As is possible in AE, it would be a very nice addition to be able to temporarily change the program monitors background to a desired color instead of black. I know, I know, “create a matte and underlay it..” Yes, but: AE can do it too and it makes a lot of sense as a safety feature against having accidental tiny black margins, which can easily happen if you work with letterboxed footage, or the transform effect (does not show clip frame-outlines, as changing scale in “Motion” does). Best, L

Premiere works best for me when Media Cache files and management go to my external.  Yet, if I open up a project with a different preference, it moves it my internal HD without warning.  There is a major drop-off in speed and always takes a while to figure out.  I propose locking the media cache to a location and if the software wants to switch or can’t find your current location, it needs to prompt the user to alert them to the switching of the location.  Would save me a lot of pain.

When using the “Export Frame” button, the PNG format option let’s me choose a Depth setting, but unlike the Path and Format settings, for example, this one does not remember what I picked and always defaults to 8bit on every new frame export. 

This is a feature that is available in DaVinci Resolve colour management for editors working on colour correction for DCI output (DCP creation). 

Please add this shortcut it would help set in and out points thank u!

PROBLEM: How often do I loose keyframes at start/end of clips when trimming a clip and the keyframe is then out of visible range.SOLUTION:I want the ability to make certain keyframes sticking relative to clip start and end. It would be great for presets and editing in my case!Imagine the endless possibilties of selfmade transitions.IMPLEMENTATION:It could be simple an user friendly: Let me select keyframes to stick it to: start/end/stretch with length of clip.Or there could be a second option for ‘cliplength-relative keyframing’.I name it: RESPONSIVE KEYFRAMING 😉

Dark mode is nicer on the eyes and looks better in general. For me light mode makes it harder for me to focus because i like to work at night and like ive said dark mode is just nicer on the eyes.

It’s high time we have Hinglish subtitles (Hindi + English), I think its called transliteration.

It would be very useful to be able to sort clips directly within the timeline by common attributes such as filename, recording date, length, or even metadata like the camera or lens used.It would also be great if you could select a specific section of the timeline and perform a rearrangement sort only within that selected range.When working with hundreds of clips, this would be an extremely useful feature.

Why is there still no Android app for frame.io? It is really something I could use for checking video and comments on my phone without using a crappy web browser. And while you're at it, I would love to have that app for Google Chromecast too. It would be so nice to see your result after a long day of editting, on the tv when you are sitting on the couch.  

I am interested in using the content credentials feature that will be released in future versions of Premiere. https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/content-credentials.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com But I have questions about the feature: If I create AI content in Premiere through ChatGPT or some other platform, will I be able to embed metadata about it on export? How will I be able to post the video online so viewers can access the metadata?  Will Adobe offer a way to do this or are there other distribution platforms like youtube or vimeo that will support this function? 

Reverse Match Frame should work in a production the EXACT SAME WAY that it works in a regular project. I should be able to Match Frame from a sequence in Project A, and Reverse Match Frame to that same footage in a sequence in Project B. I legitimately don’t understand what the technical limitation is here. Both sequences are linking to the same footage from the same media project within the production. I see that there are some very old requests for this feature, so I apologize for being redundant. But that just highlights how insane it is that it doesn’t exist.

# IssueWhen I try to open a production, only Premiere will open but not the production. It will only open when I go to “File > Open Production… > Select the last production (or search for the folder with the prodset file).Furthermore the projects and sequences that were opened before closing will not re-open when opening the production.I have the same problem regarding re-opening of recent sequences with normal projects (prproj).The setting for restoring opened sequences on start is checked.# Steps to reproduce I open a number of sequences (and projects in case of productions).I close Premiere after saving.I open the project or production.# Expected resultThe sequences and projects that were open on last save should be already opened.# Actual resultEither a random set of sequences will open (in case of projects) or nothing will open at all (productions).In case of projects, sometimes it works as expected but most of the it won’t. I tried if it makes a difference if source sequenc

Right Click your Footage and or Sequence > Split > Split footage in increments of 10 Minutes, 20 Minutes, 30 Minutes. (Insert the specific time of the splice) 

Currently the only way to adjust, say, the position of multiple text layers is to select them all with an image clip also selected as a sort of null object, which the gives the option to adjust the normal Properties parameters allowing you to reposition all the text layers together, but selecting multiple text layers on their own doesn’t give this option. It’s already possible to adjust some parameters of multiple text layers, such as font size, but adding properties would really help.

