The Loop command Ctrl-L is a toggle. You can place the LOOP toggle-button on the program monitor controls using the + button to add it.

You do not want to put your files into the "Program Files" folder...   If you paste the below file path into Windows Explorer, it will take to you the holding folder you want:   %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common   First Adobe was using "Essential Graphics" as the folder for holding mogurts, however they changed that to "Motion Graphics Templates". So whichever one you have, but 12.1.2 uses the later...   I was able to simply add my folder and then copy in the graphics, it seems to work fine, your mileage may vary!   ... View more

ivanb81780302  wrote Well that's just great.  When does this software actually save the media then??  What is it actually saving?  Why does it not save the edited clips in the timeline??  Explain that one. Unfortunately there is a culture of 'blame the software' around here. It actually works to the disadvantage of people especially newer ones or the uninformed. Just blame the software and let it frustrate you. It's better to have a bit more humility especially around here with those experts above that have been trying to help you... anyway, the things you are saying and your 'frustration' is harming your prospect of really learning this complicated professional software.

So it does sound like you need the footage in AE, to do the tracking.

It doesn't sound like you are doing anything with the actual clip you are sending over to AE. if not, I would suggest just making the title in AE, and importing that comp into PP and laying it over the video. You can modify it in AE whenever you want, and you'll see the changes in PP right away, sometimes without even saving the changes yet in AE. ... View more

When a proxy is correctly made, you essentially (in the PP monitors) can not tell it apart from the actual footage. IE: When the PROXY DIMENSIONS are correct, there are no bars on the side of the video. Here's a recent thread where the OP couldn't tell if he was using proxies or not (ie: no bars) how to tell if proxies are present and connected You said you were editing 4K, usually it's one of these two 4,096 by 2,160, 3,840 by 2,160 4096 = 1.9:1 (aspect ratio) 3840 = 1.78:1 So a 1024x540 default proxy will work with the 4096 footage, but if you use that with 3840 footage you image when viewing proxies will be squished in and have bars on the side. Just from viewing the 1 frame of your guy in the grey hoodie, obviously it has the bars, but it also appears a bit squished in to me. ... View more

It's probably Windows. You may need a clean install on your desktop. Whenever that time comes (every couple of years) I retire the current boot drive, purchase a new drive and start there. Thus I don't change the current system drive, and I can always boot from that again. (especially if I'm missing some files, or need to check some settings, etc) Depending on what hardware that current drive is, I may reuse it eventually as a secondary drive, or put it back in that computer when I move that machine down my usage line. ...

Neil is very knowledgeable, but I think the explanation above is not correct. When a proxy is correctly made, you essentially (in the PP monitors) can not tell it apart from the actual footage. IE: When the PROXY DIMENSIONS are correct, there are no bars on the side of the video. Here's a very recent thread where the OP couldn't tell if he was using proxies or not (ie: no bars) how to tell if proxies are present and connected You said you were editing 4K, usually it's one of these two 4,096 by 2,160, 3,840 by 2,160 4096 = 1.9:1 (aspect ratio) 3840 = 1.78:1 So a 1024x540 default proxy will work with the 4096 footage, but if you use that with 3840 footage you image when viewing proxies will be squished in and have bars on the side. Just from viewing the 1 frame of your guy in the grey hoodie, obviously it has the bars, but it also appears a bit squished in to me. Best Proxy Size: 4096 = divided by 4 = 1024x540 3840 = divided by 3 = 1280x720 I don't know what the problem could be on your system. I would suggest checking the paths of everything, via File Explorer and the paths PP is using. You might want to have a quick look at the 'scale' property of the items in your project that are appearing incorrectly, just to insure they are at 100% and not causing any problems. If that doesn't lead you to anything, how about recreating the proxies and putting them in place again. Of course from the beginning of this, you hopefully saved a copy of the original project file under a different name but in the same folder as to original/current project, before you tried doing all these things. Recreate the proxies and try attaching them. If that would work, you might consider a different proxy size, ie: w/out the bars. ... View more

You can also open up "Disk Management" Type this in your local search or windows menu or RUN it: diskmgmt.msc This will give you a screen where you can (right-click) on a drive and assign it a drive letter, then each time that hard-drive is on or turned on, it will be given that drive letter.

R Neil Haugen PrPro uses those bars to show that proxies are being used Sorry Neil, I'm trying to follow along here... I had some 'bars' on my proxies when the proxy dimensions were not a multiple of the original footage, (like using 1024x540 proxy with 3840x2160 clips (1280x720 = 1/3 of both dimension so you get no (letterbox type) bars))  but I can't seem to find any 'bars'. Where are they at, ie: on what part of the screen? Are they like a letter box on the source or program monitors? BTW: When I create my proxies thru PP they are actually created with AME. So, not sure if that qualifies as the: "internal proxy creation process" ... View more
