Feature Requests

I would like a function that allows me to repeat the last number I typed by pressing Enter on the numeric keypad.

I would also like a monitor function that allows me to see the contents of the clipboard and add it to the timeline as material. I would also like a function that allows me to copy directly to the source monitor when copying on the timeline.

I originally switched from Avid MC, and I'd like a timeline function for source clips that can be accessed with the push of a button.

Dear Adobe Premiere Pro Team,I am currently working on developing an AI-powered auto video editing system that integrates with Adobe Premiere Pro. However, I have encountered significant limitations due to the way Premiere exports and represents project data (XML/JSON or other forms).Specifically:The exported XML does not fully capture complex effects applied through third-party plugins or native tools.It is not possible to accurately detect where speed ramps, transitions, and keyframe-based effects are applied on specific clips and time ranges.Many effect parameters remain hidden or inaccessible, which makes it very difficult for developers to build intelligent tools that interact with Premiere timelines in a meaningful way.I kindly request that Adobe consider: 1. Providing a richer metadata export format (e.g., JSON with full effect details and time ranges).  2. Documenting and exposing all effect parameters and clip-level transformations, including speed ramps, third-

In DaVinci Resolve there is the functions "Swap clips towards right/left" so you can easily change the order of clips. This is very useful in the editing process and good for organizing. You can swap clips by command-drag in Premiere Pro but that's very slow and impractical.  Shortcuts for swapping are an essential function, and it’s quite shocking Premiere Pro lacks it. Because this important functionality is missing, I can't really go over to Premiere Pro as the main editing program, DaVinci Resolve simply is so much quicker to edit with.

As a video editor who relies on automation to speed up my workflow, I'm requesting a feature that enables recording and replaying a sequence of actions, similar to "Actions" in Adobe Photoshop. While effect presets and copying attributes are useful for single clips, a macro-style recording tool would be far more efficient for complex, multi-step operations.Problem: Many repetitive editing tasks involve more than just applying effects. For example, a motion graphic might require creating new tracks, moving keyframes, adjusting positions, and applying multiple non-preset-friendly actions. Applying these manually to dozens of clips is a massive time sink.A perfect example of this is the common workflow for adapting vertical (phone) video material for inclusion in a horizontal (broadcast or web) video clip:Import the vertical clip.Duplicate it and place one clip directly above the other on the timeline.Select the top clip and scale it down to fit within the horizontal frame.Crop the top cl

I have a few questions about advanced usage of the transcript window - I use transcripts as an essential part of my work flow for unscripted documentary work; but I find the transcript window to be a bit flaky & unreliable at times, but I can see the potential for how this could be a much more valuable tool for me (and other non-scripted format editors) if there were a few tweaks to the functionality.A big user request from me would be greater flow through & adjustability of transcripts while editing (I edit using multicam clips to group dual record material, and I find that I have to match frame back though a couple of layers of material (edit sequence to multicam clip to source clip) to adjust who's speaking and split transcripted comments). Perhaps there is better functionality that I don't know about.Also, I'd like to be able to teach the AI language model how to pronounce some words, as I find that with both technical jargon and accents (coming from a Land Down Under…), th

I've gotten used to having separate workspaces, but if I have multiple timeline tabs open, it means I need access to them. Would it be possible to keep all my tabs open between workspaces without making me reopen them every time I change workspaces. Also, they seem to randomly close as you go back and forth. For my workflow, if I open one, I'd like it open until I close it, thank you.

Up to 2024 an obsolete effect. As of 2025 removed from the program Please bring back Bevel Alpha, as there is no alternative for this effect.

We are currently looking at blanking and black frame detection. It'd be great if Premiere could run a black frame / blanking detection tool and drop a marker whereever a black frame or line of black pixels was detected within a sequence. To have a text report exported as well would be the icing on the top! Currently looking at unning Nobeomniscope or QCTools to detect and write reports / add markers where these occur in a video but it'd be simpler if it was all in Premiere Pro. The reason for this is to do with QC before delivery.

