# Known Adobe Issues

The following list comprises known issues that Adobe has not yet addressed. While these issues are not directly linked to Helmut4, it might be affected by them.

### Premiere Pro

* **NextID**: Starting from version 23.6.x up to 24.1.x, there are known issues related to NextIDs. When you remove an asset from the project and add new ones, a previously removed asset with its unique NodeID might be reused. This can cause problems when working with Cosmo-related nodes, like adding a proxy to a high-resolution file.<br>

  Another issue linked to the missing NextID flag is that it might cause a hiccup within Cosmo. Bins or sequences may appear twice due to the same bug, and there is no workaround available to resolve this.
* **Partial temporary workaround:** downgrade to Premiere Pro *23.5.0* or avoid removing assets and adding new ones during a single editing session.
* **Resolved version:** Premiere Pro 24.2.1+

{% hint style="danger" %}
This issue will persist if the project template was created using one of the affected versions, even after upgrading.\
\
The same applies if a project was opened once in an affected version. Since this is an Adobe-related bug, the only way to resolve it is by recreating your templates from scratch. <br>

Opening them in version CC24 and newer and saving them as new files will NOT fix this issue.

### Media Encoder

* **File handle**: AME will maintain an open file handle on XAVC assets, leading to an issue where an exported file cannot be deleted after undergoing additional processing.
  * **Temporary workaround**: to release the open file handle, please close the Adobe Media Encoder application.
  * **Resolved version:** Media Encoder 24.3

### After Effects

* **Files with layers:** Importing Photoshop (.psd) or Illustrator (.ai) files may result in a single merged layer. Preserving layers during import via Extendscript is not possible for these file types due to the absence of necessary API parameters.
  * **Temporary workaround**: exclude Illustrator and Photoshop files from your Autoimport stream, as the Cosmo Add Asset To Project Action node would convert any single layer to a merged one.
