Feature Requests

Here's a list of features many users would love to see on premiere pro:   1) node-based colour grading workflow (reference davinci resolve) 2) better UI for selecting and manipulating colours (the currrent colour wheels on the lutmetri colour panel are hard to use and don't allow you to get fine-tune adjustments to colours.  3) Finding and adding luts is an annoying process on lutmetri colour panel (you have to go through all your luts in your list and view them one by one.) The list is hard to manage as well. Easy to get lost once you have a bunch of luts added to the list.    There's probably more to add to the list of improvements. Please comment below if you have any sugguestions for improvements to working with colour on Premiere Pro.    Cheers!

Hey,  I am annoyed:  does the AE Team and the Premiere Team talk to each other? The only reason why i am using premiere is, becaus it works with AE well together.  But every time i duplicate something in PP it ads copy 01 copy 02 etc. (Kopieren 01)  1. the number is without underscore which can be trublesome in a server related enviroment2. Why cant we have an upcounting of the number that is alleready used?  like : sequence_01 truns into sequence_02 and not into >>>> sequence_01 copy 01  After Effects does this like a sharm. We dont have to invent the wheel new. Any Editing software I know does this.  But maybe I am to stupid to understand the concept behind this.  Then pls  enlighten me.  I want to be able to choose my name and numbering without getting a copy  The weirdest thing is:  once you enter the xxx copy 01 version >>>>

I'm posting this as an idea because I can't find anything about it, maybe I'm just not searching properly. But in Finder or Explorer when browsing files you can obviously press a letter on the keyboard and if they're in alphabetical order it'll go straight to the first file with that letter. It would appear (though correct me if I'm wrong) that you can't do that in Media Browser in Premiere Pro? We edit directly off servers with heaps of clients projects on them, and it'd save soooo much time when I'm linking assets or finding files if when I get to the clients folder I could go straight to a certain letter rather than scrolling heaps until I find it.

Perhaps not the best terminology, but I performed Enhance Speech on several clips that were going to be just B roll but ended up being used and it performed really well! But, every time I move the clip or adjust the length or trim the clip, it has to go through the whole Enhance thing again. I cut the clip into three portions after I Enhanced and now it has to "Enhance" all three sections, again. Can I lock the enhance, or how do I make it permanent???

Premiere Pro Captions Preferences Pane I work on commercials almost exclusively. I make hundreds to sometimes thousands of short 05/15/30/60 spots every year. So there are many tasks that I do over and over for each and every sequence for every project. Closed Captions are one of those repetitive tasks. I would like there to be a preference pane for Closed Captions that will allow me to set global captioning settings that become defaults for every project. I see no way to set a captioning default. I even asked your tech support tech when on a tech support call if I can do this, he had no idea either. You have a default option, but no way to modify that and set that so I do not have to work through this menu every time. I want to set 608 captions as a default because I NEVER do any other kind of captions. All my work goes to the same TV station that requires 608 captions. As it is now I have to work through that drop down menu every time. Same for languages

It would be great if the menu bar could be switched to dark mode. Image attached.Is this something that can be implemented?

I would like to change the position of the saved presets and it is not possible... everything is disorganized. It's such a simple thing that they could fix 

An absolutely essential tool for any serious colour grading: You need the ability to quickly copy and replace the colour correction from one, two or three clips prior via shortcut. Especially when you alter the colour temperature it takes SO much time to always dial in the same colour temperature/tint for EVERY clip shot under the same lighting conditions. And oftes its about ten clips in a row or more shot with the same colour temperature. Any serious colour correction suite like davici resolve (or the former adobe speedgrade) have this function. Why did adobe remove it?? I have to remove the old lumetri manually, then copy the grade from another clip and paste it manually EVERY time. This alone is a reason to roundtrip just for colour grading to resolve. PLEASE add just those three shortcuts: "Use lumetri colour settings from one, two, three clips prior"! I dont want do add a SECOND lumetri correction, I need to REPLACE the existing correction on the clip.

Lumetri's one-column layout is not efficient. I even turned my left-hand monitor 90 degrees to make a tall monitor so I spend less time scrolling up and down Lumetri's column. It would be a much better UI if we could reposition and resize the various tabs as we can with other Premiere Pro panels.

Tangent Ripple has great access to Lumetri's controls and would really help with grading in Premiere.But. It can only ever control the one Lumetri effect at the bottom of the effects control panel.Per Tangent, Premiere APIscovonly offers one set of controls in their interface, always directed to modify the last Lumetri Effect, NOT the currently selected Effect.Please fix, so 3rd-party controllers can be useful. Like many editors I use multiple effects, usually presets, to address different aspects of a shot's grade -- Much like working with nodes. There's no way I can grade efficiently with only one Lumetri effect on a clip. 

It'd be really useful to highlight all the times I've cut to, say, the B Cam, in a Multi-Cam sequence. Clips in the timeline do have their angle labled, I just don't see a way to search for it using the Find command.

