and experienced the same problem a few more times. I am working on a project using the same exact format tapes, same encoder, same hard drive, etc. I have not found a solution yet, but I may be on to something. Importation of projects is the mechanism that is designed to get objects from one project to another.Įssentially, any time I made an 'L' cut using audio from a different video clip than it was originally paired with, the audio clips would disappear from the timeline every time I reopened the project for editing, no matter how many times I saved it. In the future, I recommend importing one project into another to get what you need instead of doing a copy/paste between open and closed projects. To that end, you should file a bug report here on the Adobe site with your exact reproducible steps and you may include my workaround if you want. Voila! The audio has returned to the sequence.Īlthough I consider it to be a minor bug, Adobe may disagree with me.

Press the 'T' (or 'M' in CS3) key to do a match frame and load the audio into the Source Monitor.ģ. In the new project, make sure that the video track that contains the missing audio is targeted.Ģ. The audio for the clip is still functioning in the Project panel.ġ. Upon saving/re-opening the project, the audio is missing from the clip in the sequence, but the representation of the clip is still there.Ĥ. If the audio was linked to video, that link is lost, even though both parts come across OK initially.ģ. Any effects come across OK and are saved properly.Ģ. It appears that some links are broken during the copy/paste operation.ġ.
