There's probably a shortcut for this, but at the moment I go to the Media Browser, scroll to the bottom of my media to the tiny sliver of a blank space between the last file and the horizontal scroll bar, right click and select Import. I've moused over the other buttons there and I can't seen another one just to import a file.Just now I tried right-clicking around that pane to see where else brings up that right-click menu, and it's only the space above the "x of n items selected" text (to the right of the directory name) that also brings up this menu with the "Import" option.  My suggestion is that after the last item in the media list, there should be a blank row, and in the column where the coloured box is for each file, put a + button there to be clicked on to bring up the options to create a new item or import a file. That way, the vertical scroll will always scroll far enough to show the whole empty row with this + button at the start of it, and it'll be easie

In the Export > Preview pane there's a blue time thing that says where the playpoint is. When i click on this it opens for editing like so:But as soon as I click somewhere in there to put the cursor there to type in my edits, it immediately unselects. There's no way to put your cursor where you want in that little time box to edit with your keyboard where you want. The only way I can edit it with keyboard is to click to activate it and then use my keyboard right/left arrows to navigate from the right hand end of the string.  NOTE: This DOESN'T happen in the video view panel when I'm Editing a video, only in this Export > Preview screen. Adobe Premier Pro 24.2.1 B2Windows 11 

While rendering my videos, I output as MP4 and when uploading them to youtube, the codec comes out as avc1. I see some youtubers, from the moment they upload the videos, the codec comes out as vp09, but when I do it and upload it, it comes out as avc1. How can I instantly extract my videos with the VP9 codec?

Please for the sake of my sanity; Add Shortcuts for Linear, Bezier, Ease In, Ease out, etc - as well as Next- and Previous Keyframe in the Effect Controls panel. AE has them. Meanwhile I'm going mad over here with right clicks and holding shift while scrubbing in the little extra effects Timeline. Thanks & lovelukas  

As far as I can tell, it's only possible to transcribe clips one at a time or all clips in a project. It would be much more convenient to be able to select and transcribe a batch of certain clips.

Adobe Premier Pro 2024 v24.2.0 b93Windows 11 When I double click on the subtitle clip in the Subtitle timeline window I expect the Edit > Text > Captions pane to automatically move to and highlight that caption in the list (and maybe even be open for editing so I can just start typing over the text in it). At the moment, the Text > Caption pane does nothing and I have to scroll through it to find where I'm at in the video and then click the right one. Alternatively, create an opt-out option where the Edit > Text > Captions list  automatically scrolls whenever the video is playing so that the current subtitle is always highlighted in the middle of the list.

I know this has been discussed before, but don't think anything has been done about this.  Really important to be able to convert markers with duration to a subclip or to mark an in and out reflecting where the marker resides and the duration.          This was simple to do in FCP7...  and was enormous timesaver.   And would be great if you could use the tab key to navigate from name field to the duration field.       I'm sure others have more ideas about improving this feature set.   Thanks as always to the Premiere team for a great job...  

I have concern as to how this isnt already a thing for Adobe, since they are a large company, also taking a lot fo my money each year.I have a new computer, and would like to transfer all of what i have on my current PC, LUTs, Transitions, Overlays, Titles (over 400) to the new one.I don't understand why this isnt a feature, to be able to export a premiere version from one pc to the other. I have multiple people i work with who would love to be able to do the same. Installing all these one by one on each pc would take endless hours.

I would like to apply a preset to every compositions I open. That is not possible still? How come? I need to manually copy and paste the same 3 (native) plugins I use, over 100 times to all my different compositions. 

I'm sure a lot of us often work with different formats - 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 etc. and it's mildly annoying having to constantly change the zoom level when switching between sequences. I know there's the "fit" zoom level, but htis isn't always ideal, especially when moving graphics/shots off the edge of the...erm..."canvas"? "screen"? So it'd be nice if each sequence remembered how I'd previously set the zoom level, so when I open that sequence, the Program monitor switches to my chosen zoom level - just like how the timeline remembers the zoom level and playhead position I've previously chosen.On a similar theme, in the past I've suggested that PPro should remember the previously chosen zoom level when I save/close/open a project - currently it always defaults to "fit".

I typically work in a Resolve > Media Composer dailies pipeline, and have recently begun building a Resolve > PP pipeline, and I'm seeing a lack of compatible metadata that can be transferred around. I'm baffled that PP can't simply take an ALE and ingest all columns. If the functionality is there to create new columns within PP, it shouldn't be a stretch to automatically create those from an ALE. At the end of the day, editorial and the NLE become the database, so it needs to be capable of housing anything we throw at it.  For reference, in the 2022 version of Best Practices & Workflow Guide, on page 32, it explains all of the fields PP supports from an ALE, and it's only 28 items. It lacks Lens info, camera roll, tilt, audio track naming info, source resolution info, etc.  This info is used quite a bit, and would be the source info for most VFX workflows. This could easily be as simple as create the columns on import. It could even be more complex w

Here we are in 2024 and Adobe still have NOT added this option to Premiere Pro, it's frustrating when you can do this in AE in a second.  Adobe, please fix this, please add this to Premiere Pro please !

