Issue "Fixed". It was a sequence issue. I created a new sequence, copied my entire timeline over, and it works. No idea what the heck happened.

I just tried to export a section of the timeline to see if it was just a playback issue or a full on problem. The exported clip does not have any of the audio that should be on Tracks 2 and 3. Only Track 1 audio!

I'm SO CLOSE to finishing a project and just discovered that only audio on Track 1 is playing. I've been editing for hours and this just suddenly happened. Earlier today other Audio Tracks (2/3) WERE playing. I had muted a Audio Track 2 earlier to better hear Track 1. However I unmuted that track long ago. Tracks 2 and 3 will not play any sound right now. I deleted audio and replaced it again, no difference. The M - mute buttons on the tracks are NOT selected. I tried selecting them and unselecting them, no change. I closed and restarted Premier, no change. I updated to the latest Premiere (didn't realize I was behind), no change. Nothing is working and all I need to do is keyframe some background music to complete this project. What is going on?

Over 7 months later and this is still a massive issue. In fact is worse now. Now between EVERY audio file I have to close Adobe Audition and restart it or else the Effects Rack presets I made just clear out. Sometimes I fail to notice and wonder why the equalizing on my audio files sounds off. "Oh right Audition screwed up AGAIN." Seriously frustrating that a known bug just seems to go ignored for more than half a year.

This. The Mac you listed as "ancient" is a dual processor workstat with 8 cores vs a 4 core laptop. Also double the memory of the laptop. Also the lalptop video card is only a little bit above integrated graphics. Luckily that laptop does have Thunderbolt ports. So you could plug in a more powerful external GPU. That would vastly improve render times and export times. It may help scrubbing but that's hard to say in this case.

140mb isn't enough to edit photos let alone videos. Get yours some quality additional storage. If you are that limited on storage how out of date is the computer itself? I work in 4k so my videos are more sizable, but my standard weekly videos average between 1.5GB to 3GB.

Or should I finally bite the bullet and start transcoding my 4k footage to Proxies for my editing? I produce 2-3 short YouTube videos a week. Spending a bunch of time transcoding will add a lot of overhead(storage needs) and time to my workflow. I haven't tried it yet to decide if it is worth my time.

I'm debating making some system upgrades to improve my editing experience. I work with 4k footage almost exclusively. (100mbps mp4) After a handful of cuts, some motion graphics, and maybe some optical flow on slightly slowed down footage (75-85% on 30fps footage), I start to get fairly poor timeline scrubbing and even playback issues. As footage goes from clip to clip in an edit it will drop frames and I'll have to stop, wait a second, then restart playback to smooth it out. So I'm just trying to decide what will be my best bang for the buck to increase my performance to smooth out my workflow. Current system specs: -AMD Ryzen 5 1600 CPU (6-cores, 3.2 GHz, overclocked to 3.8GHz) -16GB DDR 4 G.Skill PC-2800 RAM -Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 4GB GPU -Western Digital Blue NVME m.2 SSD (Workflow/scratch disc for editing, all footage is on here and exported to here.) -Samsung 850EVO SSD (Windows and Adobe CC are installed on this drive, as is Adobe Cache.) Money is a little tight right now but I think I can justify making at least one upgrade. I'm just debating what is the most logical decision. Do I bump up to 32GB of RAM? An 8-core Ryzen 7 2700X (3.8GHz Base clock) CPU? Or a newer Geforce graphics card like a 1070TI? I'm leaning toward the processor making the best improvement, but I honestly don't know. My CPU and GPU really aren't overly taxed while working (rendering sure but not just scrubbing), but I know Premiere is pretty poorly optimized overall so that isn't a shock. Any input is welcome. I'm tech savvy but I'm at an impasse in my own head as to what is the best value choice for the moment. [Moderator note: moved to appropriate forum.]

I'm suddenly experiencing the same thing today. Edited a couple videos over the past few days with the library in Thumbnail mode without issue. Today I can't do anything in the timeline without it lagging badly. I just switched to list mode like you said and it fixed the issue, but I'd sure like to have Thumbnails in my project library.

And it just happened with three more clips. All of which are in the midst of a heavy dialog edit area that would be a serious pain to re-clip. So what the heck? This is a very new problem for me.

Just deleted the clip, reclipped it out of the source file and added it to the timeline again. Now Warp Stabilizer is working. Anyone have an idea why that is? It is the same clip at heart.