The current Metadata effect was a good attempt to accomodate more advanced burn-in needs but it's capabilities are still very undercooked.   Here are some key features that I find missing and really need to be adressed to make this a usable tool for professional work.   Ability to define a font (globally, not per Line) Per Line option for text alignment (left, center, right) Metadata option for Sequence Name   Especially point 2 is incredibly important because you are otherwise forced to place all metadata on the left of the canvas if the string as varying width depending on the source input.  e.g. clip name 1 = C0041.MP4, clip name 2 = B001C001_180327_R1ZA.mov Putting this data center in canvas looks completely off when the longer name displays. Putting it on the right makes the longer name totally cut off.   Hope to see this addressed soon.  

I would love to be able to "lock in time" any clips or tracks on the timeline as we can do in Audition. 

While it does come off as lazy that a whole bunch of highly needed effects and transitions were bought rather than existing tools upgraded and new ones designed, the Film Impact toolset is still highly welcome.    There is a big problem however which is interopability with After Effects. If we have the desire to finish deliverables in AE rather than Premiere it is currently impossible to transfer this data over.   Please port all effects and transitions to AE. I know AE doesn't have transition functionality in the way it works in Premiere. But the way Red Giant Universe tackles it is by making effects able to select another target layer to blend the transition to and you keyframe the transition % slider. This is a perfectly acceptable solution that can be implemented. It won't copy paste from PR -> AE but you can at least manually recreate the exact same data.At the minimum I hope to at least see the effects being ported over.

When working with multiple clips in the timeline, adjusting the same video effect across all of them is unnecessarily complicated. Right now, if I change one effect setting, I have to remove the effect from all other clips, copy the new version, paste it back onto each clip, and in the case of Warp Stabilizer, manually restart the analysis for every single one.This becomes especially painful with stabilization. For example: if I want to change the smoothness from 1% to 20% and switch the method from “Subspace Warp” to “Position/Scale/Rotation,” I can’t just update the setting once. Instead, I need to delete Warp Stabilizer on all clips, paste a new instance, and then click “Analyze” on each clip individually—waiting for them to process one after another. Iterating quickly is practically impossible under these conditions. A better approach would be:When multiple clips have the same effect, let users adjust those effect parameters across all selected clips at once.For Warp Stabilize

I get Adobe changed to this annual release cycle when it moved to a subscription model and they wanted to make it seem like we're getting our money's worth - but we've accepted that the subscription model is here to stay, so we don't need this ridiculous rushed out cycle any more.  It's not helping anyone or anything, it's actually a hinderance and I'm actually quite sick of being a beta tester for a product I pay for annually. Let's go back to the days of stable software and features that have the kins worked out before release.  Thanks

I would like to see the technology for generative extend be used for a generative fill - where you can have two clips on the timeline, that you have cut out a section of the speaker talking, where normally you could use a morph cut or b-roll, but generative fill would use the last and first frames as referance, and create video to seamlessly fill the missing video sort of like morph cut,   maybe the this could be called generative morph cut.....

Is there any chance you can consider adding the ability to WARP STABILIZE to support keyframes, so you can turn up or down the levels of stabilize (or even style) on a clip. The technical use case is where clip could just needs different parameters but you want/need it to not be frame aligned between the transition of the strength of warp stabilize. Creative use case, basically if you have an already shaky shot, and just want a frame aligned transition where the stabilize comes in, and stops (eased in and out) to show for example a situation where the action needs to be calmed down. Just some ideas,  I have been fusing with warp stabilize to try and get to know it better, and felt this could be something worth while having as I was experimenting with settings.

The keyframes displayed in a clip in the timeline should auto-scale. Take this example:I have a clip in my timeline with an animated gaussian blur on it. It starts at 0, then after a second it ramps up to 60. In the timeline, if I right-click the clip and do Show Clip Keyframes > Gaussian Blur > Blurriness, I see the keyframes. But there appears to be no difference (in the y-axis) between the "0" keyframe and the "60" keyframe. Ah - I realise why - it's because the Blurriness value can go all the way up to 30,000, so the keyframes are displayed accordingly - ie. there is an imperceptible difference between a "0" keyframe and a "60" keyframe in the grand scheme of 30,000 things. I suggest that the keyframe graph displayed in a clip works just like the graph displayed in the Effect Controls panel - it auto-scales to show the lowest value at the bottom and the highest value (be it 60 or 30,000 or whatever) at the top. All other valeus are plotted accordingly in between. By

