Trim media limit reached on audio 2

[Nern0]

 Hello guys!
I try to drag the audio to the beginning, but then I get this 'Trim media limit reached on audio 2', I have already tried it with the ripple edit tool but that didn't work either, how do I fix this?

NOTE: Can this be explained in small steps since I recently got premiere pro.

It means there is audio on track 2 that is preventing you to trim your clip in V1/A1.

This is basic editing skills.

Might want to get yourself a subcription at Linkedin/Learning as Premiere has a steep learning curve.

Hello there, thank you for your reply.

I really appreciate it that you can help me with this problem

So, what I need to do now?

[Ann Bens]

Not sure what you are trying to do but lock A2.

[Nern0]

I'm trying to make a fortnite montage, and when I kill someone I want it to match it with the beat and that's why I try to drag it, and locking is not working.

As you can see there is a box completely empty, I also want the audio to get there and when I drag it it no longer matches the beat.

May I ask? Do you have Discord so we can communicate better to solve this problem.

You cannot extend the audio to the left as there is no more audio to work with. See the white trangle in the left corner.

You can move the audio to the left, or trim one of the first 3 clips to make it fit.

[Nern0]

Yeah, that's the problem if I move it to left it does not match anymore with the beat, and that's annoying for me. I know now it's not working, but is there no other option to fix it, because I really want it to match it with the beat.

I see that you did edited your message how I can trim it?

click on this thing on both the audio and video track so it looks like this, then it should be ok.

I have a similar problem, and I know about premiere. For me this is more like a random error.. as the clips lasts 2 hours and 9 mins but when dragged to premiere it says that it is only 2 hours and 8 mins.. the last min is gone from the clip, before dragging it to the time line.. but when I get to the actual end of video and one bit is missing when I try to drag I get same error.

If the footage is variable framerate convert to constant framerate with Handbrake or Shutter Encoder before bringing into Premiere.

hi, i'm editing a movie reaction and for some odd reason the movie footage is cut off past the 5 minute mark due to "trim media limit reached on audio 2". only the footage is deleted but not the movie itself and there is no way for me to recover it. any help?
