitting your bug report. We need a few more details to try to help with the issue.

       

      Can you check your audio hardware settings and make sure Default Input is set to "No Input"

      Do you have any third party plugins or panels installed?

       

      When troubleshooting, it’s helpful to provide as much detail as possible, as that makes it easier to narrow down the cause of the issue.   Please see, How to Report a Problem.


      Sorry for the frustration.

      Hi @Picturebros - Do you have premiere composer open when this issue occurs?  If you uninstall it do you still have the issue?  Do you have any third party plugins installed?

       

      Can you check your audio hardware settings and make sure Default Input is set to "No Input"

       

      Can you try and hold down "SHIFT" while launching Premiere and check the boxes
      "Reset app preferences" (Backup Preferences first)
      "Clear media cache files"
      "Reset plugin loading cache"
      "Disable third-party plugins (one-time only)"

        Hi Picturebros,

        Sorry to hear about this. Is this happening with any specific project/sequence or all of them? Please share the media specs (format, frame rate, and frame size) and whether you have applied any effects to the clips in the timeline. Also, have you already tried clearing the cache? 

         

        Thanks,

        Sumeet