Whenever you retime a clip / change it's speed/duration, and you apply "Maintain Audio Pitch" it goes from sounding natural to sounding like its passing though a metallic filter, and it becomes more dissonant and tinny, or misaligned stereo-wise. You don't have that problem when you do not maintain audio pitch, however, now it is helium sounding. Both are unusable. I've heard you can work around with using Retime with no maintain audio pitch, and then also apply a Pitch Shifter. That is too time consuming when I need to retime 3-400 clips per project. If Adobe is expecting editors to have to load up all their audio into Audition then back into Premiere, that's a horrendously clunky solution. Is there any way to make it so that Retime along with Maintain Audio Pitch doesn't make clips sound tinny and dissonant? My client hates it and is urging me to use Final Cut because it does not have that problem. Real professionals use Premiere for their work and income source, this is fa

I like Adobe and I prefer Adobe in everything, but lately Capcut has facilitated the creation of short content in a very versatile way, very quickly and with the possibility of a medium quality sufficient to communicate in short content. I have used Adobe Rush, but it is totally unable to create quick content, they also have Adobe Express which is like Adobe's Vanvas, but it does not do what Capcut does with people who do not have much knowledge and want to publish their things, this is why I leave you the idea that you put all the effort for short content to Adobe Rush, include Adobe Firefly for the creation of short content and create a number of preset effects and make them viral for the main social networks and Adobe Premiere Pro leave it for content made by more creative professionals, and Adobe Rush is automated with AI, you can include an AI that creates scripts for images and scripts for videos. I hope this text gets somewhere. /////////////////////////////////////////////

I use the Retime feature somewhere between 300-400 times per project, so around 1,200 times per month. Whenever I retime a clip, I have never once not applied "Maintain Audio Pitch". I set my retime keyboard shortcut to 'R'. I like very much that the text field to type in your new percentage number is, by default, highlighted so that I do not have to switch over to my mouse to highlight the text field to type my new speed. I also love that if I select "Ripple Edit" under Retime just once in a project, it remains sticky and does it with every other clip I retime.However I do have to switch over to my mouse every single time to select "Maintain Audio Pitch". It is painstaking and probably compounds to add an extra hour to my edit time just to make all these clicks. As far as I am aware there is no option to turn this on as the default setting. Please, please, please - could Adobe add this, at least as an option. I know many other editors that would cry in relief for this featur

I'd like a way to assign a keyboard shortcut to change the FX badge focus on a selected clip in the timeline (motion, opacity, time remapping). I do a lot of keyframe time remapping, and right-clicking each clip gets old. Even changing the default to time remapping instead of opacity would be a win. Any of these solutions would save time in my workflow.  Thanks for considering. Upvote if you'd benefit too!

Dear Adobe Team, I’m writing to request the addition of Urdu language support in the Captions and Transcript feature of Adobe Premiere Pro. As a content creator in Pakistan, I often work with Urdu videos, and the lack of this language in the transcription options creates difficulties in producing accessible and accurate content. Urdu is spoken by over 170 million people globally, and its inclusion would greatly benefit creators across South Asia and beyond. Adding Urdu support would be a huge step forward in making Premiere Pro more inclusive and creator-friendly. Thank you for your attention to this request. Best regards,Qasim Zia [personal info deleted by mod]

Hi, One thing that would be a good shortcut in my workflow would be the ability to select while using the ripple edit tool.  As it is now, I have to go back to the selection tool, select the clips I want to trim, hit B for ripple edit tool and then trim.  Even though I'm fairly quick and I know the keyboard shortcuts instinctively, it still feels like an unneccessary extra step in the process.  Thanks!

There should be an option to keep the Project panel automatically and continuiously alphabetized. If I add a new clip it goes to the bottom, and my numbered items are always losing order if I duplicate things, which I do constantly. I want that panel to stay A-Z at all times (like Avid).
