June 2022 Release (Version 22.5)

Issue with sending clips to Audition

If you try to open an audio/video clip or sequence in Audition (Edit > Edit in Adobe Audition > Sequence), a warning dialog appears asking you to install the latest version of Audition (even if you are using the latest version).

To work around this issue, click OK in the warning dialog and it works correctly.  Opening the .prproj in Au via native import (File > Import) also works correctly.

Premiere Pro is unable to publish videos directly to Facebook

The login to Facebook may fail. Even if the login is successful, the upload will be rejected by Facebook. As a workaround, media should be exported to the local computer and then uploaded via the Facebook website.

April 2022 Release (Version 22.3)

Premiere Pro stops playback at around 34:46 (Fixed in v22.3.1)

For some users, playback or rendering may stop around 00:34:46:00 in the timeline.  After this happens, audio and video will no longer play back anywhere in the timeline.  Exports in Premiere Pro and Media Encoder also hang at about the same point.

This issue occurs in the following scenarios:

• Audio present in the timeline
• Audio present on two or more tracks
• Timeline longer than 34:46

This issue is fixed in Premiere Pro version 22.3.1. 

Rendering issues

December 2021 Release (Version 22.1.1)

Plug-in compatibility issues

Premiere Pro 22.1.1 introduced a bug that impacts third-party After Effects plugins that work in Premiere Pro, such as those from BorisFX, Red Giant, Digital Anarchy, and other vendors. The bug impacts plugin functions that request a frame from Premiere Pro, such as a thumbnail image. 

For more information on affected plugins and workarounds, see this community post.

Out of memory errors on M1 Macs

If Premiere Pro or Media Encoder is experiencing out-of-memory errors on M1-based Macs, adjusting the amount of memory allocated to Adobe applications may help decrease or eliminate the occurrence of these errors. You can try increasing the amount of memory that the operating system uses to achieve a 50% balance between Adobe and other applications/OS.

To work around this issue:

In the memory allocation area in the Memory preferences dialog (Preferences > Memory), it shows the amount of RAM available to Adobe and other applications.

1. Change the value listed for other applications to represent 50% of the total installed RAM.
2. Restart Adobe application to activate new memory allocation.

October 2021 Release (Version 22.0)

Hang when using After Effects 22.0 compositions in Premiere Pro 22.0 or Media Encoder 22.0

This issue occurs when:

• Importing or working with After Effects compositions via Dynamic Link in Premiere Pro
• Using Motion Graphics templates (MOGRTs) created in After Effects. Premiere Pro may become unresponsive while loading a MOGRT.

A fix for this issue is available now in After Effects 22.0.1.

PREMIERE PRO HANGS ON LAUNCH ON MACOS SYSTEMS

Follow the steps in this knowledge base article.

H.264 422 MEDIA WILL DROP FRAMES WITH DEFAULT HALF-RESOLUTION PLAYBACK

This is a capture format used with cameras such as the Sony A7siii, and others. This issue typically occurs when playback resolution is set to half.  

To avoid this issue, switch to full resolution OR enable High Quality Playback using the wrench menu in the Program Monitor. If you need half-resolution playback only, download the latest Beta versions of Premiere Pro and After Effects, which have the fix for this issue.

We will include this fix in the release versions in the near future. In the interim, consider these workarounds:

• Set playback resolution to full and enable high-quality playback from the program monitor wrench menu. 

• If needed, revert to Premiere Pro 15.4.1

• Use the current public Betas of Premiere Pro and After Effects.

Hang when using After Effects MOGRTs in Premiere Pro 

Premiere Pro 22.0 hangs or freezes when using Motion Graphics Template (MOGRTs) that were created in After Effects. The MOGRT often gets stuck at 15% while loading and cause the application to become unresponsive. A fix for this issue is available now in the Premiere Pro (Beta). We will bring the fix into the release version in the near future. In the interim, consider these workarounds:

• Avoid using MOGRTs created in After Effects.  

• Revert to Premiere Pro 15.4.1 and After Effects 18.4.1. 

• Use the current public Betas of Premiere Pro and After Effects.

After Effects MOGRTs that use Lumetri parameters fail to render in Premiere Pro

MOGRTs created in previous versions of After Effects that use Lumetri will fail to apply the Lumetri adjustments.  You can see the Lumetri parameters for the MOGRTs in the Essential Graphics panel, but adjusting them has no effect.

Workarounds:

• Recreate the MOGRT in the current release of After Effects and re-import into the current version of Premiere Pro.

• Avoid using the Lumetri effect in MOGRTs.

• Revert to Premiere Pro 15.4.1 and After Effects 18.4.1.

May 2021 Release (Version 15.2)

• Preview glitches or crashes can occur when using Premiere Pro 15.2 or After Effects 18.2 on systems with Nvidia drivers if you have enabled Image Sharpening or Antialiasing - FXAA in Nvidia Control Panels. For more information and a resolution to this issue, see Preview glitch or crash after resizing Preview panels.
• Issue: The Lumetri Scopes shift to a dimmed UI after bringing its tabbed panel forward in a panel grouping. This happens when the Display Color Management preference is enabled and the Windows Display Setting option of Use HDR is set to On.
  Workaround: Click on a video thumbnail in the Project Panel or Media Browser. Or toggle on and off the Comparison View in the Program Monitor. This makes the Lumetri Scopes UI update to the expected brightness level and it remains at that brightness until its panel is moved behind another panel.  Undocking the Lumetri Panel can also prevent it from shifting back to the dimmed state.
• Issue: If you are running Premiere Pro 15.2 on a Windows laptop with an NVIDIA GPU device and you have NVIDIA drivers which are out of date, you might experience instability during application launch or during your editing workflow.  
  Resolution: Update the NVIDIA drivers on your system to the latest ones for your system. For more information, see Crash in Premiere Pro 15.2 and After Effects 18.2 on Windows laptops with older NVIDIA graphics card drivers.
  

• Labels missing in Project panel.
  
• Marquee selection does not select all the clips until the marquee touches the top of the track.
