as for now, if i want to check few options for backgrounds elements animation etc. there is no option to make a quick check like A-B test, or to have the options to keep clips on the timeline in a "muted" state so I can turn them on later as I progress with my movie . i need to put the different Backgrounds in different tracks and then disable/enable a WHOLE track at a time so I can see which BG or element is better. in this case the whole track is disabled and generally on one track there are many other elements which needs to stay visible.there should be an option, like in music DAWs to "mute"  or "unmute" one clip out of a track and to make the selection gray while it is not visible.Thank you 

Hi,We're a post house in NY, and more and more clients are requesting extensive localizations of their edits. This means copying and pasting the translated sentence from an Excel file into Premiere.I understand that there are scripts out there that allow this with mogrt files. But many of our clients require superscripted trademarks in their text, and mogrt files don't handle special characters well.Premiere already allows the export of graphics as text in a .csv. Why not reverse-engineer it?It would be wonderful if Premiere could import a CSV file and replace all the existing text in the timeline.What would be even nicer is if Premiere lets the user select which column should be imported. That would be especially handy with CSV files that contain multiple columns in several languages. I hope my prayers are heard!Best and thanks!

Hello, for reasons unknown, when I use my middle mouse it now zooms the video in and out rather than move the video frame by frame. Any advice on how to remedy this issue? Thanks 

Took me 20 minutes to select a location on my hard drive.  This is insane.  Why do you people try to reinvent Windows and other OS explorers?, you never get it right. Ideas: Allow a user to copy and paste a path.  Wow, all other software does this. Give an option to select the "current path".  Path of the prproj file. Give a browse option, common dialogs are meant for that purpose (you don't need your own silly design) Lastly, use standard interface guidelines.  That's a thought.. Sorry if I sound like a troll, but jesus!

I don't have a perfect solution for this yet, but just to get the ball rolling, oftentimes when my effects control window is narrowed due to having the timeline part of it expanded, the various effect parameters and the keyframe adjustment buttons overlap and get bunched up.  Way more often than not in this scenario I am wanting to click previous, new or next keyframe rather than adjusting the effect parameter. But the parameter will always override (as though it's sitting on top) and so I then have to re-expand out the left side of the EC window to be able to hit the buttons, then narrow it again so I can get back to fine tuning the position of keyframes on the right side. Here's a video demonstrating this:  I would love for the keyframes hitbox to always override the parameter hitbox. Or for Premiere to somehow dynamically alter this.Does this make sense? Maybe there's a better solution but this has been a big annoyance with editing in Premiere for the last 1

Since the 24.4 update, there is now a large useless blank space next to the name (or even if names are turned off, it's still there) which is really frustrating to not be able to quickly see at what point the waveform is hitting the 'ceiling' on the left channel. I want to quickly be able to see how much room I have left and it's far less intuitive than previous versions with this big blank space.  I'd suggest reverting it to how it was, or at least putting a distinct thin line where the bottom of that red box is to show the ceiling of that channel.  

I would love to be able to disable/remove the source/program zoom bars/behavior.  I never use them and many times I enable them accidentally when trying to zoom into the timeline.   Thank you!

I updated my desktop to Premiere 24.4.1 and kept my latop on 24.3. I initially had an issue with the new color palette but figured since you can change 24.4.1 to "Classic", there would be no issue. But the selection marker is demonstrably smaller in the latest version and harder to see. The attached screenshots show the same project with the same clips selected. On one it's obvious and on the other, not so much. I've never struggled so much to find my place in a timeline. Making the marker larger would help tons and probably not have so many users complaining about the colors. Thanks

The new audio crossfade handles in premiere suck. It keeps selecting the clip when I'm selecting the handle. This wasn't an issue with the previous handles, they were easily selectable 

As a documentary editor, I'm really loving the text-based editing workflow, and it has helped me out a ton. However, there are a couple of things I'd really love to see added to the existing Text window. First, It would be amazing to see direct integrations with Chat GPT or another AI that could automatically manipulate the trascript based on prompts. I'm already doing this somewhat by exporting transcripts directly into Chat GPT and generating ideas for edits...but an integrated window within Premiere that could respond and create rough cuts based on the transcript would be insanely helpful. 🙂 Secondly, I am consistently using the search feature to remove unnecessary words and phrases all at once. One thing  I would really like to see is the ability to identify and remove back-to-back repeated words when someone starts and stops. Additionally, identification of common unnecessary phrases like "I mean" or "you know" would be somewhat helpful. Loving the upda

Option to set default marker length. Or a keyboard shortcut to extend length of marker. At least enough to be able to see the label's text.

Hey friends, It's time to bring one of the best hacks of audiobooks to Premiere Pro. The beloved 1.1-1.5x playback speed. I had the idea today that it would be nice to have some slower shuttle speeds (JKL keys). Intead of just 1x, 2x, 3x, etc. It would be nice to have 1.2x - 1.5x. Sometimes 2x is just too fast to understand everything that's being said in an interview, espcially if the interviewee is speaking quickly. If you have 8 hours of interview footage to review, 1.5x would save you over 2.5 hours.

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, I tried a search but nothing came up. The EDL export options in Premiere are in need of an update.  In the world of features we need to be able to export formats beyond CMX3600, such as File 129.  Additionally, on the sound side, we need to be able to export more than 4 tracks per EDL.  We should be allowed to export as many tracks as we want in a single file.  Lastly, we need the ability to save preferences, same as we can for workspaces and project view settings.  We make EDL's for picture and sound, both are very different.  Having to manually adjust the settings each time we go to export an EDL is not ideal. Thank you!