Hi,Would be great to separate the timeline raster (9x16) from the output (Mercury transmit) raster in 16x9. Like multiple people, we are working with 9x16 sequences, but those sequences can't be output through a Blackmagic or Aja IO card to a regular monitor. In Davinci Resolve, there is 2 distincts setting that allow users to do this. First the sequence ratio, in our case 9x16. And you can then select your output ratio, in our case 16x9. So we are working in a 9x16 sequence but the software is able to show the sequence in a 16x9 monitor by rescaling it. I'm a postproduction integrator and that's a highly requested feature that user are asking me day after day.

In the effects control window we can limit the playback to the selected clip while only playing audio.Please make this also possible with video ( or video+audio)Most of the time you set video keyframes in this panel.It's then very annoying that you lose the pointer because it's goes on to the next clip.This also happens when you drag a keyframe to the end of the selected clip.... So myIdea- when effectscontrol window is active limit playback to the selected clip (pref setting)(or use the audio button also for video)- when timeline is selected play everything

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with the El Zone System app talked about here. I simply want to have it integrated into P.P. to aid in the pre & post production process.  I have recently discovered the power of the app called, "EL Zone System" developed by Cinematographer Ed Lachman and would like to see if others can help bring attention to this so we can have it in premier pro. More specifically, in the lumetri workspace. Below is a brief glimpse:  In short, the El Zone Stems is similar to the false color feature found in Premier Pro and other monitoring tools that helps identify differing areas of brightness. Although, it is a lot easier to distinguish & communicate the lighting contrast ratios like the key to fill ratio or key to background ratio for example compared to the false color tool. You can read more about this app here which has been adopted by many suppliers and end users already. On important stage this can be used in for us P.

I have this iPhone-recorded clip, shot in darkness with the native Camera app and set to 4K 30fps, Auto FPS on.Therefore, I expect this clip to be 24fps.The metadata of the file says:Frame rate mode : Variable Frame rate : 25.978 FPS Minimum frame rate : 24.000 FPS Maximum frame rate : 30.000 FPSPremiere Pro reports the frame rate of the clip as 25.97, which is in the file, but Resolve and FCP both bring this in as 24fps, which is what I expect.Are Resolve and FCP using the Minumum Frame rate from this file? Seems like it, and it is "more correct" I argue since the Camera app settings will definitely lead me to expect this to be a 24 frame clips.All this leads me to think Premiere Pro is choosing the wrong frame rate in this situation. If I create a new sequence from this clip that sequence is going to be or is going to encourage me to make it also 25.97, and who is served by having a 25.

When I video to the essential graphics tab it always starts at the beginning of the video, can you make it so we can set in points on the video.   [title and text edited by mod]

Here to Vent because I've been using Premiere for 3ish years daily, and on and off for 5 more than that. I want to be able to set up a personalized default (channel volume, sequences on start, bins, etc.)2I NEED to be able to save custom caption settings that automatically start there OR have multiple saved so I can pick it at the beginning of project (no just save in project)I should be able to have all caption tracks visable, don't force me to pick one, i know what I'm doing let me use them all These are my main issues that I rage about every day of my life, maybe I haven't found a way to do these things so If they're fixed please let me know!  P.S. Paying monthly and not being able to own is going to make me switch programs.

Please, add Polish language recognize for text editing and transcribe in Adobe Premiere Pro.  Thank you.

Is it possible to change default text background parametrs? I need to change background of a lot of allready existing titles and if it would be possible to set default parameters, it wold make my life much easier

I am using a 1dx mk 2 canon camera. I use it at the moment to shoot vertical video, when i import the video to the program it is not flipped vertically, so manually you have to flip each clip & scale it, or add an adjusement layer to do the same with a transform effect. - - - - This however dosent work well since you can't see the changes in the editing window so you get a really hurt neck for viewing all the vertical video horizontally. - - - - Feature fixes: 1. simply make a forced vertical mode, so that even video recorded(or video recorded that wasnt specified vertical) can be treated as such in the raw imported files. 2. make it possible to use effects in the editing window directly. / Want to see your videos with a speciel effect before adding it to the timeline? want to change the aspect ratio to see if it fits with the current video? The editing window basicly becomes a 2nd editing choise that you could save different from the main timelin

 There are no shortcuts for these useful options for many years. This'll greatly speed up the work.

As the title suggests, I'd like to be able to format substrings of a template italic or bold. So far, we have to use workarounds. 

There should be an option to remove all the transitions without deleting the sequence

I'm not sure if there are a lot of posts like this but I find the Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling feature very useful. Incorporating the Page Scroll and the Smooth Scroll in my workflow helps with my efficiency and editing style, switching from one after the other. However, this feature is buried too deep in the Preferences > Timeline > Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling. It's way too tedious for me to go there every single time to switch.  This feature should be easily accessible in the Timeline panel itself as a button to toggle or even better, allow us to put this in the Keyboard Shortcuts, which you cannot find it still.  I hope Adobe listens and puts this one in as I'm sure would help a lot of other professionals.   [text edited for better viewing, mod]

Hello Community!   Versions should be backward compatible with previous major versionsWhy? Having a feature that would give an editor backward compatibility for Premiere Pro projects from one major version back to another would be a major savings in time and hassle when receiving legacy projects from others.   Creating this idea on behalf of the community.
