Broken OMF Export - Repeats Audio Clip on track

Explorer ,
Dec 10, 2024 Dec 10, 2024

Copy link to clipboard

Copied

I'm on a Macbook Pro M1 Max - 14.6.1 (23G93)

 

Premiere 25.1

 

The exported OMF file repeats the same audio clip on its track over and over. 

 

I have about 16 clips on track 1 but the OMF just plays the first clip 16 times. They are of the correct length but seem to be pointing to the same audio file as whatever was the first clip on the track. Same thing happens to other tracks. 

 

When the project is opened on the latest Beta it exports correctly.

Hi @core787 

Welcome to the Premiere Pro forums! We are glad to see you here. We need a few more details to try to help with the issue. Please see, How do I write a bug report?

In the meantime have you attempted to export an AAF and see if you have more luck bringing that into the project? Thanks for submitting your bug report. I hope we can help you soon. Sorry for the frustration!

Thanks,

Ian

This is with an OMF that has embedded audio files. Haven't tried with one pointing to a folder of files.

Separate Audio files has the same problem and the exported audio files are just the first clip of each track.

I also have this problem and it's very frustrating. I am the only person in my team to have the legal version of Premiere and the only one unable to deliver files. That's unacceptable.

Same issue here. Found out it was a problem at a bad time. Needed to mix a 30 minute broadcast show in a 14-hour day for a client. Editor delivered broken OMF on a Sunday morning. We couldnt do the mix. My client was upset, then had to use up their weekend to mix out of Premiere. I am stunned that this hasn't been fixed.

When exporting an OMF for audio mix, the result in the DAW is incorrect and repeated audio at every instance.

 

Adobe Premiere Pro 25.1

Files: mp3, MXF 1920 x 1080 23.976, wav

non-multicam, 3 tracks of audio (VO, SOT, Music)

Steps: Open timeline, File>Export>OMF

Expected OMF to recreate audio tracks in DAW just as they are seen/heard in Premiere 25.1

Actual result was that music was correct, but the VO and SOT were the same randowm clip repeated at each edit

Premier Pro Support Team,

I am writing to inquire about the ongoing OMF export issue in premiere pro 25  . This problem is critical to my work, and if it remains unresolved, I may have to consider discontinuing my use of your editing software.

I would greatly appreciate an update on this matter.

Thank you for your attention.

For Adobe people that are monitoring this thread, I would like to add that I have a big project coming up Jan 21-24 that relies exclusively on the OMF export working properly. Is there anyway to fast-track this bug fix? Please?

Try exporting without trimming files (if that’s doable for your project)

I wouldn't expect much of a response as you gave absolutely no data to respond to.

 

So please explain in detail .... what you are doing, what you expect, and what happens instead. In specific details.

 

Along with your complete hardware and media specs ...  OS/CPU/RAM/GPU and the media format/codec data plus any and all effects typically applied.

 

As troubleshooting always requires specific data. "My car isn't starting, please fix your manufacturing" ... that's basically what your post says.  Who could guess what needs fixing?

Same problem here. Premiere Beta did export omf normally(v25.2 Apple silocon/intel). Normal version (25.1) exported only 3 wav-files (of 64). 
macOS Sequoila 15.2/M1pro

 

Hopefully this gets fixes asap.

How did you get my editing software? 

🙂

(Oh, this is a user to user forum, so, that part can usually be left out of the post, and spend the space giving some of the details Neil mentions.)

Though I've not used OMF before, I just exported a short project using both 25.1 and 25.2.0 b76 and they were the same. But my project (using my software :-)) is very simple, but they did open in Audition with several tracks.

Since I updated my editing software to Premiere 25
I can't seem to export a proper OMF file of the project I edited
The same track appears over and over again in ProTools
Not all sound channels appear in the OMF I exported

There was a bug in Premiere Pro 24 that caused similar issues with OMF export, but it was resolved in version 25. In that case, the workaround was to set the audio format to AIF. However, it’s unclear if this is the same issue you’re encountering.

To help diagnose the problem:

  • Can you share your export settings?
  • Have you tried opening the exported OMF in Adobe Audition? If so, does it import and function as expected there?

Hello
I am attaching a screenshot. The issue with OMF export only appears in version 25. In version 24, there are no problems with OMF export. I am confident this is a bug that needs fixing.

My weekly workflow includes exporting OMF files. Next week I have a large project that is very important that OMF export works, and has a tight schedule. Please fix this now.

As a workaround, try opening your Premiere project file in Audition and exporting the OMF there.

Same problem here with omfs using  Premiere 25.1.0 on iMac 3,8 Ghz 8-core Intel Core i7, with Sonoma 14.7

Also, it sometimes crushes while working on audio tracks.

 

I tried to export aafs intead, sometimes they work, but sometimes they don't.

 

Please do something, my income depends on Premiere.

My income also relies on Premiere working properly. The tip of opening a pPro project/sequence in Audition and exporting an OMF from there has been working as a band-aid for me.
