Uploading multiple different JPEGS but all show up as the same one in the timeline!

Hi, 

 

So i am an industrial designer trying to put together a video using multiple JPEGS. New to premiere but watched lots of tutorials on this, read instructions etc tried everything including clearing my media cache etc etc. I just cant figure it out! I import my multiple different images (which all have different names Insta 01, 02, 03 etc), then drag them over to my timeline only for them to preview and save out as only one image! Why isnt my video working with all the photos ive imported? Its such a simple video, kinda like a slideshow really. Please can anyone shed some light on this please?? I thought lockdown was driving me crazy but this is on a whole other level!

Resave all images in Ps and make sure they are rgb 8 bits.

Hey guys.

Ive started to notice this issue trying to import Adobe Illustrator files into the Premiere and i kinda found out what solves the problem. this started when i tied to import several images from exports of artboards of the same file.

all of the images no matter what the name was were imported as same document in premiere pro.

so ive decided to dig into it and got here .

however there was no answers here also.

so I tried something else. and got to the properties of the file, in the details section I noticed that they are all having the same title despite the name of the file. and by changing them my problem was all fixed.

It is stupid knowing that this bug is on adobe, either Illustrator or PP. but I suggest this workaround for u guys. maybe it helps

20 May 2022 and still not fixed, so annoying. I have to export PNGs from AI to be able to import images in Premiere since they are unable to fix this JPG issue.

The Problem is the embeded ICC Profile in the JPEG file.

Open your image using adobe Photoshop.

Then go to Edit > Assign Profile

in the Window dialog box, choose "Don't Color Manage This Document".

If you export the JPEG files from Illsutrator, make sure to UNCHECK the "embed ICC profile"

Hi jessicah57075942,

 

I am glad that you were able to solve the issue. I would like to investigate this issue further. Could you please confirm the exact version of Premiere Pro and Illustrator that you were using. Also, if possible please provide us a download link for a few of those sample images with which you were experiencing this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Hi Sumeet, 

 

So the illustrator version i was using was 24.1.1 and it was version 14.0, magician i was using for premiere pro. 

 

So ive saved 3 images out of illustrator for you, here is the link... https://we.tl/t-HAlevH726g 

The only way i could get them to work was open and resave out of photoshop version 21.1.1.

 

And the issue was when i saved the images out of illustrator and brought them into premiere, all the images were previewing as the same 1 image so it made compiling my video a nightmare and didnt save out right either so wasnt just the preview. 

 

Many thanks, 

Jess

This 'issue' pops up once in a while. Its not new.

 

Had no issue importing them and showing the correct image.

Might want to use even numbers instead of 4501.

You're very welcome. I'll delete that sample video from vimeo now.

You'll be happy to know that Psd is also really good for making your own masks and titles and so on, cause you can make stuff with a transparent background and make layers, and import just the layer(s) you want to into PPro.  A lot of people now also use PNG ( from psd save 'as' png ) for some alpha channel stuff.

Good luck !

Jessica, what I put up there as samples should be enough to get you started. Good luck and I'm glad you're using the program to do nice stuff.

 

Be aware, even though it's tempting due to hype, auto dissolves and effects bridging still images ( which have NO VIDEO FRAME HANDLES ... which you don't know about yet ) will cause problems down the line...which is what you would rely on if you put all still images on the same level .... so stick with doing things on different levels and do stuff manually as much as you can, cause that's the best quality in terms of being more accurate etc.

Hi Salvo, 

 

Thank you for all your help. It turns out all i needed to do was open my photos in PS and resave them out and it has now worked perfectly! 

 

But thank you for your replies, you have helped me understand premiere a bit more and its good to know about the image sequences too! 

 

Many thanks 🙂

Hi Ann, 

 

Something so simple has just fixed it for me... So it must be something to do with me saving my images out of illustrator, my settings are set to RGB but maybe premiere just doesnt like illustrator JPEGS. So yes, dropping them into PS and resaving has solved everything! So thank you so much! This is never something i would have figured out from tutorials on my own! 

 

Cant thank you enough! 🙂

This is an odd issue. How are you importing the JPGs into your project? It's as if Premiere is referencing the blue JPG for all of your JPGs. In your Project bin, you could try rightclicking, say, Insta_02  - Make Offline. Then rightclick it again, link media, and try to relink it to the Insta_02 file.

Hi Jeff, 

 

Im just using the import window, double clicking and then ive tried importing one photo at a time plus multiple in one go. 

 

Ive just tried what you suggested but premiere is previewing each photo as the blue one still, even though they clearly arent... 

The weird thing is that it is previewing one of the images correctly (The purple one) but none of the others are correct. 

 

It must be something to do with the images which i created in illustrator and saved out as RGB JPEGS.

 

Thanks

Yes, you can put images in individually and work on them ... the import as sequence is used mostly for time lapse still photos ... where some camera shoots an image every X seconds ( on a timer ) .... and that's mostly what it's used for.

 

In your case you can import each image separately...put them into timeline ( different levels so you can work on transitions etc ) and stretch them out or shrink them to the duration you want, etc.

 

I'll try to demonstrate with plane 1 and 2.

I put plane 1 in level 2 and plane 2 in level 1. I used keyframes to fade out of image 1, so it reveals plane 2 on the lower level...  here are sceen shots ( which suck on this forum and you can hardly see the keyframes for opacity )... but then I show how it looks when exported and put on vimeo now for a short while... I will delete that pretty soon...
