Updating Premiere Pro proved to be more complicated than I expected, it was a little bit like wandering into an old mine field. Compared to the hours I spent hair-pulling trying to make it work, trying to save time and not be copying text - it was a breath of fresh air. All up that took one session of me sitting here doing that - a ocuple of hours with tweats and modifications. I was able to copy the (long) list of credits into a Simpletext file and paste them sectionally (ie via segments) into the new text vehicle. I took the various advice given in this thread and moved on, which is to say I discontinued use of Legacy Titles. Ī couple of days ago i fixed my issue with Legacy Titles. migrate me to this one, migrate the missus & her stills businsess to the old one, retire a different computer. Finally gave up on database apps.Ĭomputers have been and are awesome for so much, yet the life of working with them also comes with PAIN.Īnd I've got a brand new 24 core 128GB/RAM computer sitting here for two weeks cause I haven't had the time to take the couple days to 'do the dance'.
But then, that app is 'deprecated' as the makers either shut down or were bought out by someone else to shut it down. And after say four years, just say buh-bye and shut it down. We could keep it running on an computer in a particular OS and program to be able to produce reports & reference things, but had to switch to a new app with new ways of doing things and couldn't simply transfer data. I've been running computers in my business since what, '87 or '88? In that time, three or four times, we've had to junk our accounting data. There's some pain either way, I do understand. But either to replace your oldy moldy (in code) graphics or learn a completely new app while replacing all your oldy moldy graphics. That is the pair of options you have, and yes, I wish there was another. it's a ton more work than simply learning the new graphics in Premiere and replacing your old ones.
that means not only dumping all of your current graphics, but spending a ton of time and effort getting up to speed on a new app's processes & workflows. Fine, there's other tools/hammers out there, and competition is a good thing. And I know some have said well if "Adobe" won't fix this they'll move to another app. So for me, the pain was all a couple years ago. But I long ago simply gave up on carrying forward the old Titler, and went about replacing things. And telling them they were going to have to re-create everything was not a joy.įor those of us that are in small or one-person shops (like moi). They have their own massive libraries of graphics. Premiere is used for a ton of major network/broadcast things. The current engineers and their supervisors were very aware from the get-go in designing the new graphics 'engine' that this lack of forward-migration capability was going to be a HUGE problem for many of their biggest clients.

So the work-arounds the engineers back then did to get functionality the code supposedly didn't allow, actually make it more difficult to figure out now even what perzactly they did.
they got X done all right, but technically, it shouldn't have worked that way. There are sections of it that well, were put together. And it was built so long ago there aren't even any current staffers left from when that original code was built. We're several generations of code design and construction later, with current code having no correlation in the older code. but pretty incomprehensible to look at it now and figure out what and how it worked." Even when they've had a couple old staffers look back at that code, they can't remember what they did and how they used it. "Pretty amazing what they got out of that code, really. But that's in the nature of the change from a a very early code for graphics work, that as I've been told, was cadged together to get things done that the then-code wasn't really designed to do. It's an absolute pain there isn't some automated way to move things forward. I didn't say it was simple, nor can I see when looking at any response in this thread, that I ever even implied it.
