Feature Requests

Adobe partnered with Epidemic Sound (ES) to get an plug-in extension for Premier Pro (PP). The extension is found from the menu Window>Extension. The extension improves workflow by allowing the Soundmatch feature of ES to search for music based on where you place the timeline marker in your video segments. Once you find something you like you can download it directly into your project file. The issue is that this features only works with a Commercial or Enterprise subscription of ES, which is much more expensive than the Personal subscription for non-commercial use.  The work around is finding music using the extension and Soundmatch and then going to the ES website logging in and searching for the music your just found using the extension, and downloading it to my hardrive, importing into my project files, and timeline. Same music for the same purpose just extra steps. I would like to be able to use the extension with my personal subscription to ES. When ES communicated i

As soon as a subclip goes into the timeline, its range is completely ignored. It's basially the same as putting the source clip in the timeline. Trim and slip edits can bring back frames outside the subclip's limits. I often need to pull shots from existing edited video. I can use scene detection to make a bunch of subclips, but those are only helpful when making initial edits. Once it's in the timeline it's easy to accidentally trim in neighboring shots. I'd like the subclips to be treated like nothing outside the subclip exists. 

Simple enough but doesn't seem to be available is the ability to see and adjust a layers pivot point. I have a logo I use in the lower right. I built it in PS in the position I want it but in the video I'm editing, I want it to scale up from zero rather than it just being in position when I fade up. I know how to edit the original and position it mid screen, save it as a new file, go back to Premiere and exchange the existing logo for the new one but (as in Ae) it would be faster and simpler to just have the option built in.

Those of us who use lot's of layers in Premiere would appreciate the ability to solo a layer. Be it graphics, animations, mattes or video, when you have A LOT of layers, rather than turning off all the layers you don't want (and then turning them all back on again) why not just add a solo (s) next to the other icons on the video layers. We have it for soloing audio, why not for video?  

Dear Adobe wouldn't it be possible to let Lumetri exactly work like Camera RAW oder Lightroom?What I cannot undestand ist, I can import a video in Photoshop and color grade and color correct it exactly like a RAW Picture in Camera RAW with Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks in so on. But it is so much more define and sensitive than the exact same sliders in Lumetri of Premiere. I get get much better results with Camera RAW than in Lumetri color. But its just not practical to import every video in PS first to grade it and then export it with PS to import it in Premiere. Why dont you just change the alogrithms for Lumetri to the ones in Camera RAW? Its such a bad experience to color correct/grade with Premiere like really, but is soooo fun in PS even with Video. No only the basic corrections work much better I can also use the HSL Tool of Camera RAW for example if I want to chane the colors of leafs on a tree from green to orange its one slide in Camera RAW but it takes for ages in the

Some form of Ai smart search bar in your project window could really help with searching for specific shots or clips in a hurry. Being able to search via shot type, whether the shot contains a person, what colour top they're wearing, whether the shot has trees in it, lens flare etc Don't know how possible it is but it would certainly speed up trying to find a clip in a pinch!  

Please add support to Premiere Pro to open and edit .VRO FilesIt seems bizzare that I can change the .VRO file to .MP4 and play back in most standard video players but Premiere Pro will not recognise this as a valid file to open, even when switched to a .MP4 file. 

Hello !I'd find it really interesting and useful for Premiere pro users to have a way of labelling tracks with colours like you can already do with clips. It would be extremely practical!I've made a mini photo montage to give you an idea of how it would look! Hope Adobe can add this to Premiere in a future update 🙂 

I have a set of materials in the timeline which I plan to edit later, so I put a marker above it and add some notes in its properties like a description and a name, maybe change the color. If the Ripple sequence markers option is on, the marker moves once you ripple delete something before it. But if you move this part with the marker above it via the Track select forward tool or just by selecting all the clips in this part, the marker remains in its place. I would LOVE to have such a useful feature where I can link markers to a specific set of materials in the timeline. Please VOTE!NB: no nesting, no color labeling as advice please.

Hello,  please add greek transcription to Premiere Pro  

"Dear Adobe Support Team,I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my genuine affection for Adobe, and it truly saddens me to see this lagging behind. Adobe has been an integral part of my creative journey, and witnessing this gap between expectations and the current state has been disheartening.Additionally, I have faith in you, Adobe. You've been the kingpin of this market, and with just one update, you can surpass the CapCut frenzy. I eagerly await these strides from you.I kindly urge the development team at Adobe to consider implementing urgent updates and features that would elevate Premiere Pro to a more user-centric and modern platform. Enhancements in usability, streamlined workflows, and innovative tools would greatly benefit the vast community of creators who rely on Adobe's suite of products for their projects.Thank you for considering my suggestion. Have a great day and keep up the good work.Best regards,

For some reason, I get a lot of errant double-clicks on the scrollbar at the bottom of the timeline. This causes the timeline to constantly expand to the length of the entire timeline, ruining my zoom level.  I then have to re-scrunch the timeline scrollbar to zoom into the bit I'm editing. My videos tend to be 1.5-2 hours long, so this constant zooming out is frustrating as heck. It's not breaking, it's just incredibly annoying.  It happens at least five times per edit session, and usually at the most annoying moment. I can't find a setting to turn this "feature" off.

