@KazuTa I replied on your other post. Short answer: the Reassociate command you found is to help in cases of unintentional clip moving; it isn't needed when breaking apart a project to a production. I also linked to the documentation PDF for Productions, which has a page on how to do the migration you're attempting. Hope it helps!

@KazuTa the key is to keep all the projects open as you do this initial breaking apart. Yes you'll end up with a lot of projects open, and you should do File > Save All often! If you don't keep all the projects open, they won't "see" the clips move and therefore you'll have the experience you describe of clips in a sequence not knowing that their source clips have moved. Also, you should be dragging the items from project to project, do not copy/paste.
See p. 73 of the Best Practices Guide (Working with Productions > Migrating an Existing Project to a Production > If your work is a single project file): https://adobe.ly/PremiereProGuide – click "Get File" on that link to download the PDF.
The whole chapter "Working with Productions" is an in-depth documentation of how the feature works.

The Production panel is listening for changes to the Production folder on disk. If you manually drop a .prproj in there, it will show up in the Production panel. This is a perfectly fine way to add a project to your Production. We created "Add Project to Production" mainly for projects that are coming from outside the production that you want to incorporate. For that you should use Add Project to Production. But in your case, you are really just manually syncing, in a way. So there's no need to use that command, just drop it directly in the folder.
The key here is to just make sure when creating this new project on your end, always create a brand new project. Don't duplicate an existing one. This will avoid any issues with Duplicate IDs.

@KazuTa If you both are working with non-syncing Productions, meaning you have your own cloned copies then when you share a new project to the other person, they should just drop it directly into their Production folder. There's no need to use the Add Project to Production in this strict example.
However, if you host the Production on LucidLink directly, then you both are looking at the same Production, and there's no need to send the project at all. The other editor will see your project as soon as you make it.

@dalebenedict Video codecs can be identified either be a human-readable name, like "Advanced Video Codec (AVC)" or "Apple ProRes 422 HQ", or they can be identified in software using their "FourCC" code. FourCC is a four-character code that video files can have written into them, so that the playing software knows what codec the video is.
avc1, apcs, apcn etc that you listed are FourCC codes. I'm not aware of a canonical list of all the codes, but this is a pretty good list I found online: https://softron.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/207695697-List-of-FourCC-codes-for-video-codecs
You usually don't see the fourcc codes listed in software, most video editing and playback software will display using the human readable name. So for example "avc1" is AVC aka H.264 in Premiere Pro's export settings. "apcs" is "Apple ProRes 422 (LT)" which you can find inside Premiere Pro if you export using QuickTime MOV format.
I hope that helps!

I would be happy to advocate with our team to make improvements here, but I have to admit it sounds like these suggestions are things that already exist in Premiere Pro. There are two states an editor might be in where we put in specific UI to try to help them out:
First, every sequence starts out as a "Text-Based Editing" sequence for purposes of transcription. This means that as you edit in clips, the transcripts attached to the source clips automatically stitch together to form the dynamic sequence transcript. We believe this is the right default for most people.
If some or all of your clips are not transcribed, you will see an alert banner at the top of the transcript saying "# source clips have not been transcribed" with a big blue "Transcribe" button. You can even twirl open that banner and de-select any clips you may not want transcribed:
In this way, we try to guide editors towards creating the source transcripts they need to use Text-Based Editing successfully. As you can see the empty state text in this case even says "Transcribe your source clips to view your sequence transcript."
Second, there is the question of an editor understanding that if they manually switch to a static transcription that the transcript no longer updates as they edit. As @Stan Jones pointed out, we've had a dialog warning about that from the very beginning. It says rather clearly (in my opinion) "Your transcript will not update as you edit".
Given these two mitigations that have been in place since Text-Based Editing has been released, what modifications or additions are actually being suggested here @Kevin-Monahan @R Neil Haugen ?

In/Out Duration is important enough that it gets a dedicated Timecode label in the Program Monitor! Look for the gray timecode area in the bottom right of the monitor (see my screenshot). That is a live-updating In/Out Duration.
Additionally, you can open the Timecode panel (Window > Timecode) and set one of the rows to be In/Out Duration and put that panel wherever you want.

@Citizen_Sam While updating, why not update to 2025? Two questions for you:
What are the specs of the system? Mac (Intel or Apple silicon?) or Windows? What CPU/GPU? Which OS version?
If you download and install Premiere Pro (Beta) from Creative Cloud (go to the Apps section then Beta), you'll get version 25.2 Beta installed next to your existing 24.6.4. How does the Beta 25.2 perform?
Thanks!

What was previously called the "Master" track is now called the "Mix" track. It is exactly the same functionality, just a change in name. You can see it in your screenshots after Audio Track 3 (A3). This renaming happened in fall 2020.

Hi @invisibleavatar are you using Premiere Pro Beta? If so, this is a project index file created by Premiere Pro to enable the Media Intelligence visual search now available in the Beta version. They are harmless to delete but they will be regenerated the next time you open that project. More information here: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/media-intelligence-and-search-panel.html

@arewenotmen Premiere Pro sequences have two modes when it comes to transcripts. The default mode is for Text-Based Editing, where the transcript is created dynamically by combining the transcripts from each source clip. So the workflow is that the source clips are all transcribed, and then in the sequence they just automatically assemble into your sequence transcript. In this way if you delete a clip, it's transcript also disappears, etc.
The other mode, which is what happens when you choose "Generate Static Transcript", takes the audio from your sequence at that point in time and transcribes it. If you change the sequence (trim, remove a clip, etc) you'll need to re-transcribe, because it's not dynamic and it's just a static representation of that one point in time.
In your case, split and merge buttons are missing because you're in the first mode (dynamic) and so the sections of transcripts are controlled automatically by the clip bounds. You can see this if you add an edit point in the audio, it will split the transcript at that point. If you want to fix the speaker by splitting a segment and then changing the speaker, you should go back to the source clip and fix it in that transcript. The change you make there will then flow automatically into your edit sequence transcript. Just press F to Match Frame from your sequence to that clip, and in the Text panel you now see the source transcript and the split/merge buttons are there.
I hope that helps!

