Description

Sequence Inspector is a quality control panel
for Adobe Premiere Pro.

It scans your sequence and drops a marker on every black frame, exposed edge, dimmed clip, offline file, short clip and modified clip it finds. Each marker carries a timecode and file name, so you go straight to the problem instead of scrubbing the timeline by hand.

Workflow

Scan. Jump. Fix.

1

Pick your checks

Turn on the checks you need and set your thresholds. Settings are saved per project.

2

Scan the timeline

One click checks every video track, even long sequences with hundreds of clips.

3

Fix with confidence

Markers land on the timeline. Fix each issue, then re-scan until it's clean.

What it checks

Six checks, one click

Gap

Black frames

No opaque clip is rendering: empty timeline, adjustment-only stacks, or alpha media (PNG, TGA, TIF, EXR, PSD). The frame is black.

Bars

Exposed edges

Position, Scale, Crop or Rotation leave part of the frame uncovered, so black shows at the edges.

Opacity

Dimmed picture

Clip opacity is below 100% with nothing opaque underneath, so the picture plays dimmed.

Offline

Missing media

Source files are missing from disk — caught before Premiere renders the offline slate into your export.

Short clip

Accidental slivers

Video clips shorter than your threshold, usually left over from trimming.

Modified

Touched clips

Clips with non-default Position, Scale, Rotation or Crop, applied effects, or transitions.

Before every export

The last check before you deliver

A missed black frame or an offline clip in the final export means a re-render and an email you don't want to send.

Scanning the sequence takes a few seconds. Catching the mistake after delivery costs a lot more.

Good to know: Sequence Inspector checks video tracks, and doesn't change your clips or effects.