I'd love the ability for a reveal in finder functon for the timeline. So many times I have a ton of clips i'm working with and I forget where things were placed on a massive timeline. Having the ability to right click and press a "find in timeline" to jump directly to where that clip lives on the timeline would be amazing.

Having a premier or after effects feature that will be able to show me green screen in reel time would be amazing. I'd basically be using something like my Canon R5c to run a live video feed, into a laptop which will have a duplicated view onto another monitor. With that I'd like to apply the Green screen in real time. This would be a great feature and something I really needed now, but unfortunately Adobe doesn't support it.   [moved to Idea board by mod]

Hello I saved a preset of a text (graphic obtained from a caption), and I wanted to apply it to the other text graphics. I saved a presert  by doing ctrl+A (select all effects, in the effects control) then I went to the effects panel (on tle bottom left) and applied my preset to the rest of texts, and the result was that the content TEXT from the first text graphic wa transfered to all other text graphics (the original would show up but also the text of the saved preset) How to solve this?

Something I'd love to see rolled out in a future update is better fine control for manipulating the key-frame "rubber bands", when using the mouse in the timeline. I know the same thing can be done with much more precision in the effects panel, but sometimes I just want to quickly pull up the rubber band in the timeline without having to change panels and change individual keyframes. As it stands, when I click and hold the rubber band in the timeline, then slide the mouse gently up or down, nothing happens... nothing happens... nothing happens... BAM! Minus infinity! It's really hard to get the rubber band to the level I want. I'd love the behaviour to be the opposite: the band moves up or down in very small increments, instead of very large increments. I know this is an archaic way of doing it, but I do wonder what others think of this suggestion?

Currently I separate my audio types by track, Dialogue, SFX, and music each in their own tracks. There should be a way for Auto-Tagging to understand this and simply use my track assignments rather than using AI to guess. That way I would know that it's always getting it right.

Before you say to turn it off, I must say that I need this feature as everybody else who dosn't want to lose a ton of time dedicated to work just because Premiere Pro decided to crash again. But the feature interrups creative flows, critical ones. Sometimes you are deep into editing with your mind 1000% focused and Premiere decides to save in a critical moment of that process. If is a small session it just takes a second. But a what about feature films or 1 hour productions? It takes longer, a lot and then it just decides to get stuck ruining your creative flow. We live in the era of AI, Cant this thing detect when im cliccking , scrobbing, using shortcuts in the keyboard like nuts? Really? Or cant it just save quielty withouth a pop up window runing your working session?Thank you.

Why is there no purge button easily visible to reset preferences and delete the cache without closing the program, as in After Effects? With two clicks, performance issues can be solved without losing workflow or searching through poorly organised settings menus. When the button is pressed, it asks if you want to save your project, and then a window pops up asking what memory dump needs to happen, for example, checkboxes for the following:Delete ChacheClear Current System RAMClear Video RAMReset PreferencesEns.....Whatever else helps with Premiere Pro performance and proper functioning in all windowsThen, a window asks if you want to restart Premiere Pro. This would collect all knowledge and issues complained about thus far about Premiere Pro's memory problem and fix a long-standing irritation most people have with Premiere. 

Adobe have scrapped support for Rosetta moving from the Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2024 update.   As per consultation with an Adobe support agent, I was told that while the CCDA (Creative Cloud Desktop Application) still shows the ability to open using Intel, this still runs in M1 (MAC ARM) mode only.   This is confirmed in the Known issues in Premiere Pro Knowledgebase article here: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/known-issues.html#sa_src=web-messaging   This means that plugins that were developed prior to the relatively recent release of M1/M2 systems, can no longer be used with Adobe Premiere Pro. This is a huge loss.   While I understand that this was probably done in order to make performance improvements, please reconsider or find a different way to allow Premiere Pro to be booted in Rosetta mode, if a Premiere Pro user would like to boot with that option and have it remembered with the "Open using Rosetta" checkbox on macOS.   Cheers!  

No one likes extra mouse clicks. After entering a persons name here, it would be great if pressing return would close the menu and save instead of actually having to click save. 

We need noise reduction for video natively in Premiere Pro. It's time we stop using third party software like Neat Video.

I am amazed that there is no option to "feather the edge" on a simple wipe.  Yes, there are other ways to make the effect happen but they all seem to take time to 'set up'.   

Hi, I'd love it if the wizards who coded the Warp Stabilizer could create a similar tool that could turn any pan in buttery smooth ones, with adjustable ramp ups and down, even when the camera operator was not skilled enough, or had to use a non-video tripod, or tightened the tripod controls too much, or stumbled on a tripod leg when doing a pan of THE action not to be missed...   Thank you in advance!

The colorist's work lacks a global color offset ring to balance the frame. Currently, there is no possibility to quickly adjust the white balance without any effort in the presence of an offset wheel in the color panel (screenshot attached). When to appear and how long to wait? This is an incredibly necessary addition.