@NemoRoman Thanks for sticking with me – you gave one extra clue there that is the answer (working across projects). Premiere Pro can, optionally, write markers into the XMP metadata with the clip on disk. In this way you can have the behavior your describe, where a marker added to a subclip also shows up on the original clip, and across projects. But it's happening because the marker gets added to the media file, outside of the project data, and then all clips referencing that media read it out again. So, you used to have that preference on, and now it's off. You can find it in Preferences > Media > Write clip markers to XMP.

The core behavior described here – putting a marker on a subclip and having the marker show up also in the original clip, I don't think ever worked. Subclips in Premiere Pro don't maintain a relationship to the original clip (like they do in other NLEs). They are their own new clip, and so the marker sets are not synced. Any markers on the original clip at the time of subclipping do travel to the subclip, but then that's the end of the marker relationship. I'm not aware of any changes to this any time recently.

@yash-lucid thanks for sending that recording, it's really helpful to see what you're seeing. When your Project panel is in Icon or Freeform view (yours is in Icon view) and you click on a thumbnail, it creates a mini-player on that clip. That's why you see a blue timeline bar with a little playhead. When that bar or playhead is clicked, Premiere Pro will play back that clip or sequence inside the mini player, including playing sound. This will stop the playback of the sequence, otherwise you'd have two audio sources playing at the same time.
The only way I'm aware to avoid this is to work in List view. I'll take this as feedback to the team, though, that it might be nice to be able to turn off this mini-player view if it would be interrupting your main playback.

Hi @Imageflux Inc I think what you're seeing could be an issue we are working on happening in macOS 15 where the filler detection model is not able to run. It's a separate model from the main transcription model, so you can transcribe even if maybe you can't detect fillers. To know for sure, could you have the Mac user try the Premiere Pro Beta version (downloaded separately in the Creative Cloud app)? It has a fix for this and should be able to create the fillers. Thanks.

@LucasSantos This is a bug that unfortunately made it into Premiere Pro 25.1. It will be fixed in Premiere Pro 25.2 which is not yet released. It only occurs when the video track height is at the minimum height, so increasing the track height will work around it. Also, you could download Premiere Pro Beta which has the fix, or, you could use Creative Cloud desktop application to revert back to Premiere Pro 25.0.
I'm sorry about this, I know it's frustrating!

@Geoffrey37968971duzb Good news, there are two different options that can help. First of all, the clip is becoming selected because you have Sequence > Selection Follows Playhead turned on. This means that when the playhead moves, the clip underneath it is selected. This feature respects the enabled tracks, so I'm guessing you only have that bottom track enabled in the track header. So, you can turn off this setting and you won't have the clip selected.
Second, the Markers panel has an option in the panel menu (three horizontal lines) called "Ignore Timeline selection" where it wont change its display based on what is selected in the timeline.
Hopefully either of those options will help!

No, this will not work. Premiere Pro is built around the concept of accessing media files from a file system. It can be local attached storage or a network volume, but it needs to be a file system that resolves to a file path.

This change is specifically referring to the GPU Rendering option found in Project settings. The renderer there refers to the compositing and creation of the final frame you see in the program monitor (and that's used to encode in an export).
Hardware encoding in the export setting refers to using dedicated GPU hardware to take that final frame and encode it to a certain format. That is not changing.

@scrozier first thing to try is confirm the Media Intelligence add-on is installed in Creative Cloud:
Quit Premiere Pro
Open Creative Cloud desktop application
Click on the Apps heading, then the Beta apps section and locate Premiere Pro (Beta)
Click on the "..." button and choose "Get add-ons"
Do you see the Media Intelligence add-on listed as installed? If not, click "Add".
If it was installed, could you try making a new empty project and importing those clips?
Let me know if any of those things help, we'd like to figure out what's going on here. Thanks!

@lehestro I'll make sure to get this to the right team, I'd imagine any duplicated projects should maintain the column sizing and order.
But also I wanted to direct you to a little-known feature of the Project panel: Project View Presets. You can find them in the panel menu (the three horizontal lines next to the project/bin name in the tab). These let you make keyboard shortcut-able presets of how the Project panel is configured which includes which columns are turned on and in what order as well as some of the other Project panel view settings. This way you can always be one key press away from your desired setup, even when opening a project from someone else.

@Mel_Esss In addition to what Kevin suggested, do you by chance have Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, or iCloud Drive syncing your computer's Documents folder? I've seen some cases where syncing is turned on for the Documents folder, and the system gets into a state where the Documents folder contents appear to be there but are really in the cloud and being downloaded on demand. This can cause problems for applications like Premiere Pro which write important cache files to the Documents folder (and others in your user account home folder). When those files aren't where they should be, or have a lag in becoming available when Premiere Pro needs them, it can lead to very strange behaviors like you're describing. Just a guess!

@Siah_Clark No, there's no functionality in the keyboard shortcuts in Pr to simulate double presses or anything like that. I'm not sure how you could have a keyboard preset that would cause this to happen, I just suggested trying the default again as a test.
In your pre-existing custom keyboard preset, search for "Edit Marker" and you'll see the command. Is it mapped to any keys?
