The Metadata Display customization could be a little more helpful, mainly having a way for saved settings to remember the order we have placed the metadata columns in. I find that each new project I start (while I can bring up the particular fields I want again), I have to re-order them in my project window each time. Adding order to a saved setting would remove a lot of headache.

Big picture: Copying color grades between sequences is a pain. Context: I am editing several multicam sequences from the same source multicam sequence. When I color graded the source sequence, only the sequence color operation was applied to the nested sequences. Which is unfortunate because I graded each camera angle in a group operation to match the others. So my only option has been to copy and paste between all of my sequences, each Group operation for each camera angle, and the current workflow for that is horribly inefficient:Sequence 1> Color Mode Workspace> Select Clip> Select Group Operation (Eg. Camera 1)> Copy> Edit Workspace> Sequence 2> Color Mode Workspace> Sort Clip Grid> Select Clips in Group> Paste GradeFeature Fix ideas:All of the color grade, sequence, group, and clip operations made to the multicam source sequence will be reflected in all of the nested multicam sequences. I can save a group color operation as a style, which is saved uni

Implement a "constant quality" encoding option in the H.264 encoder.  Sometimes you just want to output the best or visually lossless quality files and care less about the specific bitrate.  The "adaptive bitrate match source" preset sort of does this but still selects a somewhat arbitrary bitrate and if you uncheck the source size and scale the frame rate up or down the bitrate remains unchanged.  A primer: https://superuser.com/questions/677576/what-is-crf-used-for-in-ffmpeg Honestly, I just use one ffmpeg preset that has a -crf setting of between 15-18 most of the time in a little applet called "another gui" because of how backwards Premiere's export page has become as of late and it launches 100x faster than media encoder. It makes really nice H.264s with these settings. I think we should keep all the other options for commercial broadcast delivery etc, but for web, just having a decent -crf setup is pretty nice.  https://www.stuudi

Add a Transcription Dictionary feature that allows users to define custom terms (e.g., acronyms, brand names, technical jargon) for auto transcription and captions. Users can manually add terms or upload a document (TXT, CSV, Word) with approved terminology. Premiere Pro then prioritizes these terms during speech recognition and applies correct spelling and casing. Value: Improves transcription accuracy and eliminates repetitive manual corrections, especially for corporate and technical content.

Automatic captioning in Dutch works well overall in Adobe Premiere Pro and is a valuable feature for accessibility.In my work within the Dutch government, I produce many educational and communication videos where accurate subtitles are essential. However, I currently spend significant time correcting captions because the AI does not recognize organization-specific terminology and abbreviations.The main challenges are:Domain-specific abbreviations that are not recognized Differences in pronunciation (some abbreviations are spoken as words, others letter-by-letter) Strict formatting requirements (e.g., specific uppercase/lowercase conventions)These issues are understandable given the specialized nature of this terminology. However, many organizations already maintain standardized abbreviation and terminology lists.Suggested improvement:Add support for importing or linking a custom terminology dictionary (e.g., glossary or abbreviation list) that can be used by the speech-to-text engine w

Sony cameras such as the a6700, FX30, A7sIV can capture photos in HEIF format, with a .HIF file extension. These files are supported by current versions of Adobe Camera Raw, Lightroom, and Photoshop. However they are not supported in Adobe Premiere. HEIF is the standard format of the Apple / iPhone ecosystem since 2017 (iOS 11). It is a superior alternative to JPEG for Sony shooters along with / instead of RAW. Sony HEIF supports 10-bit color 4:2:2 and HLG color space for HDR. A HEIF photo taken on an iPhone 12 with .HEIC file extension will open correctly in Premiere. However trying to import an HEIF photo from a Sony FX30 with .HIF file extension results in “File format not supported” error in Premiere 26.2.2.If I rename the .HIF Sony photo to .HEIC or .HEIF file extensions, then Premiere will allow them to import, however the photo never appears in the Source or Preview monitor, instead it just shows black.Please support Sony .HIF photos in Premiere, as they are already supported in

