Thanks Casey,

I realize everyone likes to get tons of info, was just looking to see if anyone has experienced this type of sudden change.  The reason I didn't include all the codec info, etc is because it's been business as usual, then suddenly it stops importing correctly which is why I doubt it is any format or codec issue.

However - I'm using premiere pro version 6.0.5 and updated yesterday after experiencing issues but no change.  I work on a PC, Windows 8.1.  My routine has been pretty simple.  I've been working in AE 6, outputting files to DNxHD, importing in to premiere and normally no problem.  It may also import a file that didn't work on a second try or after restarting premiere.

In my mind, clearly a premiere issue.  I did also do some conversions to ProRes using CINEC, also a standard procedure and it's had same symptoms with both before and after.

Eric

Premiere version? / Patch level?
Media type? 
Container? 
Codec?
Are these camera card dumps with all card data intact?

Also…
Mac or PC?
OS level?
OS patch level?
Graphics card and driver level?

Also…
Storage device type?
Connectivity/format/bus type?

This could be caused by many many things, need more info to try to track it down.
This could require testing a lot of angles before finding the fix, but the general order I posted above it probably the order I would investigate in.
Based on what I know now.

Hello,

Not sure why but in the past couple days, Adobe Premier Pro suddenly started having import problems, the error being "importer reported a generic error".  It's not all files either but while importing a series of files, all of the same format and used previously, it will import a portion and then randomly leave others with that error.  All of the files play and open fine outside as well as in AE.  It's definitely not a format issue.

Coincidentally, when they do import right, it's hit and miss on whether the video shows in the preview screen.  So, it might show but then it won't play, just locked on a still image.

In short, Premiere Pro is horrendous at the moment serving me no purpose.

Ideas?

Thanks,

Eric
