Screen Recorded Clips Cut During Import

This happens to nearly every clip. I use aPowerSoft to screen capture. After screen capturing, I watch the clip in VLC. It's fine. Then I go to import it and Adobe cuts seconds, sometimes minutes, from the end of the clip. They always cut it off the end, and it happens to most of the clips I import. I double check the files in VLC and they play their full duration. See the image for the most egregious offense. Any advice for how to get Adobe to stop auto-cutting the video? It didn't always do this.

I'm not an expert, so please be descriptive if you need more information. I tried clearing the cache once, but that only set me back on having to reload everything without fixing the problem. I can't find any solutions online. My only solution was to convert the video to mp3, then import that and use a still capture for the video, which is a patchwork solution at best and fails when there's any movement on the video.

SOLUTION: APowerSoft claimed it was using constant frame rate at 24fps. It may have been; I have no idea. All I know is that running the files through handbrake, then placing them in Adobe, stopped Adobe from cutting everything short. I ran into the problem of Adobe resizing the image, but that was easily fixable once I realized all I needed was to right click dropdown "scale to frame size."

screen recording apps usually record with a variable frame rate which can cause problems in premiere

Try using Handbrake to convert to a constant frame rate before importing into premiere

None of the solutions above worked for me, I have Premiere Pro 2020 and it still cuts the end of imported video even after changing the framerate and/or file name.

I've seen this issue before with clips of footage that have the same name but different durations.

For example:

VideoRecording1.mov is 5 minutes long. I edit it with no problems.

Two weeks later, I go to edit a new clip, for some reason, I name it VideoRecording1.mov (the same as the old video). This new clip is 10 minutes long.

When I go to edit it, it's not 10 minutes long, it's 5 minutes long, even though VLC shows it as 10.

What's happening is Premiere uses a cache. Sometimes (not always) Premiere references the cache of the wrong file when it has the same name as a previously imported video, even if that video and project are long gone.

The solution has been to completely clear your cache. You can go to Premiere - Preferences - Media Cache and clear it, or, you can do what I recommend and manually navigate to that directory and delete the entire Media Cache and Media Cache Files folders.

~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Media Cache

~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Media Cache Files

Restart Premiere and see if your clips are now their proper duration.

I found another solution, but thank you. I'd tried this before actually, and it didn't work. Maybe Adobe gets confused with similarly titled clips, but I'd never used clips with the same names before. So I don't think it was that.

not sure I understand. but post back if you have any questions. Handbrake can be a little tricky. I think there are some posts here describing the best workflow, so you might want to search the forum..

many many professionals are using this software without issues and I'm one of them. I'm not a crazed evangelist about the software I use, but I have many years experience with avid, fcp1-7, davinci resolve and premiere... Every piece of editing software has issues and foibles...

download this program

https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo/Download

and when you launch it, drop one of your original files and hover the cursor over the video area and tell us what it says in terms of whether the frame rate is constand or variable... then drop one of your converted files over it and see if it's made it constant frame rate.