Since the latest update I've been having an issue with Warp Stabilizer. Namely I will apply it and it won't analyze the clip. If I try to manually click "Analyze" it starts for a split second then just goes back to not being analyzed, as if I hadn't clicked the button at all. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to this happening. I tried deleting the effect and reapplying it, restarting Premiere, restarting Premiere and reapplying, and Restarting the computer. One or two times that this has happened to me, deleting and reapplying seemed to work. This time however it isn't working at all. No matter what I do Warp Stabilizer currently will not analyze on one specific clip. I haven't tried all the clips on my timeline yet that I was going to apply it to.

I agree, it is ridiculous. And if you search it has been a problem for YEARS. Everybody just offers nonsense workarounds, no actual solutions. I can never get a straight answer as to WHY this basic feature of Premiere basically doesn't work. Sorry. I was legitimately almost done a project I've been working on all day when I replied to you. I went to export and sure enough I too am now battling failing exports (GPU Render Error).

Are you applying a LUT with Lumetri Color? I recently found that my footage would NEVER render, not matter what I did, when I applied a LUT under the Creative tab on Lumetri Color. The LUT was even an Adobe provided one, not one I bought from someone or created myself. It simply always failed out. That was a strange development in the last two weeks.

I think I figured it out. I nested my clip as a sequence and had to fly blindly to figure out where my speed ramp started and stopped. Applying my keyframing and blur, then it worked. Why wouldn't the blue effect just work on a clip instead of a nested sequence?

So I'm trying to use the Directional Blur effect in Premiere, but it seems to have an invisible timer. Is that so? I apply it to my clip, keyframe where I want the blur, set the parameters, and watch the clip. Sure enough the blur just stops after a few frames, well short of my intended key framing. I did a walk around of a subject and speed ramped as I walked behind them. Adding some blur to the sped up footage would look much nicer, but the blur just stops mid movement. So is there a time limit on Directional Blur? I tried applying a second layer of Blur effect and keyframing it after the first one, but that didn't make any difference. It was like the first one was overriding.

I feel your pain. This happens to me on every other project. I have a GTX 980 with up to date drivers and it happens all the time. It happens with Lumetri color and sometimes Warp Stabilizier. I'm likely going to try a different NLE soon as NO suggested "fix" ever works. It seems like I just keep tweaking and changing my videos until they aren't what I wanted and it eventually exports. Try sending your project to Adobe Media Encoder and exporting via CPU Rendering not GPU Render (Cuda). It will take a long time but at least you may get your project completed. I've made numerous GPU Render Error posts. Heck I'm saving screen captures and pictures to make a compilation video about it, that's how often it happens.

This is getting tiresome. Back in December 2017 when Audition Updated I made a post about how after a few audio files, suddenly one of my self created Effect Presets didn't have all of it's elements in there anymore. Effect Rack Presets - Suddenly Empty This was acknowledged as a bug, and seemed to be rectified somewhere along the line. Fast forward to April 2018, I update Audition again, and sure enough it is happening AGAIN. I submitted a bug report about this, but it is rather irritating that a Bug that was supposedly being fixed, or was fixed, is back with the next update.

That system should be plenty strong for Adobe. Beyond plenty strong. Is it just going to 100% any time you are working or when you try and do certain things? Sorry I'm not fully understanding.

I work on dual 24" 1080 monitors. I plan to step up my primary screen to a 27" or larger 1440p monitor soon. Of course after I posted this I masked another transition and this issue didn't happen ONCE to me. That is the first time it has ever worked smoothly for me though.

Ok, this is just a minor frustration that can really drive me nuts. When I'm trying to mask a path on a clip to reveal an image below said clip, I free draw the mask (inverted). When doing so, as I grab the corners of the mask, invariably I end up grabbing the non-visible little arch tools that give the sides shape. Is there some way to avoid doing this, like ever? I can count the number of times I've wanted to arch my mask on one hand. I usually use like a door frame, pillar, or some other straight edge to create the mask that I want, so the arch is extremely unhelpful. Is there some way to disable this? I feel like if I had a much larger monitor and was able to blow up the work area I'd be able to see the actual corners clearer and avoid this, but I don't currently have that luxury. This image shows what I mean, and what I'm trying to avoid:

Well I got it to go. I backed up my project files to my backup drive, and completely reinstalled windows and Adobe CC fresh. All the latest drivers, updates, etc. Premiere was finally able to export the file after that. Seems like a cache, driver, program issue in there somewhere. I just hope it doesn't become a habit. THAT SAID, I did still have one issue. I exported it and noticed I had failed to relink one item in the project so I fixed that. Then I shipped the project over to AME for export (First time I did it direct from Premiere). The AME Export failed. My computer froze, screen went black, and it just straight up failed. I started back up, checked for any issues I could think of, then exported from Premiere. Premiere exported just fine again. Some reason AME just didn't make it. I've found I think I have more export issues using AME directly vs exporting via Premiere. I know they are linked but its a strange occurence I have noticed. My computer: -AMD Ryzen 5 1600 6-core processor @ 3.8GHz -16GB G.Skill PC2800 DDR 4 RAM -Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 GPU -Samsung 850EVO 250GB SSD for Boot drive/Premiere Install Drive -Western Digital NVME M.2 250GB SSD for Scratch Disk / Project files (Export to this drive) Camera: -Panasonic Lumix G7 filming at 4k, 30FPS (100mbps bitrate) Export Settings: Yesterday when it was at it's worst I changed a LOT of variables in Export settings. If I tried to export once I tried a dozen times yesterday. This is where I ended up. This was basically "YouTube 4k" preset with just a change to CBR at 45 Mbps. Usually I would do this but also Max Render Quality and Depth. I am really starting to wonder if it isn't something with my camera footage. I think my troubles did get worse when I switch to this camera. Granted I also switched to 4k footage, and it was around the same time as the 2018 update. All happened in short order of one another. To create my sequence settings I import all of my project files then I drag the first clip into the sequence and let Premiere do it for me. I have noticed that this sets the Editing Mode as "Red Cinema". I don't know if that makes any difference. I thought it odd, but any time I've tried changing it didn't seem to make much difference. I don't know if that is just the default 4K editing mode: I know I'm probably being frustrating, mainly because I'm frustrated. Any project I put any serious work into ends up giving me these problems. And I have plans to expand into even bigger projects over this year so I'm concerned about where things are headed.

What format are you recording in? 1080P 30fps? 24fps? And what are you export settings? YouTube compresses whatever you upload to it. For 1080P 24/30fps footage their recommended Bitrate is 10mbps. For 50/60fps footage it is 15mbps. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1722171?hl=en Personally I export a bit above their bitrate. It results in significantly larger files but I feel like less is loss in YouTube's compression on their end with that. For 1080 footage I export at 18-20MBps, kind of on a whim which I pick. For 4k Footage I output at around 45-50 MBps as their 4k 24/30 Bitrate is 35-45. Basically when you upload to YouTube you will ALWAYS lose some quality. Produce a better product to send to them and you will have less chance of it ending up bad. That said it is of course a "law of diminishing returns" thing. If you crank up the bitrate to even what your camera is recording at for your export, you won't see a massive improvement once its on YouTube, but you will have a massively sized file. One thing I've noticed is 4k footage just looks crisper on YouTube(duh). By that I mean I feel that since I switched to 4k, my uploads don't seem to lose as much in the upload process as my 1080P footage used to. I too would see some loss in the uploaded video, but the 4K seems truer to what I produced.

So as I see it, Lumetri Color only works 1/2 to 2/3 of the time. The rest of the time it sends me chasing my tail with export and render issues for hours at a time. Until sometimes I end up removing it entirely from clips or entire sections of a video. So should I just stop using it? With the latest 2018 update now its causing an issue where my computer crashes when the export fails. So it is failing in spectacular fashion now. All I do is some basic correction and sharpening. It is rare I even touch colors. Its all just exposure, white balance, shadows, contrast, etc. So is there some other way to handle this that I'm missing? Some way that will work consistently? I had a LOT of work to get done this weekend and I've now lost an entire day to Export issues AGAIN, and it seems to be down to Lumetri color again.

I think I'm going to roll back as well. Today I've tried half a dozen times to export a video in H.264 and it fails after about 45-50 minutes no matter what changes I make. None of the bugs I had previously noted seem to be fixed. And now I swear I'm seeing some new ones. I'm going to open a document and make notes of bugs as they pop up to make reports.

"Fix the clip" is easier said than done when there is no clear cut reason what is wrong. I deleted, reimported, and reapplied effects to a few clips that seemed "broken", to no change. I finally got it to export via CPU Acceleration and "Use Preview". It took about 3 hours to export, but it happened. There is no clear cut reason I can see why applying basic correction with Lumetri color "breaks" a clip. Is there some explanation of this somewhere? Every Troubleshooting guide and Hardware guide officially from Adobe is out of date as far as I can tell. Seems like they want us to crowd source fixing problems.

No lie, as soon as this project is done and uploaded I'm beginning filming on my next project with is a computer upgrade video. In which I replace that ancient GTX 660 with a GTX 980. I just need to get this project complete first. I have seen posts about people with 980s having render issues as well though. I would invest in a Titan Xp if there was some garauntee my issues would be gone, but no one can garauntee that. The system requirements list from Adobe is wildly out of date.