These old-school knobs might be great if you’re using a mixing deck with real knobs to turn, but when you’ve only got a mouse, they’re a bloody nightmare. No matter how you move the mouse, the value goes flying off in any direction, there’s no consistency, there’s absolutely no fine tuning, and there’s NO ABILITY TO ENTER THE NUMBER WITH THE KEYBOARD!!! Please, just let us type the value we want, as is possible with most other effects. These knobs are basically useless without a mixing deck. 

It would be helpful to be able to move the Anchor Point on the Transform effect in the Program Monitor like with the regular Motion Properties Anchor Point without having to match up the Position and Anchor Point Values manually every time. I'm not sure what the point is in moving the Transform Anchor Point in Program only to have the entire clip move out of place in the frame. 

At the moment there is no working third-party plugin that supports the production of S3D (Stereoscopic 3D, not VR!) in Adobe Premiere or After Effects. The plugin should be capable of editing/shifting/zooming in pixels of Full-SBS, Half-SBS 3D and upper-lower 3D formats. This is needed for stereo video footage such as from the QooCam Ego 3D, Apple Spatial Vision 3D side-by-side format and Acer Spatical Labs 3D camera.

Is it any chance for Speech-to-Text to get a Ukrainian language support in Premiere Pro? That is a huge time saver feature, but it isn't available on Ukrainian. All Ukrainian creators would be eternally grateful for our language support in this great software. 

The scenario: let’s say I have a long edit sequence nearing completion and I am adding B-roll from long source sequences. (In longform shared workflow across a Production, source sequences are used almost uniquely rather than clips).  The problem:  if I search for “big house”. (It’s a property programme) in either text or visual, the results are replicated for the items I’ve already used in my sequence. There is one search result for each item found in source sequences (great) but this is duplicated if said item is also in the edit sequence. This results in the search results “doubling up” and giving me twice as many results as there actually are. The solution: have a tick box in the search dialogue that says “Ignore tagged sequences” or even better “Ignore tagged projects” and tag the edit project/ sequences to be ignored. This way the search results from the edit sequence will be ignored.   I was going to suggest putting “ignore open sequences” but the source sequence is likely to be

I upgraded to premiere 26.0 which removed the feature where you could create a circular or rectangular mask within the gaussian blur effect. Now you have to manually add a mask to the effect which is so time consuming and not suitable for the kind of work I do with premiere. Please bring back that feature!

Does Adobe plan to add the Hebrew languageTo the list of languages that can be transcribed?The workflow will improve on several levels when it will be possible to transcribe in HebrewInside the software! 

Can we please have the option to disable these grey squares on each end of the clip on our timeline (the transition handles). They are incredibly irritating. I used to be able to click and drag clips with no problem. Now it’s so frustrating to move clips without accidentally engaging with the transition handles to create transitions between clips (which I don’t want to do).We need the option to disable these, please and thank you.And also trying to extend an audio transition doesn’t work. It often makes me trim the clip before of after. 

Hi there.  I know we can lock whole audio and video tracks in a Premiere timeline, which i use a lot.  Suggestion -->  It'd be even better if we had more accurate control over what was locked in a timeline, instead of only being able to lock entire audio or video tracks.  As in, in my timeline, I'd like to be able to click/lasso select single video/audio clips or multiple video/audio clips, anywhere throughout the timeline, and then, JUST LOCK THOSE SPECIFIC SELECTED CLIPS, similar to how I can "enable" or "disable" single clips in Premiere.  That way, for safety, I can lock certain portions of my timeline, and keep working on other parts of it, and know with confidence that no matter what I do, the parts of the timeline I locked are safe.  Often times, when working on small portion of the timeline, I can accidentally hit a key that causes unintentional and undesirable changes elsewhere in my timeline, that only later do I discover, and then have to go