Why can’t I assign a keyboard shortcut to File > New > Black Video?Hi everyone,I’m trying to assign a custom keyboard shortcut in Adobe Premiere Pro for:File > New > Black VideoBut I can’t seem to find this exact command in the Keyboard Shortcuts panel, or I’m not able to assign a shortcut to it.I use Black Video often, and it would be much faster if I could create it with a keyboard shortcut instead of going through the menu every time.Is there a reason why Black Video is not available as a shortcut command?Is this a limitation in Premiere Pro, or am I missing the correct command name in the Keyboard Shortcuts search?Also, if there is any workaround, such as using a preset, macro, script, or extension, I’d appreciate any suggestions.Thanks!

Just the option to make the menu bar ('file', 'edit'...) in Premiere etc. Black instead of pure white would go a long way, as it can get really irritating during longer sessions.That along with other elements, like the right-click-menu, that are solid white even when program and OS are set to dark mode. 

Currently, Premiere Pro displays an "Estimated File Size" in the Export window, meaning the software is fully aware of the projected file size and the destination path. However, it does not cross-reference this data with the actual available space on the target drive before starting the render.Recently, during a long 1.5-hour documentary export, my export crashed on the very last frame, throwing a generic, misleading "Error Code 39 / Selector 9 (Component: H.264 of type Exporter)". After hours of troubleshooting effects and source clips, the actual culprit turned out to be a full destination disk.The Request: Please implement a simple pre-flight check in the Export workflow. If the available space on the selected drive is less than the Estimated File Size (or within a 15-20% safety margin), Premiere Pro should pop up a clear warning BEFORE processing: "Warning: The destination drive may not have enough space to complete this export. Please free up space or choose a different drive."Fur

I need a way to nativly edit all selected Sequence's Settings at once. Also, I would like to golabaly edit Premieres default new Sequence Settings, instead of it trying and guessing based on the type of media already loaded into the project.I would even accept Premiere mathcing the imported media exactly, for example, when I drag a Apple Prores 422 Proxy file into the empty timeline window, it creates a match sorce sequence at every step, accept for the codec. It creates an Apple Prores 422 LT.  

The menu bar stays at the top of the monitor, separated from the rest of the interface when I reduce its size to fit other applications on my screen.This would be a great help, so I don’t have to reach all the way out from my work window in order to use the top menu bar.

With every update, there seems to be more and more changes made that makes this software unusable. I have to look up a tutorial now on where the mask tool is! Normally, I would hover over search and type in what I need but wouldn’t you know it, for all the investment into AI features there has been zero investment in common sense utility. I cannot wait to learn DaVinci so that for my next project I don’t have rent software that changes on me so drastically, I lose time learning how to use what should never have changes to begin with.  Just add a search bar if you’re going to remove the useful tools I need man. I cannot afford to lose anymore time. 

One thing that is really missing in Premiere is a way to disable multiple audio effects at the same time.There is an FX button for visual effects but not for audio.There are some reasons why this would be helpful: A/B comparison, performance (some audio effects have a huge performance hit), quick disable during punch in.At the moment, the only way is to click on every effect and bypass it one by one. A better way could be an additional bypass button per track and/or a global bypass button (either for only one sequence or all sequences as with the global FX button for visual effects).

Hello there,I was having trouble with saving my color presets so that I don’t have to start from scratch grading my talking head clips? Is this feature available or coming in the future?

In old versions of Premiere, when importing a logo, you could add a shadow and a stroke with the same characteristics as the fonts. In the new versions, this is not possible. To add a shadow or a stroke, you need to add a drop shadow effect.

So I have switched over to the Sony Burano to shoot raw, and to my surprise, there is no raw pannel like ARRIRAW or R3D. Resolve has the functionality, but I am Premiere through and through. Can you all please please please add that functionality. This will be a popular camera with the sony Venice so Access to those tools are paramount. 