According to @mattchristensen in this post, searching in Premiere Pro is now specific to the panel you are searching. This means that searches in the project panel don't include words found in the transcripts or markers of clips. Additionally, it is only possible to search the transcripts or markers of one clip at a time. This is extremely limiting. For example, when editing a documentary, I need to be able to search for specific keywords that appear in the transcripts or markers of all my interviews. Searching one clip at a time would be extremely slow. Please allow the search bar (aka Filter Bin Content function) to search the metadata in the transcripts, markers, keywords, and descriptions across all clips in a project. This has been possible until now.

Dear people at Adobe,Don't you think it's about time to completely rework the ancient video effects filters? I mean they're like right out of 1992! Nobody uses crap like wipe or push anymore. The COMPLETELY FREE APP "CAPCUT" completely kicks your ass in that regard. They have a plethora of filters, transisions and overlays that are acually useful. Install their app (it's free after all) and browse their impressive list of awesome filters etc. for inspiration. We pay a hefty monthly fee for crap transitions many of which my Vivanco video mixer was able to do back in the 80ies. Don't you think it's about time to update this section of the otherwise great premiere pro app?

Hello,Right now we need to connect our movie computer every 90 days to the internet to activate the subscription again. Would it be possible to introduce other options so that this can also be done offline? I would like this better for security reasons, like when we are working for example with footage from clients. Thanks and best greetings,J. E. 

It would be great to have the ability to lock Markers on the timeline and the option to allow markers to move forward/backward with the Track Selection Forward/backward Tool.

I'd like it if I could rate stretch a clip AND have it push the next clip forward in the timeline, maybe with command or option?

Gostaria de expor a idéia de uma função de me ajudaria muito.Atualmente, quando você cria um projeto e deseja abri-lo em outra máquina, basta ir na função "Gerente de Projetos" e salvar tudo.Acontece que atualmente eu editei um curso no modo produção. Nessa produção há 5 módulos (cada um numa pasta), dentro de cada pasta há 12 projetos (cada projeto corresponde a uma videoaula).Portanto, minha idéia seria a criação de um "Gerente de produção", já que atualmente pra salvar minha produção eu tenho que entrar de projeto em projeto e salvar um por um (e são mais de 50 projetos).Entrei em contato com o suporte e realmente essa função não existe. 

I would love for premiere to be like lightroom in the sense that when scrolling through videos, we can rate them 1 through 5, or flag them good or bad for later use. Than for assembling, we can select to only show the videos you've liked/ rated well, as well as delete the ones you didn't like from the project. 

Wish there was a button that muted the source panel when scrubbng through videos, and it does this for all files you click through. Yes there is a setting in preferences, but it would be so much nicer if there was just a button right there underneath the panel, to toggle mute/ unmute. 

I am auditioning about 10 music tracks for my edit at the moment, and soloing each one as I want to listen to it. It's not immediately obvious which tracks are muted/soloed and which are not, other than by looking at the M and S indicators. It'd be nice if the muted tracks (whether muted because I've set them to Mute or if I've set other track(s) to Solo) appeared dimmer than the 'live' tracks.The same could also be applied to invisible video tracks. 

Adobe, please add keframes to the essential graphics panel or at least the text effect controls panel.We need to animate shadow\background\stroke\fill and what is more important - tracking and other text properties. This is silly to go into After Effects for such simple things available in other video editing software. We used to have it in the Legacy titles which was removed long ago and since then we've had nothing.  

Dear Adobe Premiere Pro Dev Team, Would you please make it easier for Premiere users to export Multiple clips from any project using few clicks without going thru the "Adobe Media Encoder" App?I mean if there is multiple cuts in a sequance and we want to export each cut as a separate file using a single operation. Thank you in advance 

I wish PP had a modifier to allow me not just to select one track with the track select forward tool, but to then add other tracks - but not all of them, as with the unmodified behaviour. I want to move some tracks of dialogue, and associated synced sound effects, but I don't want to move the video or the audio bed underneath... I have to lock tracks and then unlock them. That's not a properly working feature, that's a workaround.  (I used to be able to do this in FCP 7!)

Syncing preferences to the cloud doesn't seem to work consistently.Every now and again, Premiere will "forget" one (or all) of my preferences, and reload the defaults. Most commonly, the "Play audio while scrubbing" checkbox gets unchecked, but often it'll be things that are less convenient to fix (or multiple things at the same time)...and regardless of how easy it is to fix, it shouldn't be necessary. If they can't avoid overwriting my existing preferences for whatever reason, could they not implement a preferences import/export function? Photoshop similarly "forgets" my custom keyboard shortcuts regularly, but at least there's an easy way to manually import/export them, so I don't need to individually change each one again every time it happens.