Hi! In Premiere Pro, I I would like to request and suggest that there be a language recognition function in Hungarian language on the Create captions from transcript mode. Tank you very much! Gergő

Hello are there any plugin(or other way to do it) that would help me in creatingvisual fx..like "video synth" to create colors,noise, and plugin that video react to audio input?i want it in premiere, no after effect!thanks

Another really problematic thing: the hotkeys for "Step Forward / Backward 1 Frame" don't actually operate in frames. They operate in whatever time units the Timeline is set to. So, if the Timeline is set to Show Audio Time Units, the hotkeys only step forward or back by one audio sample. How is this helpful?Apparently, if the Timeline is set to Show Audio Time Units, there's no way to snap the current time to whole frames. Dragging the edges of clips does snap to frames, but when clicking in the Timeline to change the current time (location of play head), the cursor only snaps to audio samples.Really, the limitations of the Premiere UX just defy all rational expectations. Compare to Vegas, which has no problems A) zooming in to arbitrary levels of magnification, B) snapping to whatever the user wants to snap to, regardless of anything else, and C) accurately displaying continuous thumbnails.Really, Premiere is just such a huge disappointment.

I have searched and googled, but still haven't found anything. Is there a keyboard short cut / is it possible to assign a short cut to the Lumetri Auto Color correction? I understand it is not possible at the time being to auto color to multiple clips, but I hope to find a better way than to use the mouse and press the button in thep lumetri pannel for every clip in the sequence. Thanks.

As an editor, I'd like to request a stop to certain changes.The latest look of transition icons on the timeline are horrendous. It looks like that particular clip has been selected and it's harder to see where the transition actually starts and ends. Starting a new project is bizzarely confusing as well. It's as if you need to save everything twice. Rather than setting 'new project' and naming it, there's more hoops to jump through. Opening a project whilst in a project used to essentially close Premiere and open that new project up. Now it opens it AS WELL. What if you make changes to that, does it save in the original project, or only in the project you've opened as well as the other one? Now a small, simple project seems to have imported everything from another project that I opened at the same time, now everything's combined and all over the place.

Good morningEveryone has their own style of editing and I like to keep all the tracks minimized in my timelines.  Every time I add a new clip or image to a timeline, it appears expanded and I need to minimize it.Is there a way to stop this?  I want to drag & drop and have the tracks stay minimzed. Just one of those small, slightly irritating things that I would like to change 🙂Thanks Kim 

this might be the only way how to edit in avid, but for me this works in premiere very well too (not having to use the mouse):1. turning on the target tracks for certain tracks2. pressing a shortcut (for example) to add edit the only problem is that there is no very fast way in premiere to turn on these target tracks,because it is a toggle for all tracks for  v and a seperately, you always have to watch left and see which tracks are allready off and onin avid you have: turn off all tracks, then turning on f.e. v1 and a1 now in premiere there are source assignment presets which is greatfor me what would be fantastic if there would be target assignment presets too another option that would be great would be: one key that turns off (not toggle) all target tracks offthen with a macro keyboard, like this it would be possible to create a: all tracks off - v1 - a1 macro plugin excalibur has the option to make all target tracks off but unfortunately this can take secon

The mask in the effects control panel should allow you to create a perfect square mask.Dragging a shape using the Shift key will create a perfect circle in Photoshop and Illustrator.Premiere Pro users are frustrated because they can't do this when creating masks with effects or opacity.エフェクトコントロールパネルのマスクで完全な正方形のマスクを作成できるようにすべきだ！Shiftキーを使用して図形をドラッグすると、PhotoshopとIllustratorで完全な円を作成できます。Premiere Proユーザーは、エフェクトや不透明度でマスクを作成する時、これを行うことができないため、不満を感じています。

Can you please add a "Last Modified" time-stamp to the headers in the bins?  This would be extremely helpful to see a timestamp of when a sequence was last modified.  Sometime when sequences are copied, one might forget which one was used with the latest mods if not properly renamed when copied, LOL Best to all-

I would love to work on Premiere or Photoshop or Lightroom in the new Apple Vision Pro. Is Adoble planning to port CC to Vision Pro once it comes out? Is there a timeline? 

I usually work with interview footage. For a while now, since Adobe introduced text based editing, I have been using it and it has been incredibly helpful to work with. However, I have always felt it could be faster. The current system works by playing the video and stopping when a transcript selection has been made. Then the editor decides what to do with that selection. However, there are 2 things that happen through this process: 1) The editor has to constantly pause and play the footage while selecting the content.2) When the selection is integrated to the timeline and we continue on, the selection is overwritten. I would like to see a "highlight" form of text based editing. In this mode, the editor would have the transcript rolling along with the footage as it plays, like it currently does. However, when a selection is made, playback would not stop on the video, but the text would be highlighted in the transcript. The editor can now continue playing the footage, making h

Premiere Pro AI text to speech transcription's not in KAZAKH language. Let's change it!I see that the list of supported languages is small but right now Kazakh language and people who speak and use Premiere is growing fast. Would be nice to have Kazakh transcriptionist in your montage table or mobile app in Kazakhstan. Thumbs up and comment!
