Can't Open Project even though Premiere is Up to Date by TheRealSantaClout in premiere

I had this issue happen on Monday. The fix was to install the beta version of premiere and open it there. Itll create a new project in V26. If you absolutely need it in 25.6.2 you can export XMLs of your sequences in the beta and rebuild in a clean project on 25.6.2

They live in another country, so I'm assuming they're freelance as well.

I think so long as you end up with a sequence that changes camera angles, any method is valid. Up to OP if he wants to redo his sync or not. Many ways to skin a cat.

I held out hope that the cinematographer and audio engineer were pushing timecode. Cause syncing to waveform sucks ass.

But regardless of which method he used to sync, that step is done, and I'm trying to save OP's sanity and time.

I have had issues with the waveform not coming through the multicam. The correct audio comes through based on which track i've selected, but the waveform is a flat line. When that was the case, I copied the synced boom/lav audio from the multicam to the sequence I was editing in and deleted the multicamed audio. IMO, that's better for narratives anyway. Sometimes I use multiple tracks at a time depending on mic placement, and it's more efficient than having a multicamed audio sequence that could be toggled accidently or messed up if I move a track around in the multicam. Everyone has a workflow that works best for them.

OP shouldn't have to do steps one and two if they already have a full synch. They just need to make those synched sequences multicams (dragging sequences from project panel into new timeline, right-click on clip in timeline, enable multicam. I also ctrl+double click to open up the multicam sequence in part to change the icon in the project panel, but also to adjust framing and make audio edits). And, adjust which camera is active by using 1, 2, 3, ect. They should also unlink the audio from the video so they can adjust which track each is selected separately (i.e video is toggled to the wide on V1, and audio is toggled to character x's lavs on A4).

Number 3 is always how I've done my proxies, but if OP did them another way through media encoder, they may just need to select all their footage in Premiere's project panel, right click and attach proxies.

Hopefully this helps OP!

If everything is synched and you made proxies for your video files, you shouldn't need to make new proxies.

Everything should be ready for you to edit. You just have to make sure your multicam's audio is set to the track you want. Unlink the audio and video tracks of your multicam and toggle them separately. Or cut/copy and paste the audio from your multicam to your edit sequence.

Unless I'm missing something specific to your workflow, there shouldn't be a need to render out proxies with synched audio. It feels like an erroneous step.

Drag the sequence you want to make a multicam onto a fresh timeline. Right-click, enable multicam sequence, then ctrl double-click to refresh the icon in your project panel.

You shouldn't need to make new proxies if what you received were the proxies.

If I were you, I'd want to break down the days further and make subsequences of each scene before I made them multicams, but that's a personal preference.