Premiere Pro should add a playback mode that skips the marked In/Out range during playback, allowing editors to audition a removal without modifying the timeline.This is not the same as Lift, Extract, Ripple Delete, Play Around, or Loop Playback. The goal is to temporarily hear and see the edit as if the marked section had been removed, while leaving the actual sequence untouched.Proposed behaviorWhen this mode is enabled:The editor marks an In and Out point around a section of the timeline. Playback starts before the In point. When playback reaches the In point, Premiere seamlessly continues from the Out point. Audio and video remain frame-accurate and sample-accurate. The timeline is not modified. The mode can be toggled on/off with a keyboard shortcut.Why this mattersEditors often need to test whether a section (ranging from seconds to whole story-arcs) can be removed before committing to a cut. This happens constantly when tightening dialogue, reducing pauses, adjusting music rhyth

I really hate using the button “from file” while using the properties panel, it just takes lots of time to look for it in the external finder window. Especially i already have it open in my existing finder tab. So would it be possible that we could do drag and drops in the properties panel? 

In After Effects when you choose frames or timecode as the time display format in the timeline it displays the playhead position in your primary units (e.g. frames), and shows the alternative measurement (e.g. timecode) beneath in smaller type. I'd like to suggest that a similar thing could be implemented in Premiere. The use case is that it's useful to see at a glance where you are in a timeline in both units, for example client notes tend to use timecode, whereas for animation I'm often working in frames. I'd suggest that the alternative display was shown to the right of the primary playhead position. I'm aware that AE only has 2 time unit display types, whereas there are 4 I think in Premiere. Perhaps for frames and feet and frames the alt display would be timecode, and for timecode the alt would be frames. Or maybe the user could just alt-click through both to select which is show for either. This is a QoL suggestion, but would make a fair difference to my working da

When you replace a clip in the timeline now doing this, it doesn’t respect the original timecode, all the clips start from 00:00:00. It would be great if it respected the original timecode!

Please make it possible to batch-apply subtitles with tracking icon images to the entire timeline at once! Isn't there any quicker workaround?

This is a rant post. The new Masking Features in Premiere Pro are painful. If I want elaborate masking, I’ll go to Photoshop or After Effects. Adding 5 clicks to every time I wanna mask seriously slows my workflow down. I am considering staying on a 2025 patch because this is so frustrating. I dont wanna mask with AI, I dont wanna have to click 25 different things, it was marvelous as it was. Simple. For a simple sequencer like premiere. This is not After Effects. Would be a fever dream if you revert but I know theres no way. AI takin over

In Beta 26.3.0, I discovered Range Markers have been added!  So I ask, “what can I do with them?”Turns out not much.What I’d like to see is a batch export timeline sections using Range Markers.  Simply add “Range Markers” to the “Range” dropdown on the export dialog.  It would then export the Range Markers as separate files with the parameters from the settings. For file names it could use the Range Marker Name (if available), or just add a numeral to the file name in the dialog.The idea is to work like CD Track Markers in Audition. You set up the range markers on the timeline, rename them, then export to discreet audio files which retain the marker names.When I have to slice up a longer file to shorter ones,  I currently have to set in/out for one section, open Export panel, make sure range in/out is selected, name the file, then mouse all the way down to the Send to AME button and click (no keyboard action can complete the export). Then rinse and repeat for each section. It will be m

Building a Plugin and I think there is no function to check if a clip has a transition…So something like getVideoTransition / getInTransition / getOutTransitionwould be super nice so i can apply existing transitions to new clips :D

I use Adobe premiere pro 23. It was stuck in software only. And gpu sniffer error massage. Tried everything from youtube tuts, turning on simulatehw, etc nothing helped.  Even you simulate it actually it doesn’t use any gpu. I just downgraded my gpu driver to this.AMD Software: Adrenalin EditionRevision NumberAdrenalin 26.3.1 (WHQL Recommended)File Size908 MBRelease Date2026-03-19
